Kono Kimochi

Miki Ōtsu

もっと 知りたいよ

いいえ 知ってほしい

あなたのこと わたしのこと

少しずつでいいから

目には見えなくて

もどかしいけれど

でも確かに ここにあるの

このキモチ どうすればいい?

いつだって 精一杯

心を広げて

あなたに やさしく

ただ やさしくね

あれたらいいのに ごめんね

誰よりも そばにいたい

そう願うほどに

素直になるって?

信じることって?

(...何かが怖くて 言えない...)

もっと 知りたいよ

もっと 知ってほしい

あなたのこと わたしのこと

ひとつずつでいいよね

目には見えなくて

もどかしいけれど

ほら確かに ここにあるの

このキモチ どうすればいい?

拭えない 不安や戸惑いさえ

愛しさに変えていけたらいいのに

すれ違いを繰り返し だけど・・・

そっと 触れたいよ

だって あなただから

隠せないよ 涙さえも

大切に想うから

手には取れなくて

でも だから 嬉しいの

永遠さえ ここにあるの

このキモチ

こんなにも嬉しいの。

    Kono Kimochi (Instrumental)

    Miki Ōtsu

"I can't hold it by hand.
But that's why I'm happy.

Even eternity is here.
With these feelings, I'm so happy."

Where do the feelings to love a person arise?
Where does my heart stay?

These feelings that I hug in my heart are surely here and just about to overflow, but...

"When I love someone and am fascinated, the world I have seen widely wavers. But the feelings that began to grow would someday get over painfulness and change into great joy," says the singer-songwriter Miki Ōtsu.

This piece straightly depicts the heartbreaking feelings of a person who falls in love. The refreshing symphonic arrangement by Yuki Hirasedo and the warm sound, including her more than 20 singing voices in layers, would gently comfort people who worry about love.

By the overlapping blue colors, she has expressed transparency and pureness felt by the whole piece.<Musicians> Violin:Anzu Suhara Cello:Jumpei Hayashida Arrangement&Programming:Yuki Hirasedo Mixing&Matering:Keisuke Mukai

Artist Profile

  • Miki Ōtsu

    Miki Ōtsu started learning to play electronic organ at the age of six. She liked to sing from an early age and was willing to go into music in the future. During her adolescence, she began to write her original songs as if she had written a diary about her feelings that she could not tell anyone. In 1997, a demo tape triggered her debut as the vocalist for a commercial for "JR Tokai - Shisendo -". Her singing created a sensation that it didn't just stay in Japan. She received high praise overseas as well and won a finalist for International Broadcasting Award. Since then, she has continued to be highly valued, producing songs as a lyricist, composer, and singer for many singers, animations, and games including more than 40 commercials and "Bokura ga Ita", "Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei", and "Gokujo Seitokai", and many of which were ranked high on the charts. In 2001, the single produced by musicians living in L.A., "Rain Slipping Through Fingers" and "Send Back to the Sky", was released. The CD features the jacket (CD booklet) designed by art director Yukio Abe, who is highly regarded both in Japan and overseas. Around the same time, a collection of her poems featuring illustrations by him was released. In 2006, she released a new song, "Rather than Counting the Stars" which was inserted into the TV animation of the popular comic "Bokura ga Italicization" and it attracted attention in the foreign media. Besides, Miki Ōtsu continued to work energetically with various artists such as illustrator Saori Tanabe, producing collaborative works, performing lives, and conducting music education activities. Due to her repeated illness, she temporarily stopped her activities, but she positively resumed her activities in 2020. Her clear singing voice with warmth and strong appeal, the world of lyrics that beautifully depicts the sensitivity of people's hearts, and the melodies that are stuck in our heads continue to touch the heart of many people.
