理由があるのよ
毬毬してるのは
思いがあるのよ
あなたのことを別に
嫌いなわけじゃないのよ
触れて欲しくない訳じゃ
ないのよ
大切に
守っているのよ
愛を注がれて
育てられた一粒
中山の
惜しみない恵みよ
ほくほくの幸せ
あなたに

ほろりとこぼれる
懐かしい甘さほろ苦さ
秋のおとずれ
大切に
守っているのよ
愛を注がれて
育てられた一粒
中山の
惜しみない恵みよ
ほくほくの幸せ
あなたに

Marron Romance
Ehime Ken
Bringing 'Japanese Retro Pop Ballad'to the World
Ehime Ken's fifth single is-believe it or not-a love song to Nakayama Chestnuts! Known for 'singing about the charms of Ehime entirely on his own initiative,'this unique artist from Nankai Broadcasting now turns to Nakayama in Iyo City, crafting Nakayama-guri Mon Amour (Marron Romance) from a spark born on his hit radio show, 'Ehime Ken no Utacchae-hime!'
Set to wistful accordion and a dramatic retro-pop melody, the song lifts the warmth hidden beneath prickly burrs into a gentle autumn glow. And then there's Ehime Ken's voice: sweet and low, with a depth that at times recalls David Bowie-leaving an unforgettable impression from the very first listen.
Autumn light and homely comfort, a touch of humor, and a timeless croon.
Enjoy this fresh take on a local ballad straight from Ehime.
Ehime Ken's weekly radio show is already a local favorite, and regional TV appearances are on the way. With his captivating voice, presence, and storytelling, he's steadily expanding his reach from Ehime to the rest of Japan-and beyond.
