A Human Light

"A Human Light" is a Japanese neo-soul and J-Pop ballad told from the perspective of an ayakashi, a supernatural being quietly observing human life.

The song portrays the strange beauty of people who make promises as if they could live forever, hold on to love even though they know it may disappear, and protect their fragile happiness with both hands. The ayakashi watches them with amusement, sorrow, and unexpected tenderness.

Built around intimate male vocals, warm jazzy piano, a deep mellow bass groove, and subtle Japanese textures, the track captures the fragile light that continues to shine within human beings.
