Lyric

Morning Bird

Togo Kiyomaru

明けの海が静かに揺れている

僕らのすべてを包むように

赤く爆ぜた花も揺れている

音もなく君の髪がなびいて

風が吹いていた

握りしめてふやけてしまった

古びた呪いの皺をのばし

別れの前に愛をくちづけて

寄せる潮騒に放り投げたら

飛び立つのさ

ひかりの中 君が笑っている

僕らのすべてを許すように

儚く香る未来の予感を

今だけはきっと離さないように

抱きしめていた

This is a narrative work produced by Togo Kiyomaru alone in the living room of his parents' house where he spent his boyhood and adolescence.

His previous work, "Q tune," released in 2019, featured over 10 guest performers and engineer Toshihiko Kasai, pursuing a groovy sound incorporating dance music and world music. The following year brought a worldwide pandemic, and at the same time, the birth of Kiyomaru Togo's first child. The rapid changes in society on a global scale and the growing new family shook his conventional values from both macro and micro perspectives.

As if facing the fundamental questions of what is music, what is singing, and what is myself, I completed a guitar-playing album with a simple sound image in the living room of my parents' house where I can spend time peacefully.

The song is about the joy of living and working, the longing for a new world, and the regret for what will be left behind. The number of notes and rhythms are reduced to the bare minimum, and the harmony of the voices is sometimes overlapped to delicately weave the music.
