週末の雨が上がる 路地裏の隠れ家

重たい木扉(ドア)を押し開ける 十時の指定席(シート)

ポケットの底 冷たい硬貨(コイン)を握りしめ

カウンターの端 いつもの横顔を探す

国道(いちろく)沿い 似た者同士はただの檻で

いつか壊れる空騒ぎを 背にして逃げた

なのに都会(ここ)では 同じ沈黙(おと)を選ぶだけで

ほどけた心が 自由に泳ぐ気がした

硬貨(コイン)が落ちる 機械腕(アーム)が動く

硝子の向こう 黒い円盤(レコード)が回り出す

「それ、僕も選ぼうとしてた」

不意に落とされた声に 呼吸(いき)が止まる

振り向かないまま 硝子に映る影を見る

重なる視線(め)が 微熱のように触れる

「B面のほうが好きなんだ」と笑うから

隠してきた私の歴史(かこ)を 見透かされたようで

「私もです」と 喉元まで出た共感(ことば)を

飲み込むのは 期待の先の喪失(おわり)が怖いから

米軍機(フライト)の爆音(おと)に消えた 幾つもの約束

始まれば終わること 痛いほど知っている

最後の和音(コード)が溶けて 静寂(しじま)が落ちる

振り向けば始まる この透明な境界線(ライン)

言葉の代わりに もう一枚の硬貨(コイン)を

あなたの次の選曲(きょく)に そっと重ねて響かせる

「いい曲ですね」と 主語をずらして席を立つ

冷めたふりして 指先はまだ熱いまま

重たい木扉(ドア)を押し開け 夜気に触れる時

一秒だけ振り返る 次の週末(きんよう)を予感して

    Glass Jukebox

    Akemi

Glass Jukebox is a mid tempo city pop track set in a hidden bar down a back alley after the rain, portraying the quiet tension between unspoken connection and the fear of what may begin.
A heavy wooden door, a cold coin in the pocket, and a black record spinning behind glass create a nocturnal scene where choice, silence, and shared taste become a form of intimacy.

Performed by the fictional AI singer Akemi, the song captures the emotions of adulthood that already knows how endings arrive, yet still cannot help reaching toward the same melody as someone else.
Inspired by the late 1970s to early 1980s Japanese new music and city pop, the track reimagines that era urban lyricism through a modern and restrained sound.

Instead of speaking, she lets another coin fall beside his next selection.
It is a small gesture, but one that carries the fragile warmth of anticipation, standing on the transparent line between caution and desire.
Produced by nanayon music.

Artist Profile

    A music project that reimagines the melancholic mood and nighttime glow of late 1970s to early 1980s Japanese City Pop and New Music through AI-assisted production and human direction. Akemi is a fictional singer with a backstory of being from Yamato City, Kanagawa, Japan. She sings of urban solitude, grown-up love, and bittersweet afterglow in a noir-tinged city pop sound. Lyrics, composition, vocals, and visuals are created using generative tools and curated through editing. This is an experimental project exploring the human warmth and nostalgia that can emerge from AI.
