Lyric

Tokyo Nostalgia

westman8

今さら戻れない程 変わってく日常に

「ありがとう」心から伝えられるといいな

笑顔に疲れては何度も繰り返す

どれだけ大人びても うつむかないように

いつか無邪気な私が思い出せたら

その時は会いに行くよ

さめない夢なら それも良いかな

あきれるくらい切ない

季節が変わってくたび 弱さが増えていく

ひとつも掴めないまま帰れない どうしても

前に進むしかない 素顔のままでいたい

自分で選ぶのならば 振り返りはしない

いつも無邪気なあなたが離れないから

ふとしたときの ため息

さめない夢なら そのままでいい

過ぎていくのも優しい

いつか無邪気な私が思い出せたら

その時は会いに行くよ

さめない夢なら それも良いかな

あきれるくらい切ない

Yohei Nishi, a member of the four-piece pop band "balconny" based in Fukuoka, will begin his solo career under the name "westman8" in 2025. Mini albums containing songs created using music generation AI will be released consecutively from February 4, 2025.

The first mini album "the City Pop vol.1" will be released on February 4, the second mini album "the Pops vol.1" on February 14, and the third mini album "the Pops vol.2" on February 24.

For vol.1, this work selects songs with "male vocals" from the songs produced, and the genres are wide-ranging, ranging from R&B, catchy dance pop, classic straight pop, and ballads, making it a lineup that will touch the hearts of people of all ages.

In particular, most of the songs on this album are "early works from when we started creating AI," and you can feel the initial impulse of starting out by feeling your way around. In addition, they deliberately did not make minor corrections such as vocal mistakes to give it the "AI flavor."
