A self-cover of a song originally written for Airi Suzuki. First released digitally in the spring of 2020, the music video - filmed during the recording sessions - also featured Takui Nakajima himself.
Driven by an infectious call-and-response dynamic, the track stands out as a rare modern-day rock 'n' roll anthem. Interestingly, the song's core melody had actually existed since around 2002 without lyrics, remaining shelved for years before Nakajima suddenly rediscovered it. Inspired by the image of Suzuki performing live, he completed the lyrics specifically with her concerts in mind.
Nakajima began performing the song live himself from late 2024 onward, and it was finally included on his 2026 album GLITTER. Just like "Jibun First" he performs the song live while playing side guitar himself.
Every element of the band's performance feels incredibly satisfying: you's free-spirited guitar work, SHINGO's lively and agile fills, and NAOKI's blues-infused bass phrases all come together naturally. The song reminds listeners that true rock 'n' roll doesn't need a reason to be fun. There's also a strong sense that its call-and-response sections will continue evolving through future live performances, growing into an even more explosive concert staple. It's the kind of song that becomes more exciting with every listen.
