Shota Aratani released his major debut single “Ame” from Universal Music’s Polydor Records in August. This is his sixth single, and it is a love song with a gentle, dreamy sound that gives off a floating feeling. It is a song that expresses the desire to “live life by focusing on the things you love and the people you care about.”
The MV teaser video shows Araya in a bright red outfit walking through the forest. The full MV will premiere on the release date, Friday, October 4th, at 10:30pm.
The trailer video for the first EP “26” was also released. The work will be released on vinyl only at the tour venues from Friday, October 4th. In the trailer, you can listen to a part of all 6 songs, including the new song “Focus” and the unreleased song “Love”, so be sure to check it out.
In addition, the lineup of goods to be sold at each venue of the solo tour “1st ONE MAN LIVE TOUR “26”” has also been announced. The designs of the five items were done by Ryoya Nakazato, who also worked on the cover artwork of the previous single “Yoka”.
[Comment from Shota Aratani]
Any darkness or light, any deep pain or joy, any trivial word
I believe that they brighten up the days of someone special!
I want to live my life focusing on the things I love and the people who are important to me!
This song is filled with such feelings.
