cross-dominace is a group of artists led by Ryo’LEFTY’Miyata, who collaborate with artists of all nationalities, genres, genders and generations to deliver music to the world.
The song “Singin’ in the Rain” is a dance pop song with lyrics entirely in English. It was produced by artists including DÉ DÉ MOUSE and Ywe, who participates as a singer-songwriter in Ryo’LEFTY’Miyata’s studio.Ryo’LEFTY’Miyata’s J-POP chord feel and DÉ DÉ MOUSE’s dance music beat feel are fused together in this co-written track.When the song sketch was completed, it became a track that gave the feeling of “coolness” and “rain,” and the title “Singin’ in the Rain” was chosen based on the intuition at that time.
The lyrics were inspired by the movie “Singin’ in the Rain.” Rain falls on our bodies from the sky, soaks into the soil, flows into the ocean, evaporates, turns into clouds, and then turns into rain again… All phenomena that seem unconnected at first glance are connected, and the same goes for us humans. Even if we appear separate at first glance, we are all connected. Even if we get wet in the rain, no matter what time or place, we are not alone, and we are connected to all other people.
It’s an emotional song that will gently clear your mind. Please give it a listen.
*Co-writing: A style in which multiple artists or creators work together to create a song.
