Singer-songwriter Yuuka has begun pre-release distribution of “Awa ni Ni Nattemo” from her long-awaited fourth album, Love Deluxe, which will be released on September 4th.
The song was written by Yuga and arranged by Takuro Okada. The song’s tale of mourning a dear friend and trying to find out what one can do touches the heart. The official visualizer created by VIDEOTAPEMUSIC has also been released on YouTube, so be sure to check it out.
On September 4th, his long-awaited fourth album “Love Deluxe” will be released, his first in about two and a half years since the hit album “On a Night Without Words” released in 2022. It includes 10 songs, including “Sunset” released digitally in June, “Don’t Remember Me” released digitally in July, and “Even if it becomes bubbles” which was released in advance. It also includes the 2024 mix of “Toi Asa” released in August 2023. The entire album was produced by Takuro Okada and recorded with the magic band consisting of familiar members Takuro Okada (Gt), Hiroki Chiba (B), Yu Taniguchi (Key), and Junpei Kamiya (Drs). It is also scheduled to be released on analog record on October 30th.
Tickets for the “Love Deluxe Tour 2024,” a solo tour with the band to promote the album in Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka, are also on sale. Don’t miss out on this opportunity.
Yuuka’s commentary on the song “Even if it becomes bubbles”
In life, there are times when you feel hopelessly depressed. Your heart is flat and no matter how much air you put in, it just keeps escaping. No matter how hard you try, you can’t find the words to help your precious friend in front of you. How can you tell someone you care about that they are very important to you? All you can do is wish to collect all the beautiful things in the world and show them to them. But if they were just there, maybe one day I’d be able to show them something. I still can’t sing a song for someone else. Maybe I wrote this song for myself because I was afraid of losing that precious friend.
