In the sea of Japanese comments, I shall be an English comment. Balloon-san's song are really therapeutic. It gives off that relatable feeling despite not being understanding Japanese that well. His songs speaks in so many level. I've been a huge fan for awhile now and like always this distinct sound hits home. I am really looking forward to his new album.
I only discovered this song a few months ago. It didn't sound cool when I first listened to it but after serveral times, it just gets better and better. I find the background music unique and his voice really matches this heartbroken song ❤️
Possible meaning to the song: “Though we embrace one another, I can’t feel any love.” I believe it’s about a relationship not working right- They just don’t feel like they love each other “This is all so tasteless, Don’t you think?” The relationship is bland & Doesn’t mean anything. There’s no feelings. “I’d prefer if we didn’t dye the evening in such a dark color.” Also, I think the reason the MV is (almost) All in grey is because Of that sentence & The whole possible meaning itself. The love is bleak & grey. “Please let me be wrong, I want to bring our days to life.” One of them is tired of the bleakness & how boring it is that They’d go far enough to be wrong and make the other mad. Just some type of happening that’d be different. (This isn’t the real meaning, Just something I Made up about it.)
"I’d prefer if we didn’t dye the evening in such a dark color.” is meant to be connected with "Hey, tonight let's think about things like our 'ideal love'-". So, "Hey, tonight let's think about things like our 'ideal love' - I’d prefer if we didn’t dye the evening in such a dark color.". The animation being shown tells us that they are chatting with each other in the evening, from the boy's perspective. The girl wants to talk about what they want their relationship to be like, hence her bringing up their 'ideal love'. However, the boy doesn't want to talk about their relationship because it is loveless.
I swear this is one of his best songs and yet it's so underrated. I always come back to this. Wish more people could recognize how catchy and good this is despite portraying a melancholic tune (which I honestly think is done in an amazing way).
