F E D / Dm コード進行的には考えやすいサビのメロディーだから、POPSには似たような曲がたくさんありそうだけれど、そういうことは問題ではなくて、弾いていて楽しかったな。歌詞を考えてみたんだけど、なかなか上手くいかない・・・。作詞家さんて簡単そうに見えるけれど、実は凄く深いんだね。
Many countries prepare for the war. How sad it is, how sad they are. No. It's not theirs, but ours. We are living on the same planet. So I think that I must think about it as the problem of myself, do something about it as my country. But what can I do?
I know, I am powerless about this matter. I know, there are very complex and complicated issues of the background of this war. But I believe that people could understand and respect each other, sing together someday.
Grip the imstuments in stead of the weapons. Sing a song in stead of resentment. May the peace be with our mind.
There is the secret spring. Nobody saw it. Nobody heard it. Only the winds and the birds could reach there.
But the path to the spring would be opened when you are in the real solitude. There are the scene like that in this world. The landscape only the solist could see.
"Sakura" means "cherry blossoms" in Japanese language. We Japanese think that Sakura suggests a death and a birth, a dream and end of a dream. "All the things are the dream, so never persist anything. Devote yourself to the power of the nature, and let it be." I think it also be a philosophy of the Buddhism.
But it is not a nihilism. We believe that when we reliese our willingness, we will find ourselves in real.
All the flowers will be gone someday. And that is why the the flowers are beautiful.
All the lives will be ended. And that is why our lives are so precious.
I wrote my "dreams" when I was in kindergarten. No.1 Astronaut No.2 Novelist No.3 Manager of a campsite I think most of the boys have same experience, to dream to be an astronaut. But when people grow older, they forget about it.
But remember, the dream never forget you.
My true dream is to create a music that call the people back from their crisis and heal the solitude of life. In fact, these words are not enough. I cannot help thinking about music in my life. That's why I am here, I play piano.
This song is a tribute to my dream of kindergarten.
May the other boys, who really want to it as his dream of life, go to the space someday.

I recorded this song in 1995, when I was a high-scool student. I used a synthesizer, KORG X-5. Do you know KORG? It is a music instruments maker. I loved this instrument and created night and day many songs.
This is one of them. The rythm is not exact, and arrangement is not perfect. But it reminds me of many precious memories.
