Released in July 2023, this song is the theme song of a mystery/thriller movie, “スイート・マイホーム, Sweet My Home” which was released in September 1st starred by Masataka Kubota.
I liked the tune of this song that makes my heart ache. Mysterious lyrics match well with the vocal and probably matches the theme of the movie. (I can’t really tell because I haven’t watched the movie yet.) Yama is a talented artist whose identity remains secret with few appearance in the media.
This will be my last post for this blog, at least for now. Thank you for watching and I will be back when I find more songs that I would like to recommend to you.
