notes
The lead line is built from 2 saw +7 cents, cut lp 12 db/oct near 4680 Hz with the filter gentle bow-in as the note sustains; it sits on top of the arrangement carrying the vocal-answering hook. Written for Nakamori's 1984 album Anniversary; gear and style approximated from the album's documented production (arranger/producer credits: Ichizō Seo; period gear: Yamaha DX7 (newly ubiquitous in 1984 Japanese studios), Roland Juno-106 and a LinnDrum).
