Yasashiku suru yori Kiss wo shite – Watanabe Miyuki

So after I reviewed this single’s coupling Song ‚Harukaze Pianissimo‚ let’s move on to Milky’s first solo Single.

So, Milky (Watanabe Miyuki) was the winner of 2014’s Janken Tournament and therefore won the prize of an own solo debut. Yasashiku suru yori Kiss wo shite is the title of her Solo debut which can be translated into Instead of Being Kind, Kiss Me. A really fitting title for Milky’s character.

The song actually is about a girl (Milky) being tired of waiting for her crush to confess his love for her. Like the title already says, she wants the boy to be more proactive instead of being kind and considerate.

The song itself is a old-fashioned idol song. Meaning like an idol song of the 80’s meaning that it also follows this genre -tune and also lyrics wise. It kind of reminds me of a few Matsuda Seiko songs I listened to once. Milky’s voice really fits this song’s tune since it is a kind of slow song and also doesn’t have much high notes in it.

But let’s continue with the MV

 

What a way to start! Why is Milky crying?
