Jpop Recommend #483 Primal by ORIGINAL LOVE

プライマル Primal

ORIGINAL LOVE


Released in February 1996, this is their 8th single.  It was used as a theme song of a TV drama, "オンリー・ユー〜愛されて〜, Only You~Aisarete~".  ORIGINAL LOVE was originally a band made of five members but from this song, it became a one-man unit by Takao Tajima.

His high-tone clear voice and soothing tune make me come back to this song from time to time even after 27 years.
