GARNET CROW (vol.26)
word scope in m.f.Es

Hello, everyone. This is Yurippe.
The cold weather is still with us; how have you been?

We are doing well, undaunted by colds and influenza.

Please take good care of yourselves too.

On February 29, we will release our coupling best album,
*GOODBYE LONELY ~Bside collection~*!

The songs were selected based on the results of your requests.

It was very interesting to see that the songs popular with fans

were sometimes surprisingly different from the songs we ourselves liked.

My personal favorite, by the way, is “夜深けの流星達.”

What songs are your favorites?

Our coupling songs include ballads, rock, pop songs,
and slightly more esoteric tracks, so there is a remarkably wide range of styles.

I think you will be able to experience many different sides of GARNET.

This album is like a jewel box of music, so please give it a listen.

It also includes an English version of “JUDY” as a bonus track.

The English translation and pronunciation supervision were provided by Yoko Blaqstone.

I think the sound of the melody has become even more poignant.

It is quite a rare recording, so please be sure to listen to this one too!

And we have a live show coming up in March.

It is sure to be a fun live show!!,

so please come and join us!

GARNET CROW (vol.27)
word scope in m.f.Es

Spring sunlight. It is a season that makes you want to start something.
Light that seems to invite you outside, making you think, “Maybe I will go for a walk when I wake up.”

Recently, for the first time in several decades, I replaced my humidifier and vacuum cleaner.

I do not really like shopping, so I wanted to choose something based on someone saying, “I use it, and it is good.”

Since we were rehearsing every day, I asked everyone at the rehearsal site,

but, as you would expect, they were all people who are very particular about things...

Functionality, ease of use, power, durability, value for money, and so on—

the discussion went on and on.

In the end I could not decide, so on the way home I ordered the number-one vacuum cleaner on Amazon

and the same humidifier we used at the rehearsal studio.

The two together cost ¥8,000.

The next day, Furui-san told me about a Dyson that cost almost half as much and said, “This one is cheap!”

Hmm... I wanted that one...

But the vacuum cleaner and humidifier arrived right away,

and they do an incredibly good job!

Home appliances have really evolved.

A room with not a speck of dust (probably) and just the right humidity.

It has become an unbelievably comfortable room.

It is so cozy that, despite the signs of spring inviting me out, I have not gone for a walk at all.

This was AZUKI Nana.
