[edit] Overview

Serenade is Tackey & Tsubasa's fourth single, and currently their lowest selling and lowest ranking single. The a-side song "Serenade" was used as the Olympus "μDIGITAL" commercial song. The other song "Starry Sky" is Tackey & Tsubasa's first Christmas themed song.

Sample of the translated lyrics:

Don't cry...serenade

In the sky that has begun to shine, is a red melody

Riding on a promise of love

Shine...serenade

Fireworks dance with music

With a kiss for you, it will never die

Only you..., those days...

With a surreal love, in reality
