Background
M1 is the song which Ringo Sheena wrote imagining Kabuki-cho before she actually visited there.
M2 is a cover of Cyndi Lauper's song. However, she referred to Susanna Hoffs version.
The Japanese translation appeared in the liner notes is the lyrics which Sheena translated freely.
M3 is the songs in which she recorded Kabukichō no Joō and Marunouci Sadistic in the style of singing to her own guitar accompaniment.
She actually sang in outdoor at first.
Since it didn’t sound like reality, she re-recorded it in studio and added sound effects, such as footsteps and noises of bustle.
Track listing
All songs written and composed by Ringo Sheena, unless otherwise noted.
