A fast read before the full lyric

A Japanese ballad about holding onto memories and the people who make them matter.

The phrase 'kakegae no nai egao no tame ni', for the sake of that irreplaceable smile, drives the whole thing.

It's not about grand romance so much as the basic, stubborn need to keep a specific happiness from fading.

Editor's note

Baekhyun's Stars and the Promise to Remember

A Japanese ballad about holding onto memories and the people who make them matter.

aenai to atama ga karappo ni naru yo

The phrase 'kakegae no nai egao no tame ni', for the sake of that irreplaceable smile, drives the whole thing. It's not about grand romance so much as the basic, stubborn need to keep a specific happiness from fading. He'll say it 'nandodemo', over and over, because forgetting feels like a kind of emptiness.

It's a plain description of absence that cuts deeper than more dramatic language might. The head isn't filled with sad thoughts; it's just empty, and that's the problem.

The way the phrase 'arifureta kotobadakedo', just these ordinary words, hangs in the air before he says 'thank you' again. It admits the language is common, but the feeling underneath isn't.
