"Communication" is Hitomi Takahashi's 4th single under the Sony Records (gr8! records) label. The single was released in only one format on July 12, 2006, nearly eight months after her last single Aozora no NAMIDA. ==Overview== "" is Hitomi's fourth single, and, as of now, is her least successful single. "Communication", the a-side, was being used as the ending theme song for the Japanese TV show "MUSIC FIGHTER" during the month of July 2006. Like her past single "evergreen", this single has failed to enter the Daily Top 20 on the Oricon Charts, and even failed to enter the Weekly Top 30, its position being a weak #60. Most fans blame this on the lack of promotion Sony gave this single; an example being that there were no TV performances. However, it ranked at #6 on the "This Week's Sony Music, CD Chart! Best 10!!!" for the week of 7/10~7/16. This single marks Takahashi's beginning partnership with ex-Judy and Mary member Takuya, who produced and arranged the first two tracks on the single. The 3rd track is a cover of the song that was originally sung by the Magokoro Brothers. The entire single is described as a "new breed rock", which includes the genres of rock, emo, punk, and reggae.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 language=Japanese )〕 Lyrically, the a-side song deals with the notion that communication is extremely important in any kind of relationship, hence the title "Communication". The musical aspect of the song showcases Takahashi's quick change from singing pop/rock music to punk/rock music. Sample of the translated lyrics:〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Megchan's J-Pop Pages )〕 :I want to laugh with you, I want to trust you, and I don't care if it hurts :I want to understand you more - I can't hold back this communication :It's not enough, everything's not enough, I want to keep going :As I take the first step, the scenery changes, just start the communication 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Communication (Hitomi Takahashi song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
