DECO*27 feat. Hatsune Miku – Ai Kotoba Ⅱ | DECO*27 VOCALOID COLLECTION 2008～2012

Yep, I know what you’re thinking. It’s been quite a long while since I last posted in this blog.

A lot of things happened, but I think I’ll save the talk about those things for another post later on. Now, what I want to talk about first is the new music video released by DECO*27—which turned out to be a new rendition for one of his most popular tunes: Ai Kotoba!

This new interpretation and direct sequel to Ai Kotoba has both its lyrics written and music composed by DECO*27, while DECO*27 collaborated with kous (a VocaP famous for his eccentric works like Camille and Layering Human Shadows) for arranging the song. The illustration, on the other hand, is provided by awoko.

As usual, I’m providing the romaji lyrics for you to sing along. 🙂

Romaji

itsuka no uta mo ima ya
hyaku man sai ni natte
