舟唄
八代亜紀 Lyrics

The song "舟唄" by 八代亜紀 is a beautiful ballad about one's love for a girl and the memories that come with it. The singer talks about the things that are good in life - warm sake, grilled squid, a quiet woman, and soft lighting. The singer then talks about the memories that come to mind when they drink, and how they are transported back to a time when they were with their beloved. The singer mentions that if they cry, they will start singing the "舟唄," which is a song about boats and the ocean. The singer then talks about what is important in a bar - no need for fancy decorations, just a view of the harbor and the sound of the foghorn. As the singer continues to drink, they become more and more emotional, and the memories of their lost love come flooding back. The song ends with the singer singing the "舟唄" and letting their sorrow and pain flow out of them.

In this song, 八代亜紀 sings about the importance of memories and how they can be triggered by certain things, in this case, warm sake. The lyrics capture the sentiment of nostalgia and how it can be bittersweet. The song also captures the simple pleasures in life, like a good view of the harbor, grilled squid, and warm sake. The melody of the song is hauntingly beautiful and adds to the overall feeling of sadness and longing that the lyrics convey.
