…….

とにもかくにも、唄モノの男女ユニットである。ただ決して普通ではない。
ロックバンドのヴォーカリストであった、メインVo木村（女）のパワフルでソウルフルな声と、シンガーソングライターであった、ギターVo橋詰（男）の伸びのある透き通った声。

一見するとはまりそうにない二つの声が創り出す音楽は、男女ユニット、いや唄モノユニットの歴史すらも覆すほど強烈なインパクトを持って観る者を圧倒する。
時にロックで、時にポップ。キャッチーでありマニアック。

誰がどう見たって唯一無二であり、もはや何が起こるかわからないステージに、観客は知らず知らずの内に引き込まれていく。
クセになること間違いなしの若手アーティストである。

Honey
蜜 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I sat there looking ugly
Looking ugly and mean
I knew what you were saying
You were saying to me

Baby's got some new rules
Baby, said she's had it with me
It seems a shame to waste your time on me

It seems a lot to waste your time for me

Left me to love
What it's doing to me

There's a lot of honey in this world
Baby, this honey's for me
You've got to do what you do
Do it with me
It seems a shame you waste your time for me

Left me to love
What it's doing to me

Knocked silly
Knocked flat
Sideways down
These things they pick you up
And they turn you around
Say your piece
Say you're sweet for me
It's all the same to share the pain with me
It's all the same, save the shame for me

Left me to love
What it's doing to me

Baby's got some new rules
Baby said she's had it with me
There's a fly in the honey
Baby's got a baby with me
That's a part
That's a part of me

Left me to love
What it's doing to me

Left me to love
What it's doing to me

What about me?
What about me?
