恍惚のブルース
青江三奈 Lyrics

The lyrics of 青江三奈's song 恍惚のブルース ("Hazy Blues") are a reflection on the intense and all-consuming nature of love. The first stanza speaks to the power of love, explaining that a woman's life is governed by it, and that when in its grasp, she is swept along with its current. She dreams intensely, to the point of death, and all that remains after the dream is a hazy memory. The second stanza shifts the focus to the lover, who has captivated the singer to the point where she is overcome with emotion. The blue silk rain falls, and her heart becomes damp with the weight of all she feels. And finally, the last stanza describes how the singer has been affected by the lover's actions. She has become a shell of herself, the blue pearl mist falls, and she feels as though she has turned into a clam. The hazy memory of love prevails, and once again, the singer succumbs to the "Hazy Blues."

The theme of love and its all-consuming nature is a common topic in blues music, and 恍惚のブルース is no exception. The singer is not only speaking to the experience of love, but also to the blues itself. The sadder and more melancholic aspects of love are beautifully captured in the song's melody, which is slow and haunting. The lyrics, as well as the music, invoke a sense of sadness, or loneliness, which is the hallmark of the blues.
