Revólver
Kyosuke Himuro Lyrics

The song "REVOLVER" by Kyosuke Himuro begins with the imagery of an old shaded glass, from which eternal radiance is pouring. When one consumes this radiant liquid, the beloved one from a past night is brought to mind. The fragmented pieces of that soul and kiss scattered on the bed, if not for its hindrance, should be given to someone for safekeeping. The further one moves away from someone, the stronger the bond is felt, akin to a blooming fever. The next verse speaks of a journey on the corner of a mist-filled town, where the singer wishes to be selfish just a bit longer. If he can live more like himself than yesterday, he wouldn't be lost to the ghost of his dream. The singer acknowledges how his feelings were carried away by the wind and deposited in the river of time. The song ends with the assurance that he will never say goodbye to his love, and in separating the bond is felt closer than ever.

The name "REVOLVER" is perplexing as there isn't any mention of guns, bullets, or confrontation. The title nomenclature is opposite to the peace and serenity present in the song. The song's music video features an astronaut in a simulation room, reliving memories of his beloved. The song is one of Himuro's most celebrated pieces, alongside "Calling" and "Love & Game." The song features in Hisashi Eguchi's manga, "Stop!! Hibari-kun!", causing a re-emergence of the song in anime circles. A good deal of the video was filmed in Prague, including the scenes where Kyosuke is singing on a boat. The song carries a mid-tempo ballad style, which was unusual for Himuro's style, which was typically more rock and roll-oriented. The single of the song was released in 1992 and remained in the Oricon charts for several weeks. Besides, Yumi Matsutoya penned the lyrics for "REVOLVER," which, at that time, was a rare occurrence for her.
