Their debut single Blurry Eyes released in 1994 was used as the opening theme for the animated TV show DNA². In late 1996, L'Arc~en~Ciel gained worldwide attention for the first time after the release of their fourth album, True. This album includes the single the Fourth Avenue Cafe, which was used as an ending theme for the popular animated TV show Rurouni Kenshin. However, drummer sakura was arrested for drug possession and consequently all L'Arc~en~Ciel merchandise was removed from store shelves. The release of their single the Fourth Avenue Cafe was canceled and the song was immediately removed from the TV series.
sakura left the band in 1997, and former DIE IN CRIES drummer yukihiro replaced him for the REINCARNATION tour that year, subsequently serving as a support member for their first single after the incident, 虹 (Niji). Eventually, yukihiro officially joined the band and released the album HEART in 1998.
After the release of their eighth album REAL in 2000, L'Arc~en~Ciel went on a hiatus, releasing only compilation albums aside from their 2001 single, Spirit dreams inside -another dream-, the theme for the CG-animated Final Fantasy movie. During this time, each member engaged in solo projects: yukihiro with the band acid android, ken and former L'Arc~en~Ciel drummer sakura with SONS OF ALL PUSSYS, HYDE as a solo artist, and tetsu as TETSU69. On March 31st, 2004, L'Arc~en~Ciel released SMILE, their first album in four years.
On July 31st, 2004, L'Arc~en~Ciel performed their first concert in the United States at Otakon, a Japanese animation convention. They performed for an audience of more than 12,000 in Baltimore, Maryland.
They are best known outside of Japan for the song READY STEADY GO, which served as the second opening theme for the animated series Fullmetal Alchemist, and Link for the show's respective theatrical film. These songs earned them substantial Western popularity and attention to their album, SMILE, which was released in the United States by American label Tofu Records.
After more than a year since SMILE, the band released AWAKE on June 22nd, 2005, which was accompanied by ASIALIVE, L'Arc~en~Ciel's first tour to take them to South Korea and China, as well as the Japanese AWAKE tour.
The year 2006 marked the band's 15th anniversary since their debut. It was celebrated with the release of a box set of books titled L'Arc~en~Ciel BOX, re-releases of their first 15 singles along with the albums ark and ray, and the L'Anniversary live concerts held on November 25th and 26th. They also finally released the Fourth Avenue Cafe, the single canceled nearly 10 years prior, as part of their 15th anniversary celebrations.
The year 2007 saw increased activity for the band, with the release of four new singles, four DVD releases, the new album KISS, and the beginning of two back-to-back tours. The first was TOUR 2007-2008 THEATER OF KISS in Japan, followed by L'7 ~trans ASIA via PARIS~. The latter tour took them through Shanghai, Taiwan, Paris, Seoul, Hong Kong, and a return to Japan for shows in Tokyo and Osaka. At the end of this tour it was announced that the band would not tour again until their 20th anniversary in 2011. The band, however, says they're not on hiatus.
2008 saw the release of two new single from the band, DRINK IT DOWN released in April, and the double A-side NEXUS 4 / SHINE in August. Since then, HYDE has begun a new solo project with former OBLIVION DUST guitarist K.A.Z as VAMPS, with the release of a self-titled album and successful tours in Japan and the United States. With the legacy of 11 albums and 35 singles, L'Arc~en~Ciel continue to gather more and more fans throughout the world who eagerly await their return to renewed band activities.

The lyrics of L'Arc~en~Ciel's song TRUST seem to be about someone who is stuck in a deep slumber, and appears to be lost in the darkness. In the beginning, the voice of someone else echoes through the water's edge, as if calling out to this person to wake up. They find themselves in the middle of a quiet sleep, but a drop of dew breaks through the darkness bringing some light and a spiral of light invites them to reach for an even brighter future. The words "come into the light" are repeated throughout the song, as if urging the person to awaken from their slumber, trust in the light and embrace a new world that seems almost dreamlike.
The song seems to be a call to action, urging the person to come out of their slumber and reach for the light that is within their grasp. It is a message of hope and encouragement, telling them to trust in the power of the light to guide them towards a better future. The melody and harmonies add to the ethereal and surreal quality of the lyrics, like a lullaby encouraging listeners to gently fall into a peaceful state of mind.

同じリーダー作曲だけど
「Pieces」=亡くなる命、おばあちゃん、私のかけら=私の一部、思い出、
これから天に旅立つ人をゆっくり見送るという曲に対して
「TRUST」=生まれる命、子供、胎児。
戦火の中で生まれる子供、生まれても争いの絶えない世界。幸せになれない世界。
まったく真逆な皮肉になってるのがまたすごい。
抽象的な世界観になるkenちゃんの曲に対して、リーダーの曲にはわりとイメージしやすい輪郭がはっきりした言葉を選んでるのもhydeの上手さだなと思う
@LOVE-qh7ib
最後の歌詞は本来
『きっと夢のような世界』
なんだけど、Liveのアレンジで
『僕は生まれてもいいの?』
になってる。
このアレンジのお陰でこの曲が
【母の胎内で眠る赤子の歌】
という事がわかりやすい👏
ナイスアレンジ

この曲はお腹の中で優しく守られている胎児の視点が描かれているのかな?
未だ知らない外の世界に出ることに怯え母親のお腹の中の大きな海を優雅に泳いでいてその世界がじぶんの全てだと思っていた、けれども母はこう囁く
「この中はあなたのいる世界じゃないわ怖がらないで早く出ておいでこっちの世界はあなたの考えや思い次第でもっと素敵な人に出会えたり見方次第で素晴らしい世界に変えることのできる素敵な世界よ!
早くあなたに出会ってそれを教えてあげたいの、
確かにこの中は安全で誰もあなたのことを決して傷つけたりしないわ、だって私があなたをこうやって大事に守ってるんだから
けれどもそれじゃあ私はあなたを精一杯愛することができないだってあなたに出会わなければ、愛の形や愛し方を教えてあげれないもん
まるで感情のない一匹の魚を水槽の中で飼ってるみたい。決して綺麗なことばかりじゃないの、こっちの世界は残酷な表情を持ち時にあなたを傷つける事もあるし悲しませる事もある。
その分あなたには人の痛みや悲しみに寄り添ってあげられる人間に成長して欲しいの形はどうであれそうやって色んな人に平等に愛を教えてあげて欲しいの、そしてあなたに宿る炎は全てを燃え尽くし奪っていくのではなくたくさんの人が暖かさと安らぎを求め寄り添うことのできる小さくてもいいから誰にも邪魔されず汚されず争いのないそんな楽園の様な世界を少しずつでいいから作っていって欲しいの!そうすればきっとその先にあなたに幸せを与えてくれる人が待っているから、そしてそれがあなたの生きる世界だから!信じて出ておいで」
その言葉を信じていいの?

ほんっっっとに心がすうっと安らぐ、昇天してしまうような名曲。目をつむって聞きたい曲。awakeでTRUSTの「信じてもいいの?」からのmy dearで「信じていいよ」はほんと神すぎて
@kyokoyoshihara0601
いつも通り何気無く観てるけど、何か、もう素敵すぎて、あとどれくらいL'Arcを見れるんだろうかと悲しくなった。悲しくなるくらい大好きなバンド
@user-bk4iw8nb8l
Kyoko Yoshihara この動画を見る度にあなたのコメントで胸が締め付けられるような気持ちになります。L'Arc〜en〜Cielは私にとっても人生に必要不可欠なバンドです。
@owoadam
Kyoko Yoshihara 分かります。いつかのことを考えると涙が出てくるくらいです。
@user-xi3fo8no2b
めちゃくちゃ分かるけど、”歌”という形でL'Arc~en~Cielというものがこの先もずっと残るって考えると安心できる
@user-fx1md7zs4s
Kyoko Yoshihara
それは言えます。ラルクを超えるバンドとこの4人を超える才能は現れないでしょうから。その時は,ラルクを伝説のバンドとして守っていきたい❣️
@kurochan6302
あと、どれくらいだろう?

そう、思い、ながら
