They started recording their first album, BIRD, in February 2002. The album was released in April of the same year, and after touring the country to support it, ROSSO went on a break.

Chiba Yusuke went back to focus on thee michelle gun elephant, but when this band broke up in 2003, ROSSO was reformed with a revised lineup. Drums were now played by Sato Minoru, and Imai Akinobu joined on guitar. This second lineup recorded the album DIRTY KARAT, as well as several singles and an EP before disbanding during the summer of 2006.

After ROSSO’s disbandment, Chiba and Imai went on to record a mostly instrumental album as MIDNIGHT BANKROBBERS, and later formed The Birthday.

JETヘル・ベイビーヘそ出して

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to ROSSO's song "Lemon Crazy" convey a sense of youthful rebelliousness and a lust for life. The opening lines, "JET heru・beibii he sashidashite, hebido rinku, buraunrongu・hea nabi kasete uinku" can be interpreted as a call for adventure and excitement. The singer wants to break free, have a heavy drink, and let his long brown hair flow while winking mischievously.

The chorus, "Nan ni demo amazuppai remon fureibaa, ore no tanku mo sumairu de, sabichimatta hagare ochita sono ato ni nokotteta hagane wa, taiyou o hanekaesu aoi daaku saido, piisu・maaku FUCK OFF, remon kureijii, remon kureijii I LOVE YOU, remon kureijii," shows a bittersweet attitude towards life. The singer acknowledges that everything has a sweet and sour lemon flavor, including his own experiences. His tank (representing his emotions) has become rusty and worn, but what remains of his steel is a blue dark side that reflects the sun. He asserts his declaration of love for this lemon craziness despite the hardships and challenges it brings.

In the second verse, the singer expresses the desire to go home and watch Tom and Jerry on TV, while making popcorn and cuddling on the small couch. The mention of a hurricane and a flying scooter implies a chaotic and unpredictable atmosphere. Despite the storm outside, the singer reiterates his love for this lemon craziness, emphasizing his commitment to embracing life's ups and downs.

Overall, "Lemon Crazy" conveys a message of embracing the unpredictable and sometimes challenging aspects of life, finding beauty in the chaos, and expressing a rebellious love for the zestiness of existence.
