TM NETWORK is a Japanese Pop/Rock band. Consisted of Tetsuya Komuro (Keyboardist), Takashi Utsunomiya (Vocalist) and Naoto Kine (Guitarist).
They were original members of a band call Speedway during their school days. The three of them formed TM NETWORK. Their name is commonly thought to stand for "Time Machine Network". However, on September 6th 2006 on an episode of Trivia no Izumi claimed that TM actually stands for 'Tama', the district from Tokyo they all came from. While Trivia no Izumi claims that TM stands for 'Tama' Tetsuya Komuro himself as early as 1984 on the show LiveG, has said that the TM stands for Time Machine.
On August 22, 1983 TM NETWORK took part in "the Fresh Sounds Contest" (フレッシュサウンズコンテスト) which was sponsored by Coca-Cola. The song they performed was "1974" and it was aired on TBS. This was their first step towards a record deal.
They made their record debut with single "Kinyoubi no lion (Friday's Lion)" and album "RAINBOW RAINBOW" on April 21, 1984.
They became famous first in Hokkaido. After a while they had more hits with the songs "Self Control", "GET WILD" and others, soon they became one of the most popular pop/rock bands in Japan.
Several musicians have supported them at their live shows as backing bands such as Tak Matsumoto (B'z), Daisuke Asakura (access), and more.
They changed their name to TMN in 1990, and broke up in 1994. They had reunited under their old name of TM NETWORK in 1999.
They have also compiled with the overseas musicians such as Julio Iglesias Jr., Sheila E, Lee-Hom Wang for "Happiness×3 Loneliness×3".

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
優しくうなずく君に 言葉はいらない UH...
いつか こんな日がふたりに訪れることを
Merry X'mas響く夜は 誰も知らなかった UH...
I've been waitin' for this night
空に雪は降り続けた
I've been waitin' for this night
人はそれぞれの苦しみを 話してしまいたい
ひとりの夜は特別さ 君も泣いていた UH...
同じ雪の音を聞いて 同じ淋しさを感じて
すぐそこにある出逢いには 気づかずにいた UH...
You've been waitin' for this night
言葉もぬくもりも夢も
You've been waitin' for this night
冬の日が深く閉ざしてた
一年前の哀しげな 君のまなざしが
めぐり来る季節の中で ほほえみに変わる UH...
ひとりきりの夜は今も 忘れないけれど
「いつまでも いつまでも 君はぼくのものだよ」
UH...
I've been waitin' for this night
空に雪は降り続けた
I've been waitin' for this night
永遠に続く夜だった
I've been waitin' for this night
I've been waitin' for this night
The lyrics to TM NETWORK's song "This Night" reflect the emotions of two people who have been waiting for a special night to come. The first verse expresses the singer's feelings towards their loved one, assuring them that they belong to each other forever. The second verse describes the special night as one that nobody knew would happen, underscored by the Christmas atmosphere that seems to permeate the surroundings. The chorus repeats the line "I've been waiting for this night" to emphasize the prolonged anticipation for this moment, noting that it is a night that will last forever.
The bridge of the song reveals some struggles that both parties had gone through - the desire to talk about their own pain and the fear of being alone. Despite this, they were eventually brought together through the snow and the loneliness, unaware of the destiny that waited for them. The final verse reflects on the past year, noting an emotional moment experienced by the loved one and how it has now turned into a smile. The lyrics end with a reassurance that the person will always belong to the singer.
Overall, the song conveys the message of love, hope, and patience, and the importance of appreciating special moments when they occur.

雪が降るとThisNightのイントロが頭の中に流れてきます。名曲ぞろいのアルバム「humansystem」のラストの曲、ほんま何回聴いたことか(^^♪ TMのバラードではこの曲とTIMEがめちゃくちゃ好きです。
hamilton jaker
TMの真髄はこの曲だったり、Fool on the planetだったり、Timeだったり、僕はウツさんのバラード好きでした。こういう曲があって、そこから弾けるTMサウンドが有ったりで、２極あったので、聴いてこれたと思います
