Lyrics[]
渡良瀬橋で見る夕日を あなたはとても 好きだったわ
きれいなとこで育ったね ここに住みたいと言った
電車にゆられこの街まで あなたは会いに来てくれたわ
私は今もあの頃を 忘れられず生きてます
今でも 八雲神社へお参りすると あなたのこと祈るわ
願い事一つ叶うなら あの頃に戻りたい
床屋の角にポツンとある 公衆電話おぼえてますか
きのう思わずかけたくて なんども受話器とったの
この間 渡良瀬川の河原に降りて ずっと流れ見てたわ
北風がとても冷たくて 風邪をひいちゃいました
誰のせいでもない あなたがこの街で
暮らせないことわかってたの
なんども悩んだわ だけど私ここを
離れて暮らすこと出来ない
あなたが好きだと言った この街並みが
今日も暮れてゆきます
広い空と遠くの山々 二人で歩いた街
夕日がきれいな街

The way the sunset looked from Watarase Bridge— You loved it so much
“You were raised in such a beautiful place. I want to live here,” you said
Riding the rickety train, you came all the way to this town to see me
Even now, I live unable to forget that time
Even now, when I visit Yakumo Shrine I pray about you
If I could have one wish granted, I’d want to go back to that time
Do you remember the lone public telephone, standing by the corner of the barbershop?
Yesterday I wanted to call you, despite myself I picked up the phone there so many times
The other day, I went down to Watarase River’s riverbed and watched the river flow for a long time
The north wind was quite chilly, I ended up catching a cold
It’s nobody’s fault—I’d known that you
weren’t able to live in this town
I worried over it countless times, but I
can’t live away from here
Once again, the sun sinks today
on the townscape you said you loved
The vast, open sky and distant mountain range—the town we walked through together
The town with the beautiful sunset

Liner Notes[]
プロデューサーつんく♂がリスペクトする「森高千里」をカバー
というコンセプトを掲げて今回の松浦亜弥の新曲の制作に取り掛かりました。
当時の森高さんはドラムを自ら演奏されていたので、
どんなプロミュージシャンでも再現できない、独特なサウンドに仕上がっています。
ある種「音符に直せない」というか。
オリジナリティ満載でした。
なので、そのニュアンスを再現するのは難しいので、
今回は「ノリ」と「フレーバー」を残しながらも、十代の松浦が歌うにふさわしい「サウンド感」を
新たに作り上げるとこにこだわりました。
そうすることによって、オリジナルの松浦亜弥の「渡良瀬橋」が出来上がりました。
松浦自体も歌手として、腕を上げてきております。
声が自然に、この曲に浸透していきました。
ちなみに、この橋は栃木県に実在します。

The way the sunset looked from Watarase Bridge— You loved it so much
“You were raised in such a beautiful placeI want to live here,” you said
Riding the rickety train, you came all the way to this town to see me
Even now, I live unable to forget that time
Even now, when I visit Yagumo Shrine I pray about you
If I could have one wish granted, I’d want to go back to that time
Do you remember the lone public telephone, standing by the corner of the barbershop?
Yesterday, I wanted to call you, despite myself I picked up the phone there so many times
The other day, I went down to Watarase River’s riverbed and watched the river flow for a long time
The north wind was quite chilly, I ended up catching a cold
It’s nobody’s fault—
I’d known that you weren’t able to live in this town
I worried over it countless times, but I
can’t live away from here
Once again, the sun sinks today
on the townscape you said you loved
The vast, open sky and distant mountain range—the town we walked through together
The town with the beautiful sunset
渡良瀬橋で見る夕日を あなたはとても 好きだったわ
きれいなとこで育ったね ここに住みたいと言った
電車にゆられこの街まで あなたは会いに来てくれたわ
私は今もあの頃を 忘れられず生きてます
今でも 八雲神社へお参りすると あなたのこと祈るわ
願い事一つ叶うなら あの頃に戻りたい
床屋の角にポツンとある 公衆電話おぼえてますか
きのう思わずかけたくて なんども受話器とったの
この間 渡良瀬川の河原に降りて ずっと流れ見てたわ
北風がとても冷たくて 風邪をひいちゃいました
誰のせいでもない あなたがこの街で
暮らせないことわかってたの
なんども悩んだわ だけど私ここを
離れて暮らすこと出来ない
あなたが好きだと言った この街並みが
今日も暮れてゆきます

Liner Notes[]
後藤真希にとっての待望の３ｒｄアルバムです。
１９歳という成人目前の女性のアルバムです。
１３歳でモーニング娘。に鳴り物入りで入ってきた後藤真希も、すでに、芸能生活６年です。
唄の表現のバリエーションも相当増えてまいりました。
そんな頃にオリジナルアルバムを発表できる彼女は幸せものです。
（俺にとってもそうなのですが・・・）
さて、すでに発表しておりますが、今回のこの後藤のアルバムの コンセプトは、
「ここから始まる新しい世界をロックスピリッツで表現する！」です。
心新たに大人へと旅立つ、女性の儚い愛を一枚のアルバムに詰め込ませて 頂きました。
タイトルも 「３ｒｄ ステーション」と言うことで、旅立つための「駅」でもあり、
心情を一手に集中させる 「局」でもあり！という意味を込めて、タイトルにしました。
テーマは「新・新天地を目指して」です。
今ある新天地よりも、更なる新天地を目指し、生きて行こう！という、
冒険心溢れるアルバムとさせていただきました。
3.横浜蜃気楼 （'04.07月 11th Single）
「平成版デジハードロック」をテーマに今回のプロデュース方針を立てました。
そこで、はたけに曲をオーダーいたしました。
そして、アレンジはアースシェイカーの「マーシー」こと西田昌史さんにお願いしました。
歌詞に出てくる女の子は、口調こそ強いが、本人の根っこの部分は純粋。
「どうしようも無いほどだらしないその男に、女は、しだいに溺れて行く。
たった一度、やさしくされただけなのに、女は「愛」と信じ、この物語ははじまる。」
な～んてコピーの「映画」の主題歌だったら、場所はどこで、どんな男で、で、どんな女の子かを考えながら
「横浜」と「うち」という言葉が出てきました。
サウンドの重さと主人公の熱い思いが、ベストマッチしました。
後藤の声にぴったりです。
後藤の表現力は「まだまだ進化してるんだな～」と実感できた曲となりました。
ミュージックビデオの方もおたのしみに。

Notes[]
- Watarasebashi is a bridge that spans the Watarase River (Watarasegawa), which runs through the center of Ashikaga City, Tochigi Prefecture. After Moritaka released a song with the same name using this bridge as a model, its existence became known nationwide, making it a tourist attraction.

The way the sunset looked from Watarase Bridge— You loved it so much
“You were raised in such a beautiful place. I want to live here,” you said
Riding the rickety train, you came all the way to this town to see me
Even now, I live unable to forget that time
Even now, when I visit Yakumo Shrine I pray about you
If I could have one wish granted, I’d want to go back to that time
Do you remember the lone public telephone, standing by the corner of the barbershop?
Yesterday I wanted to call you, despite myself I picked up the phone there so many times
The other day, I went down to Watarase River’s riverbed and watched the river flow for a long time
The north wind was quite chilly, I ended up catching a cold
It’s nobody’s fault—I’d known that you
weren’t able to live in this town
I worried over it countless times, but I
can’t live away from here
Once again, the sun sinks today
on the townscape you said you loved
The vast, open sky and distant mountain range—the town we walked through together
The town with the beautiful sunset
きれいなとこで育ったね ここに住みたいと言った
電車にゆられこの街まで あなたは会いに来てくれたわ
私は今もあの頃を 忘れられず生きてます
今でも 八雲神社へお参りすると あなたのこと祈るわ
願い事一つ叶うなら あの頃に戻りたい
床屋の角にポツンとある 公衆電話おぼえてますか
きのう思わずかけたくて なんども受話器とったの
この間 渡良瀬川の河原に降りて ずっと流れ見てたわ
北風がとても冷たくて 風邪をひいちゃいました
誰のせいでもない あなたがこの街で
暮らせないことわかってたの
なんども悩んだわ だけど私ここを
離れて暮らすこと出来ない
あなたが好きだと言った この街並みが
今日も暮れてゆきます
広い空と遠くの山々 二人で歩いた街
夕日がきれいな街
