A beautiful and fleeting memory of "farewell" - a page of youth written in harmony.Arai Yumi's masterpiece "Graduation Photo" is reconstructed by Hi-Fi Set with delicate and pure chorus. A monumental piece of 1970s Japanese pop music. "Graduation Photo" is a cover version of the famous song by Yumi Arai (later known as Yumi Matsutoya) by Hi-Fi Set in 1975. Their characteristic transparent three-part chorus and simple, soft arrangement blend perfectly together, further highlighting the sadness and nostalgia of the original song. Memories of parting with loved ones and youth surrendering to the flow of time evoke the "graduation" of each listener. A timeless song that beautifully crystallizes the sophisticated sound and lyrics of the early days of J-POP. |
