Overview

edit

Serenade is Tackey & Tsubasa's fourth single, and currently their lowest selling and lowest ranking single. The a-side song "Serenade" was used as the Olympus "μDigital" commercial song. The other song "Starry Sky" is Tackey & Tsubasa's first Christmas themed song.

Sample of the translated lyrics:

Don't cry...serenade
In the sky that has begun to shine, is a red melody
Riding on a promise of love
Shine...serenade
Fireworks dance with music
With a kiss for you, it will never die
Only you..., those days...
With a surreal love, in reality
Serenade[1]
