Awaji Dream

[Machine Translation] Hometown Sound" is performed by Tetsuya Katayama, an artist from Awaji Island, Hyogo Prefecture. During his student days away from Awaji Island, he thought of the nature, family, and friends that remained in his hometown. In the simple and straightforward melody, I put a message to the people who live on Awaji Island, to those who have left the island, and to myself, who was born and raised on Awaji Island, that I want them to keep their dreams alive. I also expressed my hope that Awaji Island will always be the same wonderful place it has always been. Once you hear this unforgettable melody, it is the definitive version of a Heisei local song sung by a 22-year-old. It is a song that I want not only the local Awaji residents, but also those who live away from Awaji and those who love Awaji to love.

兵庫県・淡路島出身アーティスト、片山徹也が奏でる「ふるさとサウンド」。淡路島から離れて過ごした学生時代、ふるさとに残る自然・家族・友人を想って作りました。素朴でストレートなメロディーの中に、淡路島で暮らす人たち、淡路島から旅立った人たち、そして淡路島で生まれ育った自分自身に、ずっと夢を持ち続けてほしいというメッセージを込めました。そして、淡路島がいつまでも変わらず素敵な場所であってほしいという願いを込めました。一度聴いたら忘れられないメロディーです。22歳が歌う、平成ご当地ソングの決定版。地元淡路の人々はもちろん、淡路を離れて暮らしている人々、淡路が大好きな人々に、愛してほしい1曲です。
