[Machine Translation] The first track, "When the Music Overflows," is a song that he started writing when he was a teenager, and it is one of the songs that he has been working on with "Kouji Hori," incorporating everything he has ever felt, such as the feeling of accomplishment from performing a song by a musician he admired when he was in his 30s and being influenced by a book he read when he was in his 40s. The second song, "A Girl Named Hope," is a fantasy story with gospel elements that only he could have created.

1曲目に収録されている、音楽が溢れると、は彼が10代の頃から作り始めた曲で、30代の頃に憧れのミュージシャンの曲でライブした達成感や、40代の頃に読んだ本から影響された事など、彼が今までに感じた全てを盛り込んで作り上げた"堀公二"と共に歩んできた渾身の1曲。2曲目に収録されている、希望という名の少女はファンタジーな物語にゴスペル要素をプラスした彼にしか生み出せない1曲となっている。
