blue lover 1971 _(昭和) Japanes,

Ethereal Middle Eastern fusion with female vocals, frame drum pulse, and droning strings, Verse sits on tense, low-register melody over sparse oud and distant chant pads, Chorus opens with relaxed wordless humming in layered harmonies, adding shimmering bells and airy reverb, Tension slowly rises with subtle rhythmic build and swelling choir, peaking on a transcendent final refrain that lingers into a soft cosmic fade, world, light, magical, theme
