White Day In The Blue

A Melancholic Reflection on Love and Heartache

Naruyoshi Kikuchi's song "White Day In The Blue" delves into the complex emotions surrounding love, longing, and heartache. The title itself juxtaposes the traditional Japanese celebration of White Day, a month after Valentine's Day, with the color blue, often associated with sadness and melancholy. This sets the tone for a reflective and somewhat sorrowful narrative.

The lyrics begin by marking the passage of time since Valentine's Day, highlighting the lingering bitterness in the air, symbolized by the still-bitter chocolate. This bitterness could represent unresolved feelings or unreciprocated love. The imagery of someone on their knees, possibly in a moment of vulnerability or desperation, adds to the emotional weight. The narrator's hope for words from this person suggests a longing for closure or affirmation, but there's an ambiguity—were they genuinely seeking connection, or merely preparing to move on?

The song reminisces about the best Valentine's Day, filled with hope and anticipation, yet it contrasts sharply with the present state of a 'blue White Day.' The inability to sleep due to prayers for a good night indicates a restless mind, troubled by the past and uncertain about the future. The phrase 'my blue White Day will be with me forever' suggests that this day, marked by heartache, has left an indelible mark on the narrator's life. The closing line, 'Good morning, my little heartache,' personifies the pain, acknowledging its persistent presence and perhaps hinting at a reluctant acceptance of this emotional state.

Kikuchi's musical style, often characterized by its jazz influences and emotional depth, complements the lyrical content, creating a poignant and introspective piece that resonates with anyone who has experienced the complexities of love and loss.
