Yoiyoi Kokon

Reol's 'Yoiyoi Kokon' is a vibrant and dynamic song that delves into themes of change, resilience, and the importance of living in the moment. The lyrics are a blend of traditional and modern elements, reflecting the artist's unique style that often merges electronic music with Japanese cultural references. The song opens with a welcoming tone, suggesting a peaceful state of mind and an acceptance of the inevitable changes that life brings. The phrase '時が来た正しい夢現実読もすがら' (The time has come to read the right dreams and reality) sets the stage for a journey through life's ups and downs without fear.

The chorus, with its repetitive 'それそれそれそれ' (Sore sore sore sore), acts as a rallying cry, encouraging listeners to dance, sing, and live without worry. This part of the song emphasizes the transient nature of life and the importance of seizing the moment. The lyrics '踊れ騒げや飲めや歌えや' (Dance, make noise, drink, sing) highlight a carefree attitude, urging people to enjoy life despite its inherent challenges and uncertainties. The song also touches on the idea of fleeting encounters and the significance of cherishing them, as seen in the line '僕ら巡り逢うことまさに一期一会' (Our meeting is truly a once-in-a-lifetime encounter).

Reol's lyrics also explore the contrast between the past and the present, and the futility of longing for what once was. The lines '今を嘆いて昔をめかしても' (Even if you lament the present and glorify the past) and '君の心の内流れる涙川' (The river of tears flowing inside your heart) suggest that dwelling on the past can prevent one from fully experiencing the present. Instead, the song encourages embracing the current moment and moving forward with confidence. The recurring theme of resilience is evident in the lines 'いかなる時も歩を前へ出せ' (At any time, take a step forward), reinforcing the message of perseverance and optimism.
