Karma is a popular concept in Hinduism or Buddhism, with two sides (good and bad, right or wrong, up and down) which rules religious/superstitious people acts and/or life all around the world. It takes the importance of a law which judges between cause and effect. As a composition, this song tries to function as a good act for the humanity, hoping to get good karma as feedback from it and/or the Universe instead. The lyrics (in Japanese in the original) tells the listener a history of the both sides of the concept, though.

Karma Is Back

The song Juliette was co-created with someone special and features a catchy, childlike melody. Originally born from a spontaneous Jam session, I later arranged it into a Jazz Waltz format for recording with a quartet. Its lyrics express gratitude for the person's vitality, happiness, and the joy they bring. Juliette is also the opening track of my new album, which I'm proud of, especially for its collaborative spirit, and the musicians involved in the recording.
