[Sukima Switch Comment]

First of all, I'm really happy that our songs were covered by such wonderful artists, and I'm filled with gratitude as it's a reward for the 20 years we've been working hard on music.
Through this project, I once again understood why these wonderful artists are so active, and it really made sense to me.
Even if it's not our own song, each person's individuality clearly comes out, and everyone is unique. It was really cool, and it made me realize that we have to continue to evolve.
I'd be happy if it gave you an opportunity to listen to and compare it to the original, or take this opportunity to listen to the songs of the wonderful artists who participated.
I hope this album reaches many people.

I think it was in 20 that during the 2022th anniversary activities (using that as an excuse), there was talk of a tribute album. I was looking forward to Sukima Fest, which will be held in July this year, and this tribute album, thinking that they would play a big role in the anniversary activities, but once the 7 wonderful groups were decided, I was extremely grateful. At the same time, to be honest, I was a little scared as to whether Sukima Switch really deserved to be covered by these wonderful people. . .
However, when the cover songs were completed one by one and sent to us, I realized that everyone who participated had a fresh interpretation of the songs and listened to a lot of our songs that were covered. I've had 11 happy and humbling moments where I feel like I'm doing something extravagant, and now that I've come this far, I just want to enjoy it! That's what I felt.
Thank you once again to all 11 wonderful artists.
I hope that everyone who listens to this song can feel the difference in the interpretation of the chords and arrangement from the original song, as well as the key points of each artist's song. I also hope that we can also get our hands on original songs by artists who put as much effort into their work as we do, which would make this tribute album even more meaningful!
