結果的にアンジュルム版が先行した“大器晩成”のスマッシュ・ヒットもあり、改めてソングライターとしての評価も上げている卓偉。通算15枚目となるこのニュー・アルバムは、ブリティッシュ・ロックへの変わらぬ敬愛を血肉したメロディアスな楽曲以上に、荒々しさを掲げて苛立ちや焦燥を全身で表現するかのようなナンバーがググッと迫る。℃-uteが取り上げた“次の角を曲がれ”もドラマティックな仕上がりで抜群。

[English Translation]
TAKUI NAKAJIMA - "Renga no Ie (meaning Brick House)"

Thanks to the smash hit of "Taikibansei (English title A Late Bloomer)", the first single release by ANGERME (, the pop girls group from Hello! Project formerly known as S/mileage), and the track that was used as the ending theme of a popular FujiTV weekend show, musician Takui Nakajima has been enjoying a renewed appreciation as a quality songwriter. This latest album marks the 15th of his album repertoire and looming large dramatically, more than the melodious songs embodying his undying love and respect for British rock, are tracks that seem to be full-body portraits of his frustration or anxiety worked up in great tempestoso. The track "Tsugino Kadowo Magare (English title Turn the Next Corner)" sung and released by ℃-ute (another Hello! Project girls group) is a delightful listen perfected with a dramatic touch to the song.
