コスメティックなポップ・ワールドを展開してきた彼女が不惑を目前に届ける新作は、川口大輔渡辺シュンスケらお馴染みの作家陣に加え、コンセプト・プロデューサーにジェーン・スーを迎えたものに。〈三度目の運命の恋もただの人違い〉と歌い出す“セ・ラ・ヴィ~女は愛に忙しい~”などほろ苦い世界観を映し出していく本作からは、自撮りのジャケも含め、いつもにも増して〈土岐麻子〉感がある。


[English Translation]
Toki Asako  “Bittersweet” 

Being on the brink of turning 40, the artist who has been creating an original cosmetic pop world, has released her new album. Joined by her usual composers, Daisuke Kawaguchi and Shunsuke Watanabe, this album also welcomed Jane Su (song writer/columnist) as her concept producer. Singing [my third love of a lifetime was another mistake] on her bittersweet track “C'EST LA VIE ~Onna wa Ai ni Isogashii~ (meaning C'EST LA VIE ~Women are Always Busy with Love~)”, the bittersweet album oozes the ambience of “Toki Asako” more than ever, including the selfie used as the album cover.
