This time too, the analog version is limited! From SMR, which has continued to release notable releases such as THE BLUE HEARTS' hip-hop tribute album and Kan Sano's Last Electro, the LP edition of Yuri Tanaka's "CITY LIGHTS 2nd season", which was released on CD in January 2019, is now available. . Following the previous album "CITY LIGHTS" released in 2016, the label's DJ-oriented selection and arrangement sense are on full display, and the city pop-Japanese groove masterpiece is now gaining global popularity. will be performed again with Yuri Tanaka's relaxed and refreshing singing voice! It's powerful from the beginning, starting with Maria Takeuchi's ``Plastic Love'', which has an orthodox finish among the many covers that have been created in the past few years, and Yurie Kokubun's ``Snob na Yoru e'', which has also become a popular DJ song. However, he also approached popular songs such as ``Nuance Shimasho'' and ``Kuchibiru Nude,'' produced by Nobuyuki Shimizu, which were used in Shiseido commercials in the 1980s, and ``Tokyo Lullaby'' and ``Street Dancer,'' composed by Kyohei Tsutsumi. Although the song selection is wide-ranging, the sound production is consistent based on the current city pop etiquette that was redefined in the 10's, and the high quality of the work throughout the album is inherited, just like the previous work, which was well received. The jacket artwork for the LP is different from the CD.
