Hana Uta & the B-side reminds me of some of YUI's older works , especially SUMMER SONG , GLORIA , Laugh away

Both are very different from what FLOWER FLOWER is accustomed to put out

At least both songs don't sound like leftover rejected tracks from Target

Keyboardist mura☆jun is now no longer part of FLOWER FLOWER & he has left the group due to personal reasons

The band will now continue on as a trio

Oh no, this is really unfortunate news. :( At least it sounds like his departure didn't come because of some awful strife within the band, I hope it's not a sign of worse things to come. All the best to mura☆jun in his future endeavors! I wonder how this will affect FLOWER FLOWER's sound and future performances...

KarenPang 1st November 2020 03:40 PM

With the departure of mura☆jun , it will be interesting to see how different or no difference in future FLOWER FLOWER music releases

And numerous scenarios can play out , whether will FLOWER FLOWER add on a new permanent keyboardist to their roaster or get keyboardists in rotation in playing the keys in their songs

Bands like SPYAIR & HY have lost members over the years but they still continue on , I hope the same will apply to FLOWER FLOWER

FLOWER FLOWER keyboardist mura☆jun leaves the band

Quote:

It's been announced that FLOWER FLOWER keyboardist mura☆jun has left the band.

According to his message on the band's official website, there was a lack of mutual understanding between mura☆jun and the members since this summer. He explained, "When I thought about our original purpose, which is to get together and happily make music, I thought it would be best if I left."

yui (Vo, G) also commented, "I will support mura☆jun's further activities, and look forward to the day we can happily talk about music and make music again."

Ouch :s

Before this , mura☆jun already knew the other members for almost 8 years so this's a shame

He can always join back FLOWER FLOWER again in the near future ?

Kacku 1st November 2020 06:57 PM

Oh, that sounds a little worse than I initially thought, he's definitely making it sound like the atmosphere among the band is not good. :s I hope whatever is behind this situation hasn't caused irreparable rifts between the members, it would be extra sad when they've known each other as long as you're saying. I hope the door is still open for them to play together in the future.

KarenPang 1st November 2020 07:19 PM

Likewise

There will bound to have differences & tensions if you're in a group no matter what type of music genre you do

I hope the other FLOWER FLOWER members have not kept the door shut out for good & that mura☆jun would rejoin them again , someday

Maybe doing photoshoots, having an image and doing CMs isn't exactly what counts at "doing (art of any kind) happily" but that is something you realize step by step. I'ms selling my art as prints and stuff for about a year ow and I'm at a point where I think "am I doing art for fun and the commercial site is a bonus or am I starting to do art with the purpose selling it later already in my mind". i can see a similar situation here and the translation probably just makes it sound worse.

That's a great point, maybe he realised he'd rather be doing a more indie gig.

YUI Lover Archive on Youtube has uploaded FLOWER FLOWER's June live stream concert Inko no Kimagure! Three songs (Kamisama, Tume, and Tabi no Tochuu) have been cut out because they were released with the Hanauta single, but this is still over a half an hour of acoustic FLOWER FLOWER to enjoy. :)

For YUI's , she performed the last in the clip from the 32:42 minute mark onwards

Man it's so nostalgic to hear YUI perform her old songs in such a long time

So happy she chose to perform TOKYO . Wished she performed Goodbye Days instead of CHE.R.RY :s I don't mind LIFE let alone Rolling star
