“Yuming Kanpai!!—Yumi Matsutoya 50th Anniversary Collaboration Best Album” is an album with the concept of a “new past” and a “nostalgic future.” The participating artists were selected by Yuming herself, with both of them exchanging ideas, including the direction of song selection and arrangement.
“Chuo Freeway” was originally released in 1976 and was included in Yuming’s, “14th Moon” album. For the new version, she was inspired by YOASOBI’s style of creating songs based on novels and decided to use the novel “Everything is a Message,” written by Mariko Yamauchi, as the basis.
The novel that was written in honor of her 50th anniversary depicts Yuming’s life from childhood up until the present day. Both song and novel are based on an era before YOASOBI members Ayase and Ikura were born, but the two contributed by adding new lyrics, melody, and bridge. It was also confirmed that the vocals Yuming recorded as Yumi Arai in the original vocal track of Chuo Freeway were included with Ikura’s as a duet.
Yumi Matsutoya, nicknamed Yuming, is a Japanese singer, composer, lyricist, and pianist. Generally the writer of both the lyrics and the music in her songs, she is renowned for her idiosyncratic voice and live performances, and she is one of the most prominent figures in the history of Japanese popular music.
