"Loneliness" is the first single off of Ginger Root's next EP, "Nisemono" out Sept 9th on Acrophase Records. The year is 1983, Ginger Root is asked to write and produce songs for up-and-coming Japanese idol, Kimiko Takeguchi. Right before Kimiko's America debut, she quits, leaving her manager to make the last minute decision of having Ginger Root perform in her place since he knows all the songs. By coincidence, a new star is born. "Nisemono" or 「偽物」means fake or fraud. The EP touches on imposter syndrome, and not feeling like yourself.

もしジンジャー•ルートが1983の昭和時代の新アイドル(竹口希美子)の曲を作ったら、どんな曲になるかなってことです。
希美子ちゃんはアメリカンテレビのデビューする前に突然辞めてしまいました。
その災厄の状況でマネージャーさんの決まりでジンジャー•ルートがアイドルの代わりになりました。
偶然に新しいスターを誕生しました!

That baseline works a nine to five and provides for its family while still being a meaningful figure in its children's life

The fact that this song is coming out so quickly when the other ones were just recently released is astounding, to say the least. I'm very glad that city pop is staying afloat in the modern era! Ginger Root never fails to impress with the retro vibes.

ロレッタがオススメに出てきてその流れで聴きにきたのだけど、映像から何から本人のプロデュースでやってるとかで何この才能溢れる人。 曲もストーリーも日本の80年代のシティポップや、意図せずスターダムに突然登り詰めてしまったりする状況を的確に表現してる。 当時の作品へのリスペクトを残しながら、現代の楽曲になってて英語での歌唱がマッチしてて天才。 素晴らしい。

80年代の芸能界を忠実に再現してるのスゴイな マネージャーとのやりとり、日本語で話しかけて英語で答えてるという不思議な意思疎通がなされてる 挙動不審になりながらもステージで歌う演技が素晴らしくてクスッとなりました MVめっちゃ面白くて何回も観ちゃった 曲もスゴイかっこいいな〜

Definitely really good. I really like the whole 80s talk show thing he has in the video, it’s really cute. Sad about Kimiko not singing, but i’m sure we’ll see her again real soon!! Great job!

As a long time Kimiko fan, I was ready to rip this guy to shreds when he came out on stage instead of her. But after hearing Cameron's immaculate vibes, I have gone from a Kimi fan to a Cam STAN ✨✨✨ Seriously tho I adore this song and the whole "Juban-verse". These songs and videos truly never fail to brighten my day!

I am Japanese, but I feel very nostalgic as if it were a Japanese song show from the 80s and 90s. Literally this music video is the best.

Lyrics: You said I know what the seasons bring You said it goes when those children sing Oh wait it's only half-past noon, stay tuned Till the time gets quicker How to stand the wait It's time to change your pace Loneliness Gone with your lying Sayin' it ain't it Oh, loneliness You know why Loneliness Find it out later Tryin' to be slick Oh, loneliness Say goodbye No one told me when would things get real Just walk on by and whisper, "What's your deal?" Oh wow, it's now half past two, so soon 'Cuz the time gets quicker How to stand the wait To stop and change your pace Loneliness Gone with your lying Sayin' it ain't it Oh, loneliness You know why Loneliness Found it out later Tryin' to be slick Oh, loneliness Say goodbye Loneliness Gone with your lying Sayin' it ain't it Oh, loneliness You know why Loneliness Found it out later Tryin' to be slick Oh, loneliness Say goodbye

Proud of you Kimiko, there's enough history of idol's being treated poorly.

I guess surely that Kimiko Takeguchi was inspired by Seiko Matsuda (松田 聖子). I think the airport scene was also inspired by the Japanese programme "The Best Ten (ザ • ベストテン)" in the episode that Seiko's song "Ao i Sangoshou (青い珊瑚礁)" was ranked in the programme for the first time in 1980.

この懐かしいさわやかな曲調涙が出る。日本でこういう歌をうたってる人いないなぁ。日本の若者もシティポップの良さに気づいてほしい。本当にありがとうございます。

The only person to perfectly nail the VHS 80’s TV look. For more people, you can tell that it still looks modern when they try for this aesthetic but this feels like you jumped in a time machine for this. Great tune Ginger Root
