SCANDAL will be part of the cover album Watashi to Drecom－DREAMS COME TRUE 25th ANNIVERSARY BEST COVERS, which will consist of covers of songs from the band DREAMS COME TRUE. They will be covering the song "Osaka LOVER."

SCANDAL's comments regarding the song & their cover:

We in SCANDAL have covered 「Osaka LOVER」 for this cover album. It has always been a song that's close to us, since we're a band that started out from Osaka, and the scenery that emerges from the lyrics is very realistic for us. We recalled the times the band would meet up and practice in Osaka, and while we were recording we talked about how we would often sing this at karaoke. It was fun to make this song while talking about things like that. Because it's a song that we're fond of, we are very happy to be covering it! We're a bit more mature now, and listening to the song again had the different phrases emotionally touch us, and being able to cover it had us falling in love with "Osaka LOVER" even more. At the end of last year, we went to Osaka-Jo Hall to see DREAMS COME TRUE's live for the first time. We'll never forget hearing "Osaka LOVER" for the first time live. We're sure that all of DREAMS COME TRUE's songs hold memories for many people. We would be very happy if listeners like SCANDAL's version of "Osaka LOVER" as well.

I listened to the original version of the song they'll be covering...and it had the sound that would fit them well and I'm sure that the girls will have a great version of the song...

Very interesting; I'm curious how they will cover this song and SCANDALfy it. After all, I'm not surprised out of all songs they would pick or were given Osaka Lover. The girls all do love it there and have a strong connection to it. Oh, and there's a little comment from SCANDAL on natalie.mu. Anyone care to translate it?

SCANDAL

私たちSCANDALは今回このカヴァーアルバムで「大阪LOVER」をカヴァーさせていただきました。大阪発のバンドなので、歌詞に出てくる景色がとてもリアルに想像出来て昔から身近に感じられる一曲です。大阪に集まりながらバンド練習をしていた頃を思い出しながら、レコーディング中も「カラオケでよく歌ったよね。」なんて話しつつ楽しく作っていけました。思い入れのある一曲なのでカヴァーさせて頂けてとても嬉しいです！少し大人になった今、改めて聴くと当時とは違うフレーズにグッときたり、カヴァーさせてもらえた事でもっと大阪LOVERが好きになりました。去年末、大阪城ホールでDREAMS COME TRUEさんのライブを初めて観ました。生で聴いた初めての大阪LOVERはずっと忘れないです。DREAMS COME TRUEさんの曲はどれも、大勢の人の思い出の曲だと思います。SCANDAL ver.の大阪LOVERもリスナーの皆さんに気に入って頂けたら嬉しいです。

If anyone's interested, here's the original song:

A new cover, GREAT! .love.

Original song doesn't sound awesome to be honest. But of course the cover, especially from SCANDAL, could be very nice! So looking forward to it!

Do we know if they will promote it in some TV shows maybe? any hope for that?

But 2 months to wait..... T_T

It would be interesting to see SCANDAL covering that song.
The original song is quite nice but I hope SCANDAL's version would be a bit more rock-ish.
I can imagine HARUNA sings the song already .love.

Hmmm... the concept of the song is quite nice, imho.

It's about a couple who lives in a long-distance relationship. The woman lives in Tokyo, while his lover lives in Osaka. The distance keeps them from seeing each other often. The women can't bear the distance anymore, she want to move to Osaka, even though that means she have to leave her family. (but the guy don't ask her to move in)

The song is in Osakan dialect, though that dialect is actually "broken" because the women is not a native Osakan. (nice touch)

Slight correction; the title of the song is actually "Osaka LOVER"

"LOVER" is not plural and is the word that should be in all caps. Happy

------------------------------

First press bonus for the CD on CDJ is a slipcase. Not sure what will be on the case yet.

Also, here's their "Osaka LOVER" cover:

Well as I said I don't really like the original song but the SCANDAL cover sounds really nice. Not gonna make me buy that album but it's a cool song Nice one

I wonder if they will include it sometimes in a live. Or maybe sing it with another artist for a TV show.

Sounds pretty good! Love both versions :D

It has a lot of SCANDAL style in it with the instrumentals.
