I haven't been contributing to these posts. Better late than never I suppose. I'll go back and add to the last posts at some point, too.
Also, there's a small mistake in the tags. Although I love Returner, and they both have excellent Japanese instrument parts, we're on Setsugekka, right?. ;)From the list I made when choosing my top ten

One of my favourite G songs. When I heard it the first time I knew it was going to go way up on the list. Love the combo of Western and Japanese elements, and You's violin is just unfairly beautiful in this. And G's voice... Do I even have to comment? Also the PV is cool. I think it really suited the song.
I have two favourite memories of this song. One was when I was driving in my car, alone at night as I sometimes do. I was listening to this song, and for the first time I really "heard" the voice of the speaker. Not G but the longing lover. It's rare that I understand enough of the words to get to that level so it was a really moving experience. Just got really into it, I guess. It was one of those times that listening to G's music makes me feel like I've been crashed on by a huge wave and can barely move after.
Other memory was last year at Moon Saga, when this song played at the end. I was so excited to hear it, it was all I could do not to stand up, put my hand on my heart, and start singing it right at G's face. Had to settle

I love this song❤ It's a blend of rock and traditional japanese sounds which I can't resist! :) I like what I like and usually can't explain why but the visual aspects of the MV helps understand some of the lyrics if you read the translation (for non-japanese speakers like me).

I remember playing this song in the car, and hubby saying it made him think "Japan".

Whenever G goes from low to high in this song, I just get the shivers. And I alternate between feeling like I'm wrapped in something warm, then ripping it off and screaming into the night, if that makes any sense whatsoever XD.

I seriously want to hear this performed live one day. I of course remember the one show it was performed on, but I mean concert wise.
