Lili Maua collaborates with lyricists Atsushi Asada and Kei Owada to create ’24-5,’ a vibrant dance anthem. The song mixes Tokyo nightlife with the intoxicating pull of love. The tune is a shared effort, with YAMAZAKI Tsubasa, Masanori Yashiro, and Yu Sasaki joining in to produce the beat.
Lili Maua sings about a night that blurs the lines between reality and desire. ‘Every time we touch, I’m dripping, dripping down,’ the performer confesses. The lyrics describe cassis in a glass and a dance floor that rocks from midnight to 5 AM, capturing the sweet chaos of a Tokyo night.
