Lemon is a Jpop song by Japanese songwriter Kenshi Yonezu 米津玄師 , released as a single through Sony Music Entertainment Japan on March 14, 2018, of which I did this cover. I used the visuals of Violet Evergarden anime for the song additionally, as the emotions which take place particular scenes are relatable to the emotions in the lyrics of Lemon. Especially the melody of lemon-米津玄師 hooks me whenever I listen to it. Songs like these are Simply beautiful ! The official video looks great too.

It is the theme song for the TV series Unnatural. It has sold more than 500,000 physical copies and 3,000,000 digital copies in Japan. Kenshi accepted several interviews about “Lemon”, talked about the background of “Lemon” and others. The temporary title was “Memento.” He said, “I think it came from somewhere in my memory, but I can’t really explain it well either.” Even when the day before recording, he was still writing the lyrics, the last two sentences “Like one half of a fruit sliced in two, even now, you are my light” suddenly appears in his brain and he said, “Ahh, so this song really was “Lemon.””
He also did the cover illustration himself. He focused on liveliness and freshness of a lemon, giving it an image quite unlike what’s typically associated with death. For the song, he wanted to go for a ballad, but a simple ballad is not very interesting for him, and he did not want it to be purely gloomy. As a result, he made a hybrid of sorts, with sad words over a dancing, skipping rhythm. He made this song while on his nationwide tour, during which his grandfather passed away. He agonized over it a lot, so it took even longer to finish than usual.
