Unmei loop (feat. Marcus Miller)

Unmei loop is the image song for Nobunaga no Yabou Taishi which plays in promotional media and the ending credits of the game. Kou Shibusawa loves jazz and notes that Marcus Miller is one of his favorite jazz bassists. A collaboration of any sort with Miller is like a dream come true for him. He remarks that MISIA's "powerful and soulful vocals" are a fitting reflection of the determination resonating in the historical setting. MISIA commented that the upbeat melody and the strong message within the lyrics were fun to sing.

 * 空の向こうにいる
 * 微笑んでる　あなた　思い浮かぶ
 * 足元を見つめれば
 * 土に　残した　夢の跡


 * 風に聴き、月と話す
 * 咲き誇る花　A season goes around
 * 大きな夢　抱き　散りゆく


 * だれのためとか　なんのためとか
 * ひとは競い合う　その意味をさがす
 * 予感直感が　運命を決め
 * そして全てが　まわり出す


 * 生きること. じぶん信じること
 * 生きること. 今　誰かのために
 * 生きること. 前　向く勇気
 * この運命ループに　今はこの身を
 * 任せて生きる Believe in my soul.

 * Listen to the wind, talk to the moon
 * Flower in bloom　A season goes around
 * I fall while embracing my great dream


 * For whomever, for what reason
 * People find their justifications to compete
 * Be it premonitions or intuition, destiny decides
 * And everything goes around


 * To live. To believe in oneself
 * To live. Right now, for someone
