Our cruise on the Harmony of the Seas back in 2017 was a pleasant one and it was especially nice to take a stroll on Deck 16 at night in the cool sea air as the ship was making its voyage. Couldn't quite make it a midnight one due to certain family members needing to retire early but hey, 9 pm is good.
"Midnight Cruise" is a track from neo-soul group WONK's September 2017 album "Castor", one of two albums that came out the same day with its twin album "Pollux". Written and composed by the band, it does have the soul as well as some nighttime jazz lounging about in its comfy slippers. The lyrics seem to talk about a couple groping their way through a dark and foreboding world although the melody hints at some light at the end of the tunnel.
Will always love Kento Nagatsuka's（長塚健斗）multilayered vocals here. There is something within them that reminds me of the wonderful harmonies of the band Off-Course's（オフコース）vocalist, Kazumasa Oda（小田和正）.
