LEWNE Returns From Days Off With an Impromptu Karaoke Stream, Closing on Her Own Original Song

RK MUSIC — LEWNE, a virtual singer with RK Music, came back from several days off with a surprise karaoke stream that ran about 97 minutes. She said she had been unwell and was still a little congested, but did not want to go a whole week without streaming, so she went live without warning. The stream opened with a muted microphone that chat pointed out, and she began by greeting everyone, introducing herself and saying it had been a long time since her last stream.

She opened her set with “10-gatsu Mukuchi na Kimi o Wasureru,” which she said she had wanted to sing now that it was November. “Yosebaiinoni” followed, a number she dedicated in jest to a fellow talent after joking about being thrown around as a life-size cutout at that talent’s birthday live. From there the setlist moved through “Garnet,” a winter song she said she always wants to sing when the weather turns cold, a song she tied to her recent habit of listening to L’Arc-en-Ciel, and “Sekai no Tsuzuki.” Later came “Aliens,” which she warned was low for her range, and “Boku ga Shinou to Omotta no wa.” She stumbled over a few lyrics and said she was singing for the fun of it.

“I’m alive, so I’m streaming.” — LEWNE, on coming back after a few days off

Between songs she told chat about her coming birthday on Nov. 23. She said the birthday stream will not include a new song, and that she was saying so now to avoid raising hopes, adding that she had other things planned. She also reminded viewers of events later in the year. She said she was determined not to catch a cold before then.

She closed with “Goodbye Good Night,” her fourth original song, which she introduced as a track for the hours between night and morning and said was close to 10,000 views. Chat answered with a wall of applause, and one viewer wrote that the song made them want to sway along. She asked anyone still listening to try it before bed, then said she would get to work after the stream. The stream drew eight Super Chats.
