Kurenai
Single JP 1988 on Rockin' F label
Rock (Heavy Metal, Speed Metal, Power Metal)
Rockin' F promo 7" flexi. The song "Kurenai" was first released on X's June 1985 live demo tapes, which were titled "Live" and "Endless Dream". The lyrics were entirely in Japanese, while the next version, released on their April 1988 debut album Vanishing Vision, was entirely in English and began with an intro played by hide on guitar. A flexi disc included within the June 1988 issue of Rockin' f magazine, contained "Kurenai (Original Japanese Version)". It begins with an intro played by Yoshiki on piano and contrary to the title, was mostly in English. The version on 1989's Blue Blood begins with an orchestrated piece, then the guitar intro, and is mostly in Japanese, with only the opening lyrics in English. Only a few months later, the single version was released, although very similar to the recording on Blue Blood, it does not have the orchestrated intro.
