what does love mean, whatever love means, it does not mean you and me or me and you love flies, love dies, and this Plastic Smile is as disposable as the dying light of the day what's inside, I don't know, what's inside your Plastic Smile I tried to control my mind but it never seems to work while I was in your arms I tried to break your Plastic Smile oh oh oh (oh oh oh) still just a seed beneath a harvest moon oh oh oh (oh oh oh) should I keep you, should I stay or should I go I tried to find your mind, over this dirty love I could've given you more than your dream more than you thought oh oh oh but I saw your Plastic Smile so when you lie, I see inside I wanna wipe that smile away what's inside what's inside what's inside I don't know what's inside what's inside what's inside your Plastic Smile why do you still cry out crying out in a deep dream I was going to go, going to go alone, please set me free why am I still chasing you chasing in a deep dream I won't say anything about your Plastic Smile again If I was to say, this is what I would say, get out while you can, nice girls and Plastic Smiles this is not what love means, dress for love, not broken hearts what's inside what's inside what's inside I don't know what's inside what's inside what's inside your Plastic Smile

whatever I do whatever I say I just seem to screw up anyway, whatever I feel whatever I think It's just never ends how I want it to It's like my brain is un-done inside of the cocoon nothing gets better I had to hide away from everything I see I'm a butterfly still in it's cocoon shape shifting I'm so close to getting out so I can spread my wings and fly away oh butterfly still in it's cocoon replacing thoughts and I'm so close to getting out so I can spread my wings and fly
3.
growing red sky slowly disclose my mind I don't wanna be just a face anymore anymore anymore anymore so I'll say good bye before you before you before you before you I can't explain this feeling even now It's like I can see a clear message from the sky Could someone tell me why the dream didn't come true I just want to hold in my hand, this sequel to a dream 嫌われぬように、ついた嘘 も 会いたいと言えずに過ぎ た日々も これで良かったと 言えるように 過ぎ行く愛を ただ 積み重ねてみたいから 「English」 the lie that I told you is for not you hate me the passed life that I could not say "I wanna be with you” is for I say "It's ok, this is my life” so I just wanna stack every passing love

Survive 03:21
何かが少しでも変わりそう な気がしたんだ 見知らぬ景色が私を惑わすの so I'll try to carry this feeling to my future. 「English」 I felt something is changing and can get the start line in my new life. But I don't know why something missing, missing and messed me up messed me up. so I'll try to carry this feeling to my future. 足を止めて見た現実に少し ずつ輪郭をつけよう、そこ に例え厳しい現実を見たと しても 「English」 Stop walking, and draw our start line on this new scene. If I see the severe reality world there. don't forget what I have don't forget what I want to have and keep my eyes just a little bit harder but sometimes I'm worry about my future don't forget what I have don't forget what I want to have 足を止めて見た現実に少し ずつ輪郭をつけよう、そこ に例え厳しい現実を見たと しても 「English」 Stop walking, and draw our start line on this new scene. If I see the severe reality world there. don't forget what I have don't forget what I want to have don't forget what I have don't forget what I want to have

Singer/Songwriter/Producer Yuko Miyoshi came to New Zealand as a high school exchange student and it felt to her like the right kind of place for a young woman with aspirations.
She returned to Japan, got a degree, worked in Hospital administration and made music in her spare time.
In her late 20's she took a deep breath and decided it was time to follow her heart and set off once again for these far shores.

Johnstone and Brookes discovered Yuko busking on Queen St in Auckland and saw the potential.
Mid 2017 Yuko and her musical collaborator songwriter/guitarist Kohei Niibo joined Brookes and Johnstone in Brookes' North Shore studio and set to work. A few months later the 'Plastic Smile' EP was complete.
Back in Japan Yuko has worked on a number of musical projects including film scores. 'Plastic Smile' is her first solo commercial release.
Originally known as the comparatively unpronounceable Chagchagwagwhatz, Yuko felt a new name was in order. Miyoshi means 3 in Japanese and after a while it seemed natural.
When she is not writing and recording music Yuko 3 enjoys eating and drinking (beer and wine in particular) and thinking about cats.
Yuko 3 is a native of Atsugi City, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan.
