Taiyo (Chisato Moritaka album)

Taiyo (たいよう, Taiyō, lit. Sun) is the 10th studio album by Japanese singer/songwriter Chisato Moritaka, released on July 15, 1996, by One Up Music. The album features the hit singles "Yasumi no Gogo", "So Blue", and "La La Sunshine", as well as two commercial jingles for Suntory liquor products. "Gin Gin Gin" served as the basis for Moritaka's 1995 Christmas single "Jin Jin Jingle Bell". Taiyo is also the second album in Moritaka's catalog to include a cover version of a Beatles song. A limited edition release included a lenticular cover featuring Moritaka changing her facial expressions and a 10-page photo book.[1][2]
