This song “Love Resurrection” is the 4th single from our upcoming album “Coming Back Alive” and probably our most favorite song on the album.
It’s a song written in “1980’s Californian hard rock style” (e.g.Van Halen).
It’s our favorite because this song has so much Van Halen-esq vibe from 1980’s. Fun, easygoing, relaxed, and having a good time.
And yes, we put our faith message in it.
It’s a song about eternal love. Because we believe in eternity. Because we believe in Resurrection. It’s song about finding faith. It’s a song about heaven on earth. Because that’s Rock’n’Roll is all about. Real love, real faith, and the truth behind everything beautiful.

To celebrate life and portrait the sunny vibe of this happy song, we had to go to the beach for the music video. (Shinryu could not join because of the schedule issue – his last job in the band was the videoshoot at the church in October 2024 and this beach filming took place in November.)
We visited beautiful Shonan beach and did the videoshoot.

2 things are featured in this music video.
“Wave of Grace ministry”
Wave of Grace is a surfing ministry actively working on Shonan beach. A team of Christian surfers is working there to minister people on the beach. They are helping local people and leading so many to Christ. Pastor Yabe, a pastor from Asao Christ Church, is the main person in this ministry.
Imari Tones have been a part of Asao Christ Church since the fire incident in 2023. Because of that, we have many friends from “Wave of Grace” ministry as well. We decided to feature them in this music video to spread the word about their great work for God’s kingdom.
To know more about Wave Of Grace, you can watch this short movie😉

Another thing featured in this music video is none other than “Marie”, our own bassist and beauty queen.
Following 1980’s hard rock and hair metal fashion, we featured Marie in Bikini. She is so beautiful, so cute, and she looks very happy💕
This is nothing unusual if we are a regular rock band (especially if playing hair metal😉). But we are a Christian band. Some people might be uneasy or some people may not like it. But we decided to feature her natural beauty for some artistic reasons. Our music is about Love. And our music always has been personal. She is the reason this band Imari Tones came to be. She is the LOVE of this band. That’s why this band Imari Tones was named after her. (Her real name is Imari, even she prefers being called Marie – Japanese anagram for her name)
If you look at how charming, how unique, how special Marie is, you will understand the reason why Imari Tones’ music was born. We started this because of Love. We believe in Love. Love led us to Jesus because God is Love. It was that simple. If you seek true love, you will find Jesus.
It will take forever to explain. This song and music video is very special for so many reasons.
For now, please just enjoy the song and the video. It’s fun, happy, full of hope, faith, love, and pretty💕

One more thing I have to add:
Prayer for Los Angeles.
It’s an unfortunate coincidence huge fire disaster is happening in Los Angeles at the time we release the song dedicated to Californian hard rock legends. We are wondering if there is anything we can do. Because we ourselves received so much support when we had a fire and lost home back in 2023. I think we got to do something. But at this point, all we can do is to pray.
From Shonan to California, we pray for the safety and recovery in Jesus’ name.
