Lyrics:
A sudden kiss in the morning
A tender gaze in the evening
Beyond my range of comprehension
Until you brought to attention
Greetings always followed by
Sweet goodbyes, yes
All must meet its end
Baby, can't you just relax?
Don't look back
Don't hurry!

Still reminiscing the day when
You left me all on my own, then
I walked away from any daylight
Instead of dawn it was twilight
Underneath the disco ball
Breaks the spell that
Holds you in my mind
Though I used to dance with you
Now we're through
I'm sorry!

Don't you dare
Even try to convince me
Don't you lie
'Bout the way that we could be
"Love's a game"
They all say it, they mean it
Might as well have fun
Play every single one
I filled the holes
And the cracks in my heart with
Fancy high heels
And plenty of dresses
They're my sole companions on this journey

Many men
That are fishing and begging
Speak of love
But they're still second-guessing
Hollow vows, even promises broken
Every face and voice
Brings memories of you
Glassy eyes
Shedding tears of my sorrow
Hoping they will forget by tomorrow
Praying no one's asking for the reason

Still reminiscing the day when
You left me all on my own, then
I walked away from any daylight
Instead of dawn it was twilight
Underneath the disco ball
Breaks the spell that
Holds you in my mind
Though I used to dance with you
Now we're through
I'm sorry!

Don't you dare
Even try to convince me
Don't you lie
'Bout the way that we could be
"Love's a game"
They all say it, they mean it
Might as well have fun
Play every single one
I filled the holes
And the cracks in my heart with
Fancy high heels
And plenty of dresses
They're my sole companions on this journey

A thousand dazzling lights surround me
Glimmering with mysticality
As if they're calling me to head back
But tired train rides endure that
Half-asleep I hear a sigh
Hear a voice speak whispers left ignored
Should I even bother though?
Yes or no
Don't worry!

I'm just playing games
I know that's plastic love
Dance to the plastic beat
Another morning comes
I'm just playing games
I know that's plastic love
Dance to the plastic love
Another morning comes
I'm just playing games
I know that's plastic love
Dance to the plastic beat
Another morning comes
I'm just playing games
I know that's plastic love
Dance to the plastic beat
Another morning comes

if mariya takeuchi sees this ily (what do u wanna see me sing next?)

[fukari]

why does that photo emit so much “i was forced into taking a photo for the school yearbook” type vibe

[halseyactual]

Ah, yes, the nostalgia of my non-existent 80s life.

[tombo-uatos]

I'm over 50 years old Japanese woman. This cover is so good. thank you.
I want this song to be played all over the world.

[jsato]

This cover is Awesome! I am over 50 years old Japanese man. I have been growing up the this original song sing by Maria-san since I was a kid. Will-san does NOT break original image of this song definitely! Please keep up to cover to pass next generation! I am so happy to hear this cover. :-)

[AlekFTW]

looking quite dapper there not gonna lie

[WholeWheatPete]

I've been listening to this nonstop for the past couple of days lmaooo

[Illegal_Immigrant]

Will stetson looks like he's trying to do a sales pitch on a failing business in the Florida keys and he really needs this for his career, and this is his final chance to close the deal so he forces his best fake smile, but in his eyes you can see the fear and sorrow building, cus if he fails not only is his job gone, but so is his wife and kids. sad story

[winko]

The picture gives me fancy-male-super-model vibes 🥰♥️ LOVE IT! The suit and tie looks really nice!

[ノンノン-ll]

とっても今風でした。
ヒットするかも!
曲が良いと時代も関係無いんですね😌💖
Very Good✨Thank you！

[愛野ひかり]

I am a Japanese man. This song is interesting even if it is sung by a popular man. Aside from morality, some men may be dating multiple women with this feeling.

[Parelf]

You know something: this song makes me think about my friend, who has a different girlfriend every month, but he always picks girls up at bars, hoping to find good girls there. I don't have the heart to tell him that girls who go to bars usually aren't there for love.

If he's going though this kind of pain, I can only feel for him. He criticizes me for being super picky, but I can't just fall in love with just anybody, you know? And Now; I'm unsure if that's a good or bad thing.

[experimental_tranquility]

glad you picked this version to sing! the lyrics written by caitlyn myers was an awesome translation.

usually when you change a song from japanese to english it sounds a little bit janky or stilted; this version has none of that. probably one of the best english versions i've ever heard. love your cover by the way

[Alfred_Atheling]

“I fill the holes and the cracks in my heart with fancy high heels and plenty of dresses”, gives off a different vibe when I guy’s singing it :D

[flyingfortless]

I am Japanese.I knew Plastic Love sung by Maria Takeuchi.several weeks ago.And I search for other Plastic Love and finally I am here. Your voice is so beatiful! I like very very much.
I am sorry for my poor English.

[saunshilu]

The new king for plastic love male English covers for sure

[loganmacgyver]

This song hits hard after a breakup and going through the "best way to get over someone is getting in someone else's bed" thing

[technoneko]

Your voice does this song so much justice

[nadakessal]

You know that you're a simple human being when you see "plastic love" and click without any hesitation.
You nailed it ! You're voice is just perfect on this song :)

[ItsRyan]

What can I say? The guy likes his high heels and dresses.
