dead of night sayonara wild hearts lyrics

It's fitting for Queen Latifah, even if her last studio album was released 10 years ago. Each narration has a lyricism to it, falling into bars that the subtitles help demarcate. Loading the game sends the player into an opening cinematic narrated, like the rest of the game, by Queen Latifah. And like all good music, Sayonara Wild Hearts is here to tell you a story.

Sayonara Wild Hearts is many things, but more than anything else it's a pop album experience, an interactive accompaniment to a stellar soundtrack in the style of CHVRCHES or Anamanaguchi.

The player controls one of two characters depending on the level, either an unnamed young woman with a short haircut and a longboard, or The Fool, a woman with a dashing suit and scarf to accompany her ball mask and tight bun. It's so seamless, in fact, that a common experience with the game is of dying because the player didn't realize they had regained control of the main character. The game transitions between cutscene and gameplay seamlessly. From any moment, you could be riding a skateboard down a Rainbow Road-esque track, running on the sides of buildings chasing down masked twins, or fighting a giant three-headed wolf mech. Sayonara Wild Hearts is a game about not always knowing what's going on, and that being okay. (spoilers for all of Sayonara Wild Hearts below) 'Sayonara Wild Heart'
