Blending old school tunes with the modern-day vibe, Re:inc’s second single is putting a fresh spin on a timeless city pop hit — Mariya Takeuchi’s “Plastic Love.”
On October 8, Japanese girl group Re:inc released their cover of Mariya Takeuchi’s “Plastic Love.” This is officially their second single, following their September debut with “TCIY.”
First released in Mariya Takeuchi’s 1984 album Variety, “Plastic Love” has earned its place among the most beloved city pop tracks in music history. The song made a resurgence in the late 2010s through a combination of viral remixes and algorithm exposure. Almost four decades after its original release, there’s no denying that the spotlight was brighter the second time around.
I’m just playing games
I know that’s plastic love
Dance to the plastic beat
Another morning comes

Despite being fresh faces, the group’s decision to cover such a well-loved classic for their second single speaks volumes.
