REASONS FOR THOUSAND LOVERS

『**REASONS FOR THOUSAND LOVERS**』（リーズンズ・フォー・サウザンド・ラヴァーズ）は、1989年9月6日にリリースされた日本のシンガーソングライターである角松敏生の通算8作目のオリジナル・アルバム。

## 解説
アルバム・タイトルは当初、『GOOD-BYE THOUSAND LOVERS…SEE YOU TONIGHT』（アルバム発売前に行われた、横浜アリーナ公演と同タイトル）だったが、「（ファンの人達を連想させる“Thousand Lovers”という表記は）ファンのみんなに対して、キツいタイトルかもしれない」との考えから、変更された。

先行シングルとしてリリースされた「OKINAWA」は本作収録に際し、オープニングSEがイントロに加えられたほか、歌詞が新たに最終行に一行追加されている。また、「飴色の街」と「Reason…」は後にベスト・アルバム『1988-1993』に収録されたほか、「飴色の街」はのアルバム『THE PAST & THEN』、「End of The Night」は発売のリメイク・アルバム『EARPLAY 〜REBIRTH 2〜』で、それぞれセルフカバーされた。
