(Can I jot down a theory here?)

Hey! I've been guessing who the singers of the new songs are and the new Gakupo song seems to me the hardest.

Based from the songs that were already released, I arrived at this assumption:

"Each Seven Deadly Sin song comes with another song that features the most important person in the sinner's life."

Before I go into theories, I'll write down how I made an assumption based on currently released songs (in order of obviousness):

The first one is obvious: Daughter of Evil is paired with Servant of Evil as Allen is Riliane's most important person. This fact, however, is not obvious in the Daughter of Evil song nor the first novel of the SoE series but only became apparent later on in Riliane's life. Riliane once had the notion that she did not have anyone left in her family and instead, forced upon herself that she is an independent woman who can make rational decisions and think responsibly. After the revolution and her discovery of the death of her twin, she realized that she does not know all the facts (her twin was actually alive, her fiance had a lover, etc.) and therefore, she should stop judging situations by face value. Although the thought of putting a piece of parchment with a wish (rebirth) in a bottle and throwing it to sea makes it come true seems unbelievable, she believed for the rest of her life that it will come true. And she believed in this for a long time since Allen Avadonia is the most important person in her life.

Muzzle of Nemesis is paired Last Revolver and the man in Last Revolver is Nemesis's most important person. Although Muzzle shows how Nemesis wanted to get vengeance by killing his "dad" Gallerian Marlon, the song that explicitly shows why Nemesis wanted vengeance is Last Revolver. Last Revolver shows the lovely memories that Nemesis shared with a man that she was willing to do everything (even killing her dad) to give vengeance not only for Nemesis but also her lover.

Judgement of Corruption is paired with Miniature Garden Girl and the clockwork doll is the important "person" to Gallerian Marlon. Although Gallerian had loved his true family and discovered their sudden death, he cannot blame the octopus for their death (so he can't go all Nemesis Sudou on anyone). The doll, however, served its purpose to imitate a human's appearance. Although it sounds crazy, Gallerian treated the doll like his own daughter and thus the doll's song was able to illustrate Gallerian's genuine love for his family, the most important institution (more important than economy, politics, and justice) in his life.

Gift from the Princess who Brought Sleep is paired with Five the Pierrot since Pierrot is (in actuality) one half of the most important people in Margarita Eve's life. Although they are now living lives that stray away from their personalities centuries ago, Margarita may not live without Eve and Pierrot may not live without Hansel. Eve, as we all know, was filled with great joy upon the discovery of the twin babies in the forest. She was finally able to receive the blessing that she wanted, waited, and even commit thievery for. Although I have not read anywhere that the Pierrot and Margarita were able to meet, and also have not read about anything that showed that Margarita had true love for anyone (as to resist poisoning them), I think it's safe to assume that Hansel (Pierrot) is the most important person in Eve (Margarita)'s life from Eve's thievery to Eve's abandonment and death.

Now the last three ones are theories based on some known facts and the vocals provided by mothy:

Lunacy of Duke Venomania is paired with Glassred Portrait since Gumina Glassred (probably the singer) is the most important person in Venomania's life. Although Gumina didn't look like a very nice kid, it is evident that Venomania has a very big crush on Gumina. This is evident by, of course, the last line of the Venomania song which shows that behind the evils that Venomania comitted, he had one pure & simple goal that he was not able to accomplish in his bucketlist.

Evil Food Eater Conchita is paired with Drug of Gold since Carlos Marlon (again, probably the singer) is the most important person in Conchita's life. Although I think that the baby that Conchita protected fits the bill more, I think that the title and the vocals were too obvious to not be a Carlos Marlon song. Being the baby's father, I think that Conchita also has great feelings for Carlos Marlon (did she really ate him? Haven't read the novel yet). I think that Conchita did not let the baby die, not because of a sudden realization that mortality and morality is important and should not be harmed, but because it was the only evidence left of the love between Carlos Marlon and Banica Conchita. This shows that even though he actually ate Carlos Marlon, Banica had true and powerful feelings for him and their childhood together.

The Tailorshop of Enbizaka does not seem to relate with The Skull at Onegashima other than the similarity of the titles. They're both have a fictional place that has a fictional object's story. Both songs also seems to hint the notion of death. As for my theory who Gakupo is, I guess that he's Kayo Sudou's "lover"? Being the stalker she is, Kayo Sudou seems to just, so far, show that her most important person is that man (Gakupo?).
