I'm surprised this one hasn't come up before (or at least I couldn't find it in the search engine),
But then given the source I suppose it's not that unusual. This song is by Japanese '96 - '01 pop three-piece ICEMAN, and was used in the OVA
Gravitation: Lyrics Of Love. This is very a upbeat and infectious techno-rock piece.

Shining Collection - Iceman
[table]
Garasu no bedo ni toraware no motion
Tesaguri de shukujo wa kamikudaku
Soliday na tail de midara na hane collection
Himei hodo mujaki na yoruga hoshii
the motion of imprisonment in a bed of glass
that is first broken by the fumbling of a lady
a loose collection of feathers with a tail of soliday
that almost screams the innocence desired at night
Yuuutsu no borode odoru jiyuu to uso ni tsuda nukare
Moroku maichiru puzzle kono shihai kara tobitate
dancing through freedom and lies in the mood of depression
fragile puzzle pieces that break away from this course
Kiss shining hitomi ni kuchizukete
Toke dasu hanabira mo jama ni naru
Make me shining irozuku shigeki no hate ni
Kagayakihajimeta maboroshi
Kiss shining, we're kissing in my eyes
Melting away even the flower petals in our way
Make me shining, changing into the most exciting colors
That first shone in a vision
Shikai wo nukedashita panorama no dimension
Kanpeki na gitai wa tada furueru
Cheap na shokushu wa mitsu wo motomeru reaction
Tsumetakutemo hiwai na kimi ga mitai
the field of view excels the dimension of panorama
a perfect mimesis that can only tremble
a cheap touch whose reaction is to look for secrets
you want to see them even if they are coldly obscene
Nanairo ni moteasobu waki-da-shita kairaku no umi
Kage ga fuchidoru game kono sekai kara uchinuke
a sea of gushing pleasure that alters the colors of the rainbow
that strikes into this world adding shadows to the fringed game
Kiss shining kodoku wo katashidori
Karamaru koukai ga kuu wo kiru
Make me shining chirabaru kokoro no hahenra
Mabushiku sugisaru kibou ni
Kiss shining, imitating loneliness
Cutting into space with entwined regret
Make me shining, fragments of my scattered heart
A radiance that surpasses hope
Ta-iki wa somaru akaku nureta yubisaki ni habatakenu
chou no namida
Subete wa suna ni naru shining, make you cry
Red soaked fingertips dye the atmosphere with fluttering butterfly tears
And all is turned to sand... Shining, make you cry
Kiss shining hitomi ni kuchizukete
Toke dasu hanabira mo jama ni naru
Kill me shining irozuku shigeki no hate ni
Kagayakihajimeta maboroshi
Kiss shining, we're kissing in my eyes
Melting away even the flower petals in our way
Kill me shining, changing into the most exciting colors
That first shone in a vision
Please don't cryin' kodoku wo katashidori
Karamaru koukai ga kuu wo kiru
Make me shining chirabaru kokoro no hahenra
Mabushiku sugisaru kibou ni
Please don't cryin', imitating loneliness
Cutting into space with entwined regret
Make me shining, fragments of my scattered heart
A radiance that surpasses hope

I think given the lyrics 'make me shining, changing into the most exiting colors,' and 'a radiance the surpasses hope' this one will be a light
generation/manipulation power, But again, it's one of those open to a WIDE variety of interpretations.
