A gem of a love song by Kishidan that passionately conveys eternal love with manly spirit.
The lyrics, which pledge nothing but to make the other person happy and straightforwardly depict a future with the one you love, deeply resonate with couples in love.
The resolve to uphold unchanging love—even with gray hair or baldness—is expressed at times powerfully, at times humorously.
Released in February 2015 as their 18th single, this piece was reportedly written by Show Ayanokoji on a Shinkansen, based on his experience at a friend’s wedding.
It’s ideal for celebrating anniversaries, wedding performances, or as proposal background music—a song that gives voice, through music, to feelings that are hard to express honestly.

It was also the theme song for the 2018 film Tonight, at the Movies (starring Kentaro Sakaguchi and Haruka Ayase).
With lyrics that tie into the film’s love story, the song builds a poignant sense of longing.
It works perfectly as a love song, of course, but more than that, it sings of a deeper, more encompassing affection—love in the broader, human sense.
