Training wheels on the right and leftBaba Toshihide
Many people, I think, practiced taking the training wheels off their bicycles when they were little.
You keep looking back and saying, “Don’t let go, okay?” and before you know it, you’re riding on your own.
We grow up supported by the help and love of those around us, and someday we begin to move forward on our own strength.
It’s a lot like a bicycle and its training wheels.
We can’t stay by someone’s side forever, but we can always be their support at heart.
This is a classic song that sings about that bond between parent and child.
I’m a dad.pikuson
Struggling with diaper changes, dozing off while trying to put the baby to sleep.
She didn’t like it when I kissed her cheek, but hearing “I’m going to marry Daddy” made me so happy—that’s what being a dad is.
She grows up, finds someone she likes, and says, “There’s someone I want you to meet.” I can’t remember the last time I held her, but even when our hands let go, a dad is still a dad.
It’s a wonderful ballad that powerfully conveys the clumsy yet wholehearted love of a father for his daughter.
A sky full of starsHitoto Yo
This song reminds us anew of a simple truth: life is a miracle.
It was also used as the theme song for the film “Hana’s Miso Soup.” The lyrics feel as if they speak on behalf of Hana’s late mother, and they are deeply moving.
It’s a warm song that makes you feel that the bond between parent and child remains strong no matter the circumstances.

In the sense that it expresses affection for someone close, it also overlaps with the love between parent and child.
The sound that incorporates piano tones evokes a gentle intention to face your own feelings and deepen your affection.
The lyrics depict finding even casual, small gestures endearing, conveying a desire to share such ordinary everyday moments together.
