Just You and INEW!Amuro Namie

Just You and I -Live Edit- / (2024 Updated Version)

Rather than speaking grandly about the world, this is a big, gentle love song that looks straight at the sure bond between two people.

Just having you, someone precious, by my side saves me from the heart.

It overflows with a mother’s love for her child, and it quietly warms the listener’s chest.

Chosen as the theme song for the NTV drama “Haha ni Naru” (Becoming a Mother), it was released as a single in May 2017.

You can feel the mature kindness Namie Amuro showed before her retirement, and the track is also included on the album “Finally.” It’s a moving song we hope those who want to express feelings that are usually too embarrassing to put into words—such as on a child’s birthday or a new beginning—and everyone currently working hard at parenting will listen to.

MISIA – Shape of Love feat. HIDE (GReeeeN) (Official Music Video)

This is the first collaboration song written and composed by GReeeeN.

It was selected as the theme song for the drama “Stepmother and Daughter’s Blues.” You can’t become an adult through your own strength alone.

We grow up by interacting with many people—parents, siblings, friends, teachers—and being nurtured with love.

There are times when you can’t straightforwardly say “I love you” to someone you care about, like a loved one or a close family member.

This song serves as a message that conveys love on your behalf at such moments.
