It’s a song called “Celebration,” which was used as one of the theme songs for the 2019 blockbuster film Weathering with You.

The track was composed by Yojiro Noda of RADWIMPS.

When he wrote the song, he wanted someone other than himself to sing it, so he held auditions over the course of a year.

The person chosen was Toko Miura, who is active as an actress.

Her clear, translucent voice matches the song beautifully.

It’s a refreshingly uplifting track.
