T-BOLAN’s second single.

A single by the male-female duo Oyonaizu, released on August 21, 1989.

With lyrics in which a man and woman reaffirm their feelings for each other, this charmingly simple song features an enka-style melody and Tohoku dialect lyrics that leave a strong impression, evoking a sense of grand, expansive nature.

SAY YESCHAGE and ASKA

The 27th single by the male duo CHAGE and ASKA, released on July 24, 1991.

Though the lyrics express a man’s wish to stay together forever with a woman, the song as a whole conveys a love so immense that it surpasses what the words can capture—a beautiful, mid-tempo love ballad.

It was included on the double A-side single “Eien ni Tomo ni / Million Films,” released in 2004.

“Eien ni Tomo ni” was sung at the wedding of Tomonori Jinnai and Norika Fujiwara, but because they later divorced, the song has become something of a taboo for weddings.

Meanwhile, “Million Films” continues to be loved as a classic wedding song.

It’s a superb pop tune: a refreshing, upbeat number with a heart-tuggingly bittersweet melody.
