A Person Becoming a StarSUPER BEAVER

This song possesses a profound allure that invites us to reexamine the present from the perspective of life’s end.

Centered on the universal themes of life and death, it asks what truly matters to us as human beings.

Inspired by the passing of the artist’s grandmother, it was released in July 2012 as a medium-tempo ballad on the album “How the Future Begins.” Rather than dwelling solely in sorrow, it reflects on the dignity of a life well lived through the image of a beloved grandmother being tenderly sent off, expressed with a simple yet powerful melody.

It is a song that stays close when you want to confront life’s fundamental questions or when you’re thinking of someone dear.

As SUPER BEAVER’s first nationwide release after establishing their independent label “I×L×P× RECORDS,” it was an ambitious work that also drew attention as a new starting point for the band.
