asking for the moonKANA-BOON
This song, “Naimononedari,” included on KANA-BOON’s first mini-album released in 2013, “Boku ga CD wo Dashitara,” is a fan favorite and the very definition of catchy.
The lyrics, which start with a back-and-forth between a man and a woman—almost like a little lovers’ quarrel—are especially memorable.
It’s refreshing how straightforwardly it sings about jealousy toward things seen and thoughts that come to mind, but in the end it’s a song about a wavering heart—about the feelings of love.
