The “3, 2, 1” countdown in the intro is super cool! Listen closely.

The lyrics take on a slightly ominous tone, and you can sense a ‘quiet madness.’ This song is somewhat famous as a scary, possessive track, and by the time you reach the end, you’ll understand: “It’s really scary! It’s extremely possessive!” Quiet madness—the scariest kind, isn’t it?

She wants to confess her feelings and, if possible, be the only one that friend looks at, but to the friend she’s just that—a friend—and the friend even has a boyfriend.
It’s filled with a heartbreaking, helpless longing.

It’s a track that makes you feel the fear of what it would be like if a so-called “stalker” were turned into a song.

It’s a song by Hana Sekitori, a singer-songwriter from Kanagawa Prefecture.
It was included as the B-side to the single “Kimi no Sumu Machi,” released in 2016.
