Released in June 2008 as the 22nd single, it was selected as the theme song for the film Hana Yori Dango Final starring Jun Matsumoto, sold approximately 314,000 copies in its first week, and ranked second on Oricon’s 2008 annual singles chart.
Now a standard wedding song for couples to pledge their love, it is also one of Arashi’s more singable tracks.
Men may find the vocal range slightly high, but for women it’s a heartwarming song that can be sung steadily even through the full chorus.

Even after their breakup, the five-member idol group SMAP continues to draw attention for each member’s individual activities, keeping them constantly in the spotlight.
Their 35th single, “Sekai ni Hitotsu Dake no Hana,” used as the theme song for the TV drama “Boku no Ikiru Michi,” is a mega-hit that achieved triple million sales.
With its relaxed tempo and melody and a relatively narrow vocal range, it’s easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident singers.
