This is a majestic ballad delivered by Masaharu Fukuyama, imbued with his feelings for Nagasaki, the place of his roots.

I AM YOUR SINGERSazan Ōrusutāzu
This is one of those songs where you go, “Oh, I know this!” as soon as the chorus comes in, right? Since the MV’s background is space, I wonder if the song was made with a space station theme.
In the first verse, there’s a distinctive synthesized processing that gives it a relaxed feel.
It puts you in a comfortable, calm mood.
