Songs with titles starting with “Na.” A hint for shiritori! (31–40)
tear-coloredNishino Kana
This is the 21st single, released on August 7, 2013, and the second installment celebrating the 5th anniversary of their debut—a mid-tempo ballad.
It’s a heartwarming breakup song that paints lingering feelings for an ex and beautifully bittersweet memories over a gentle melody composed by GIORGIO CANCEMI, known for tracks like “Aitakute Aitakute.” The melody itself is simple and easy to remember; just be mindful of the slightly rapid phrasing in the pre-chorus.
For the higher parts in the chorus, it’s fine to use falsetto to match the mood.
Since it’s a relatively long track at 5 minutes and 37 seconds, try singing it with dynamics to keep it engaging.

19th-generation member Momoka Ito takes the center position for the first time, delicately expressing the mingled feelings of the glitter of bygone youth and anxieties about the future.
The coupling tracks also include a song born from the TV special “Yasushi Akimoto vs AI Yasushi Akimoto,” giving the release plenty of buzz.
As you gaze at familiar, nostalgic scenery and immerse yourself in a world that seems to ask who you really are, old memories may come flooding back.
It’s a song you’ll want to bring along on a springtime drive—one that gives you the courage to move forward, even while holding onto a touch of heartache.
