An impressive number where everyone joins in the chorus right from the intro.

Dressed all in pure white, the members create a mysteriously weightless song that gives off a different vibe from before.

In the live show, they’ve put a lot of thought into the arrangement—sometimes starting with just the chorus, or having the band come in at different points—so it’s a track you’ll definitely want to hear live.

Hearing it in concert will undoubtedly make you a captive of this song.

The C-melody lyric, “There are things in this world where logic doesn’t hold, but let’s climb over this wall I built,” is incredibly cool.

The B-side track to the single “Broken Youth.” A hidden gem that starts with a gentle, snow-like intro.

It’s very popular among fans.

Personally, I feel this song is quintessentially NICO.

Beautiful melody, structure, and poignantly sad lyrics—every aspect makes it a wonderful piece.

If you don’t know it yet, you should definitely give it a listen.

All talk, no action—rest in peace.NICO Touches the Walls

This is a track from their first full-length album, “Who are you?”, released on September 24, 2008.

It kicks off with a slap bass, and the beat makes you want to bounce vertically—absolutely irresistible.

The way it shifts to an uptempo feel in the latter half really amps up the excitement, too.

NICO Touches the Walls has openly said they started writing songs after listening to Spitz’s “Robinson,” so a tribute expressing their gratitude is a perfect fit.

You can really feel, just from listening, that they poured everything into making this song their own as NICO Touches the Walls.

For example, both versions use tambourine, but it’s surprising how differently the two artists come across just from the way it’s used.

A work packed with the appeal of cover songs!

Hymn to FriendshipNICO Touches the Walls

NICO Touches the Walls, who were active for 15 years starting in 2004.

Their band name was chosen when Mitsumura staggered and touched a wall; the act of touching a wall gave him the image of a world beyond it—of creating a new world out of the everyday.

This song is an irresistibly upbeat number that conveys the importance of friendship in a straightforward way!
