Nogizaka46’s 30th single, released in August 2022.
By the way, the center position for this track is Haruka Kaki.
It starts with a quiet piano intro that briefly makes you think, “Is this a ballad?” but once the song kicks in, it turns into a lively, uptempo number—nice little trick there! The vocal melody and overall feel are classic, straight-down-the-middle idol pop, which means anyone can easily pick it for karaoke and aim for a high score.
Without overthinking it, just enjoy singing and letting your voice out—that might be the secret to scoring big!
