Your ColorHanada Yuuichirou, Ono Atsuko

It has a very cheerful tone—fun to listen to and excitement-inducing.

It might even turn your attention to encounters with animals and nature beyond humans.
What a wonderful song.
Mirai KurukuruHanada Yuuichirou, Ono Atsuko
The April 2019 “Song of the Month,” Mirai Kurukuru.
