With a tightening in the chest under rainy skies, the frustration of holding feelings you can’t put into words.

That push-and-pull of love that everyone experiences overlaps with the image of autumn rain and hits close to the heart.

Released by AAA in September 2013 as their 38th single, this track won the Excellence Award at the 55th Japan Record Awards and was also performed on NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen.

With male and female parts sung from their respective perspectives, it’s perfect for a karaoke duet.
