Ayumi Hamasaki / snowy kiss (Short Ver.)

This song is about heartbreak.

When you hear “heartbreak song,” you might imagine a ballad, but this one is fairly up-tempo.

It conveys the sadness of a breakup briskly, with straightforward lyrics.

There are parts where snow is used to express the feeling of heartbreak, so pay attention to the words.

Winter is often called the season of parting, and watching the music video might make its poignancy and sorrow come through even more.
