I’ve never heard a song so deranged in its despair over being dumped by a lover.

And yet, within the madness of these lyrics, I feel a sense of beauty.

I can’t help but hope that the protagonist of this song gets along with the next person they’re with and finds release from their loneliness.

It was the theme song for the live-action drama of Honey and Clover, which portrays the frustrating love and campus life of art college students.

Perfect for a work that captures unspoken feelings and helpless emotions through a uniquely student sensibility, this song is ideal for listening to a bit sentimentally while watching the sunset.

Ken Hirai is really good at simply conveying ordinary, everyday moments.

This song lists one after another the things he loves about his girlfriend, presumably the one he’s dating, and there’s no doubt the girl being sung to is a lucky one.

By the time you finish listening, it leaves you feeling happy.
