Kiroro is a duo formed by high school classmates, beloved for their heartwarming songs that touch the soul.

“Three-Person Photo,” included on their first album, “Nagais Aida ~Kiroro no Mori~,” leaves a lasting impression with its light yet floating ensemble.

Its message—let’s each go our own way with this new departure, yet keep our bond unchanged—captures the feelings that only a graduation ceremony can evoke.

With clear, powerful vocals that stir the heart, it’s a graduation song especially recommended for women.
