WINDING ROADAyaka × Kobukuro1rank/position

When facing difficulties or taking a new step forward, it will quietly give you a push and guide you toward joy.
Wings Named YouKobukuro2rank/position
When you think of songs used in car commercials, you picture a car dashing through majestic scenery, paired with music that fits perfectly, right? This song, Kobukuro’s “Kimi to Iu Na no Tsubasa” (“Wings Named You”), matches that image exactly—a refreshing track that pairs beautifully with nature and grand landscapes.
The lyrics evoke the seasons and touch on elements like the sky and wind, which totally explains its breezy feel.
At the same time, it’s also a gutsy song that gives you the strength to overcome hardships.
