flower

Kumi Koda, known for her husky singing voice, is an artist so famous that it’s no exaggeration to say everyone knows her.

Even so, she has a song that’s often called a hidden gem: “flower,” released in 2005.

It’s passionately supported by fans, but because no music video was made and Koda herself doesn’t appear on the CD jacket, it came to be known as a hidden masterpiece.

The song’s content is a heartrending portrayal of unrequited love.
