A Mr.Children masterpiece that gently wraps the pain of heartbreak: “Over.” As you revisit the moment of parting, your heart trembles with faint memories… In this way, the song perfectly synchronizes with the emotions of anyone nursing a broken heart.

Since their debut in 1993, they’ve stood by our hearts with countless hits, and “Over” is one of them.

Its lyrics portray a protagonist who looks back on a past love while feeling the sting of loss.

As hope and despair intersect, we realize that beyond the darkness overflowing with sorrow lies a new self.

It’s a masterpiece I wholeheartedly recommend not only to those who experienced heartbreak on Valentine’s Day, but to everyone carrying a past etched into their hearts.
