Kana Nishino 'Suki' MV (short ver.)

Kana Nishino, the queen of love songs.

She’s now an indispensable figure when it comes to talking about love songs.

In this track, the romance she sings about is the kind where you suddenly realize you’ve fallen for someone.

Haven’t you ever thought you didn’t feel anything special, only to notice—wait, maybe I like that person! You start paying a little extra attention to your hair when you’re going to see them, or time feels longer when you can’t meet… Ordinary days change with a fleeting shift in feelings.

This song captures the beginning of a pure, sweet-and-sour romance.
