When you think of a national acoustic duo, Yuzu comes to mind, right? They’ve sung about hope many times and continue to give us courage.

Of course, they also have many pop, easy-to-understand songs that are great for kids and very easy to listen to.

It was also used as the theme song for the movie “Crayon Shin-chan: My Moving Story! Cactus Large Attack!” so it’s a popular song among elementary school students as well!
