This song became an instant sensation through au’s “Santaro Series” commercials and has since been cherished as a karaoke staple.

Its emotionally rich world, where the sounds of the sky, wind, and sea are overlapped with the voice of a loved one, deeply resonates with listeners.

The Okinawan-influenced melody crafted by BEGIN’s Yu Shimabukuro blends beautifully with the sanshin played by Kiritani himself, resulting in a piece that feels warmly nostalgic.

In 2016, it topped the annual karaoke rankings for both JOYSOUND and DAM, winning fans across generations.
