"Prologue" FULL ver.

Uru is known for a singing voice that gently accompanies bittersweet stories.

The song we’re introducing today is a gem of a ballad that tugs at listeners’ heartstrings.

Written as the theme for the TBS drama “Chugakusei Nikki,” which began airing in October 2018, its lyrics resonate with many, mirroring the show’s sensitive worldview.

Beginning with quiet piano tones and building toward a chorus where emotions overflow, it represents the epitome of a “tearjerker ballad,” crafted by Uru, who wrote and composed it, and arranger Tomi Yo.

Upon its early digital release, it topped the charts on major platforms and was later included on the album “Orion Blue.” If you’ve experienced a sad love or are looking for a night to cry your heart out and cleanse your soul, this is a must-listen.

Because you are hereUru2rank/position

[Official] Uru “Because You Are Here” — Theme Song for TBS Sunday Theater ‘Ship of Theseus’

The theme song for TBS’s Sunday drama “Theseus no Fune” (Theseus’s Ship) was written specifically for the show and portrays the irreplaceable moment called “now,” which connects the past and the future.

It’s a song whose delicate falls and vibrato are especially appealing.

If you add a fall at the end of the chorus or as a lingering finish to a long tone, it creates a poignant mood.

Since Uru originally sings with a breathy style, it’s easier if you imitate that by letting your breath flow as you sing.

However, if you’re not used to it, be careful, as you may get lightheaded from lack of oxygen.

Try gently dropping the pitch at the end of phrases as if releasing the tension.
