the sixteenth-night moonw-inds.

This is “Izayoi no Tsuki,” the 16th single released in 2005 by the boys’ dance unit w-inds.

“Izayoi no tsuki” refers to the moon on the night after the full moon, when moonrise comes a bit later; it also signifies the day following the Mid-Autumn Moon.

Drawing on that imagery, the song portrays the bittersweet feeling of a love that seems destined to end with the close of summer—loving someone who may already have someone else.

It’s a poignant track best listened to as autumn gradually deepens.
