“SEIMEI” was released in 2019 as Yuzu’s 15th single and drew attention as it was also used in a Nippon Life commercial.

As the title suggests—meaning “life”—the song celebrates the wonder of living, conveying the idea that the light of life passed down from our ancestors to us should now be handed off like a baton to the future.

From the lyrics, you sense that everyone is supported by something unseen and immense, and that the limits we can’t seem to cross are often ones we set ourselves.

It offers a perspective that makes you realize the preciousness of life—one that can be easy to overlook.
