It sings about the journey so far—racing forward with everything you’ve got, failing along the way in order to grasp the hopes and dreams that lie ahead—and about how the journey will continue from here on out.

When you keep throwing yourself into the challenge to achieve your goals and make your dreams come true, no matter how tough it gets or how many times you fail, what you gain is immense, isn’t it? This song teaches us the importance of charging ahead with all your might.

When you “graduate” from something, something new is waiting for you, right? It’s a song that gives you a push on the back when you take that first step into a new environment!

Tsukikage

This song weaves a bittersweet love story beneath the moonlit sky.

Yuzu’s warm vocals resonate atop a melody that sinks into the heart.

Included as the B-side to the single “Mata Aeru Hi Made,” released in October 2002, this track poignantly evokes a lonely night scene: gazing up at the moon while remembering a former lover.

Its gentle sound—an exquisite blend of folk and pop—spreads like a soft embrace around the sorrow.

Many listeners will likely relate to the protagonist, who bears the pain of heartbreak yet believes in the day they’ll meet again.

It’s a tender, companionable song you’ll want to hear while looking up at the night sky.

Yuzu “Pedestrians First” Music Video

Yuzu, a folk duo from Kanagawa, has a song called “Hokousha Yuusen” (Pedestrians First) with exhilarating, soaring high notes.

The Pocky commercial that featured this song starred actress Satomi Ishihara, and the student coming-of-age storyline together with the song’s vibe conveys Pocky’s healthy image.

Also, there was a service at the time called “My Pocky,” where photos you took with your own camera could become the Pocky package—so those who remember it might feel a bit nostalgic!

As a tribute to the original, everyone—Yuzu, the staff, and the studio musicians—took part in the recording in formal attire.
