Love Song of SadoHosokawa Takashi

Hosokawa’s own lyricism, brimming with poetic sensibility, blends beautifully with the folk-inspired phrasing inherited from his mentor, moving listeners to the core.

It’s a song that draws you into its bittersweet world—perfect for moments of travel-inspired reverie or nights when you’re thinking of someone far away.

This song will set the hearts of all who love their hometowns ablaze—not only those connected to Ehime.

A masterpiece infused with the majestic scenery of Sada Misaki and the indomitable spirit of the people who live there.
