This is a gem of “melancholic pop” whose poetic worldview, woven by ZARD’s Izumi Sakai, strikes straight to the heart.
Released in November 2004 as Shinichi Mori’s 109th single, the song features music by Aika Ohno, creating a sound that clearly sets it apart from traditional enka.
Nostalgia for a youth that has passed and a resolve to walk into the future without clear answers seep deeply into the soul through Mori’s richly expressive vocals.
It was performed at the 55th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen, etching itself into many people’s memories.
If you listen to it in those moments when you pause in the journey of life and look back on the past, you may find yourself wrapped in a feeling that is both achingly sad and warmly comforting.

This signature song by Kaori Kozai portrays a woman’s heart as she overcomes the pain of a broken heart and vows to start anew on a ship bound for the north.
The piece embodies both the profound sorrow that turns love into resentment and the iron resolve to cast off the past and never look back.
Blended with Kozai’s emotionally rich vocals, it strangely yet powerfully conveys the strength of a woman determined to rise from the brink of despair.
Released in March 2006 as her commemorative 20th-anniversary single, it became a long-running hit that remained on the Oricon charts for 52 weeks and was performed on that year’s NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen.
It was later included on the album “20th Anniversary Kaori Kozai Single Collection.” The song will deeply resonate with anyone resolved to make a fresh start in life.
