Promise of SunflowersHata Motohiro
Hata Motohiro’s “Himawari no Yakusoku” overflows with feelings of cherishing one’s friends.
Released in 2014, the song was chosen as the theme for the 3DCG animated film STAND BY ME Doraemon.
Since it’s the theme song for a Doraemon movie—hugely popular among elementary school children—the film, and the song as well, became a big hit.
The lyrics are filled with the warm love of friendship, as if they portray the relationship between Doraemon and Nobita exactly as it is, and they likely inspired gentle feelings in children too.
Think of your dear friends as you listen to it or sing along.
