Novelbright’s wedding-themed song is a warm love ballad filled with love and gratitude.
It weaves together everyday-grown romantic feelings, heartfelt appreciation, and a deep bond with a partner.
Released digitally in October 2024, it was first performed at the tour finale held at Himeji Castle’s Sannomaru Square.
The backstory—that it was created for vocalist Yudai Takenaka’s friend’s wedding—adds even more charm to the track.
It’s a perfect choice for expressing thanks to someone special or for use as wedding BGM.

This is a song by singer-songwriter TEE, released in 2010.
