This time, we’re featuring the theme song and insert songs from the Studio Ghibli film “Whisper of the Heart.” When you think of “Whisper of the Heart,” it has to be “Country Road,” right? That melody that makes you want to hum it without thinking.

For those who’ve seen the film, it’s an especially memorable song.

The bittersweet relationship between the protagonists, Shizuku and Seiji Amasawa.

Just writing this introduction makes me want to watch it again.

If you listen to the songs collected in this article, I’m sure you’ll feel the same.
