Why this song, today
Did you notice it, Jiji?
Life is everywhere. It's pulsing, it's vivid, and this song has all of it.
Yumi Arai recorded it in 1975, with Tatsuro Yamashita and Taeko Onuki among the backing singers, and in 1989 it became the opening song of Kiki's Delivery Service. Did you notice it, Jiji?
