Kotringo – Harmonia

A heartwarming song that adds color to the film.

In the story, it’s used in a scene where Jun, Takumi, Ayame, and Tasaki deepen their bond through musical rehearsals.

Kotringo’s gentle voice and the soft sound of the guitar beautifully capture the atmosphere of the piece.

The lyrics—told from a 100-year-old self to their younger self—are especially striking.

They remind us of the beauty of cherishing the small joys of everyday life.

It’s a perfect song not only for those who want to immerse themselves in the film’s world, but also for anyone seeking a bit of healing in their daily routine.

This is an arrangement of George Gershwin’s “Swanee” with added lyrics.

Since it actually plays in the opening scene of the story, the tune has a kind of curtain-raising feel.

I do like this finished version, of course, but personally I also love the way Takumi softly hums and sings to himself while he’s working on the arrangement.

This is an arrangement of “Arabesque,” one of the pieces from Burgmüller’s well-known 25 Easy and Progressive Studies, Op.

100, with added lyrics.

Because it follows a scene where a girl hurts someone with her words, the lyrics are filled with harsh insults.

Sora Amamiya’s strong, cold, almost dismissive singing style is also striking.
