“Time goes by,” the eighth single by Every Little Thing, was released in 1998.

This track became a million-seller and stands as the group’s best-selling single.

At the time, it served as the theme song for a TV drama and was also featured in a commercial for Toyota’s HILUX SURF SSR-V.

For those who remember when it was a hit, many would likely call it a song filled with memories—one that brings them back to that era whenever they hear it.

Back then there were a lot of music shows and CDs sold in huge numbers.

Watching the interactions between the MCs and the guests often revealed new sides of the members I was a fan of.

But Ikkun, the guitarist, was so funny no matter what show he appeared on that I ended up becoming a fan of him instead.

Samidare – Every Little Thing. (Catholic Church).

Every Little Thing’s “Samidare” soothes the heart with vocalist Kaori Mochida’s gentle, whisper-like singing.

Included on the 2004 album “commonplace,” the song was featured in JR Hokkaido’s commercials “Spring Strait Story” and “Summer Sapporo Story.” It is said to have been written like a letter to a devoted ELT fan who was battling illness.

It conveys the idea of transforming the warmth you gave into the strength to sing—and then returning that warmth to you.

For those starting a new chapter this spring, let this song inspire you to turn the support you’ve received into strength and do your best!
