I can't sleep again today - Takako Okamura

This song really hits the core, so I remember being pretty shocked the first time I heard it.

I was trying not to think about things too much, but it made me realize that everyone wants to lean on someone and struggles with their own issues, and I related to that.

If you feel lonely, please give it a listen.

A ballad with a moist, beautiful melody that evokes the stillness of night.

Originally released as the B-side to the Aming-era smash single “Matsu wa,” the song was later reintroduced to the world as one of Okamura’s solo pieces.

Its lyrics reflect on the things we somehow left behind along the way to adulthood.

A soothing track that gently seems to lull you to sleep.
