Showcasing King & Prince’s impressive vocal prowess, it depicts feelings one longs to convey across lost love and distance.
Like light after the rain, it sings of the importance of facing forward and overcoming hardship.

With emotions intertwined with the sky, this piece resonates with those who have experienced parting from someone dear or have unspoken feelings they wish they could convey.
SorrowsKing Gnu
Among King Gnu’s works, the track “Sorrows” particularly emphasizes the bassline.
While King Gnu generally builds on a mixture style that incorporates various genres, this piece strongly showcases characteristics of alternative rock.

That said, it’s still a King Gnu song: the vocal lines are challenging in their simplicity, and there are many high-register phrases, so a certain amount of practice is necessary.
In particular, because the song features many long sustained notes, be sure to use diaphragmatic breathing so you can produce thick, sustained tones.

The song is also known as the theme for the drama “Inori no Karte: Kenshūi no Nazotoki Shinsatsu Kiroku,” starring Yuta Tamamori, and it beautifully aligns with the show’s worldview.
