When this song was making waves on the charts in Japan, it was winter.

So I had always thought of it as a “winter” song, but when I watched the music video, Regina is singing while basking in the breeze of a fan.

Maybe part of this song’s charm is its breadth—it works just as well in summer as it does in winter.
