It was a hit in Japan too, so many people have probably heard it.

It’s a song with a catchy melody that samples “Stand by Me,” which leaves a strong impression.

From the title and melody, you might imagine a happy romance, but the content is actually bittersweet, as it reflects on the past when the relationship stops going well.

Even so, it feels like a track you could enjoy singing along to with the rhythm.
