Jpop Recommend #117 No.1 by Kana Nishino

No. 1

西野カナ Kana Nishino



Released as one of the songs in her best album, "Secret Collection~Green", this song is perfect for girls on St. Valentain's Day.  This song is also used as a theme song in a drama, "掟上今日子の備忘録, Okitegami Kyoko no Boubiroku".  I just found out that I chose "Darling" by Kana Nishino for the last year's St. Valentain's Day, and "Go for it!" in 2014, too.  Her voice and songs are the perfect match for this occasion.  Happy Valentain's Day for everyone!
