『恋だろ』 Koi daro

wacci 

Released in April 2022, this song was released through online streaming.  This song was used as a theme song for a drama, "やんごとなき一族, Yangotonaki ichizoku".

I like the lyrics and the collaborated version with Kohei Matsushita who starred in the drama as the heroine's loving husband.



Collaborated with Kohei Matsushita
