ハッピーエンド Happy end
back number
Released in November 2016, this is the band's 16th single. This is the classic "失恋ソング" broken-hearted love song. The song was used as a theme song for a movie, "ぼくは明日、昨日のきみとデートする, Boku wa ashita, kinou no kimi to date suru (My Tomorrow, Your Yesterday)".
The lyrics depicts well about the feeling for a girl who just broke up with her boyfriend against her will. The title is the opposite of the story the lyrics tell you. What do you think is the reason for this title? Happy ending for the boy? She gave up the happy ending of her dream in the end? It's up to you to interpret the meaning of this title.
