==Comment==
Ishii had this to say about the single:
"This is the song I wrote first when I decided to start writing again. I wrote it after having turned off the lights in my room and just watched the moonl ight. The melody within me, who’s born in this country Japan, just became a song… kinda! It’d make me really happy if it would reach your hearts as well!"この曲は私が久々に曲作りに取り組んだ時に一番最初にできた曲です。部屋の明かりを消して月の光がさしこむ夜に作りました。日本という国に生まれて私の中に流れていたメロディー がそのまま唄になったかんじです！！みなさんの心にも響いてくれたら嬉しいです！ 石井里佳
