I know this is a very old comment, but I wanted to still clear that it is about WWII.
The lyrics may not automatically seem connected, but Miyazawa wrote this song after speaking with a lady who had survived the US invasion of Okinawa during the war. It's really a sad song if you break down the symbolism, but it's incredibly beautiful.
That was the coolest song EVER!!! Thank you so much for posting that. It gave me chills at the international show and I've been wanting to hear or watch it again ever since the show. You guys all did a phenomenal job and there was so much heart poured into a song with such a great message! Thanks again for posting it! Cole and Mel
i love this song and you guys did so well! are you a regular group, if not, you should become one! everyone was great but especially the two solo singers! umai yo!!!!!!!
omg, it's so beautiful. *-*

全体のバランスとしては素晴らしいものがあると思います。
パフォーマンスの全体的な音感、一人一人の音を大切にする余り
ひとりひとつの音の大切さ、言葉の意味を置き去りにしてしまった感がが拭えません。
