I have this song for so long.. It reminded me of my childhood friend which I gradually forgot since years past.
However, after watching the funny talking fish prank on youtube with the insert song it touched my heart yet again. I recommend everyone to have their best friend listen to the song. 5 stars!
She is singing at the year end big TV show so people throughout the entire nation watched her sing on this stage. The song was used with the drama that was aired throughout Japan.
What I know is that the vocalist wasn't in perfect condition during this Kouhaku Utagassen. I think there was some condition about her vocal cords and she took a long break after this to recuperate.
Luckily she did recover and performed us many pleasant songs afterwards ^Ô^
i really love this song.. me and my best friend love kiroro so much.. we always sing best friend together.. we love japanese so much! their music is so romantic and really relates to everybody..
I am mexican as well... vivo en Japón desde hace más de 1 año y créeme que Kiroro me late muchisimo. Aprendí muchas palabras debido a escucharla cotidianamente. Saludos enormes!
Kiroro sings such beautiful songs (and meaningful too) I don't understand it, but the flow of the music tells me all! But I understand the "thank you, thank you, Best Friend." (Arigato, Arigato, best friend) Thats the best part!
I'm not a Japanese, but you can find plenty of her songs on youtube as well!
Mirai e, Nagai Aida, Aitai, Mou sukoshi, Saigo no Kisu...
If you're considering getting a CD, get their best CD (compilation of songs by fan votes), or get their debut CD, which is the favourite amongst many fans.
There are quite a few songs that are good, but didn't get as much popularity as they deserve, in my personal opinion =)
thank you for your recommendation,i agree with you,this kind of music seems not to be popular today,i also do not know the reason for that,especially for those singers who don't own pretty appearance,what a pity!
I love this song so much!! And I know the words to it, thanks tomy best friend Angelica. Shes so special I love her so much! Anyways, she made a video with this song, and I really just enjoy this song. I can easly think of her when I hear it. I would do anything for her, and I know alot of ppl would do anything for their best friend. Its just who we are. And this song really reaches out to us all. <3
although, i dont understand this song...but it is a very nice relaxing and comforting song..and i can feel the song...and i can imagine my bestfriend...ahhh...a very powerful song.....

This is NHK's Kouhaku Utagassen [Literally Red White singing contest, where red represents the female singers, white the male singers.], which was the biggest annual pop music event in Japan. They always put the lyrics for all live songs.
Hmm... It will be much more difficult to get their debut album now, to the best of what I know. You can try ebay and other online bidding sites. As for other albums, yesasia is a very big advantage for Hongkongers =)
hai.. sou desu!! try in yes asia..,, totemo takai desho,, their album "KIroro no ichiban iiuta atsumemashita" has a big red apple design in front.. it contains two cds (vocal and karaoke), blue book (their photos) and one white book (piano chord)...
hhmmm mirai e is also good..but for me nagai aida and bestfriend is very meaningful,.
dekinai yo,..am contented enough to collect their albums and listen to it. i already upload their songs in my esnips account so that i can share them to others,.. especially this song.. hajimemashite ne!! ja!
