I have to guess this was one of the most wonderful feelings a song has ever made me feel. I can't describe it well, but I'll try. It's like floating at a river that you don't know what's under, but you don't feel scared, just peaceful, and all of a sudden, you wake up at your bed, warm and your mother is singing this to you while her hand goes trought your hair, and you're a child again.
This is absolutely perfect, just magical. Aoba's haunting voice, the atmosphere, the resonance of the room, even her clothes and ivory glow are perfect. Absolutely stunning.
At her concert in Toronto a few days ago, she played this! I don't know Japanese, but it sounded like a folktale, or like an ethereal bard had come to visit us and tell us stories of where she'd travelled. Her musicality has also matured significantly since this performance, it's really cool to hear the differences!

first time i heard it, i was zero knowledge in Japanese. You gave me the power to continue studying Japanese and move to Japan. I don't know, but i cry every time i hear your voice. Your voice is touching. I just love your voice. Hope that i attend one of your concerts one day.

Indeed, but bear in mind that Aoba-san did not write this song - both lyrics and music were written by Yamada Anmi - he even plays it on the 8-string guitar! You can find his original performance here on KZbin as well (which includes much more story-telling in-between various parts of the song). All Ichiko did was cut out the story bits, arranged it into a more coherent song and performed it splendidly and magically with her sweet voice and brilliant guitar playing skills. All credit for the song writing goes to Yamada-san though, of whom Ichiko is apparently a great fan - she actually performs a few more of his songs.
