1000 no Hane ni Inori wo Nosete

[Machine Translation] Inspired by Sadako Sasaki, the model for the A-bomb statue in Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, and Shozo Kawamoto, an A-bomb orphan who lived a life of great tragedy, we have written a new song, "Prayer on a Thousand Wings". I hope that the future of these children will be peaceful and that their prayers will reach the future of the world. This is a magnificent ballad with a prayer for peace. The song "Sora e Utau Uta Uta" (A Poem Sung to the Sky), which she has been singing since the beginning of her career, has been rearranged with strings and included in this album, as she is a second generation A-bomb survivor whose father was exposed to radiation in Hiroshima. The album includes three songs including a flute instrumental, plus an instrumental, all of which are filled with prayers for peace. The jacket illustration, which was completed with approximately 2,000 origami cranes collected from fans, is also a masterpiece. The album is a work of art that is filled with prayers to the very last detail. This is the first new album in two and a half years to mark the 20th anniversary of his music career.
