Released in August 1996, this is his 10th single and his 2nd best sold single.  This song was used as a theme song for a drama, “硝子のかけらたち Garasu no kakera tachi” starred by himself.

After being a lead vocal of a popular jpop group, Checkers, he succeeded as a solo singer as well.  

By the way, he has no relation to a rising star, Fujii Kaze. (smile)
