Released in May 1982, this song is her 1st single. Her legend starts from this song. She shared the popularity with Seiko Matsuda, another legendar idol of that era. Compared to Seiko, Akina has different charm, a slightly more shy and reserved character and her voice is more husky and low key. If Seiko is like the sun, Akina is like the moon.
This song depicts one summer when a love starts to grow. The lyrics is like a novel or a movie which you can imagine the scene.
