Shōrō流し▼
A massive hit released in 1974 by "Grape," the folk duo to which Masashi Sada belonged. Set against the backdrop of Nagasaki Prefecture's traditional Obon event, "Shōrō流し," the song expresses deep sorrow and quiet prayers in remembrance of a deceased lover. With its ephemeral yet beautiful descriptive imagery and melancholic melody, it is a lyrical masterpiece that appeals to the nostalgia of the Japanese people.
