[Song summary]
Song title: 1/17 https://nex-tone.link/A00161149
Description: An emotional number that captures the fluctuations of the suffering and envy of a 17-year-old.
A variety of indescribable emotions, danger, irresponsibility, and vague hopes and anxieties about the future at the age of 17, which all adults go through at least once. An emotional number written and sung by a real teenager.
Theme song for “VOICE Act 17-year-old Biotope” broadcast on BS Fuji.
[What is Sakakidai?]
A singing shadow master. He didn’t go to middle school or high school, learned music by himself, and posted cover videos on TikTok. One day, an original song he uploaded became a bit of a buzz, and his number of followers gradually increased. He dropped out of high school and moved to Tokyo with all his assets, 30,000 yen, to begin his music career in earnest. Using an edgy low voice and a loose soft voice, she sings in the shadow of people.
