In short, I personally think Who is always her ending song coz it's her greatest =)

and probably her personal favourite anyway.


The idea behind the song is truly amazing ... At no stage does she say things like "thank you"..... it is completely implied by her description of the person she is dedicating the song to.

I actually always wondered who the song was referring to.... I always thought it was to her mum ... (but certainly, grandmother is equally likely)

I reckon the first chorus represents her time when she left for Tokyo. It's interesting because it's referring to the memory of her past.

"I remember

On the night we spent apart
The moon was far away and I was crying."


The other thing to note, is that the 2 (and 3rd) chorus, when translated to English is:

"I pray that this singing voice
will reach you...
I pray that this singing voice
will reach you..."

But that the two sentences do not mean exactly the same in Japanese (Perhaps a native Japanese speaker can clarify this) - I heard it's something to do with the formal/informal wording of the sentences.

- In any case, I think the original meaning of the song is now "lost", being replaced by the plural of "you" in her concerts...

ie: It's like when an actor wins an Oscar and thanks everyone who has helped him/her in the past... .This is why I think Who is always her last song.
