The symbolism effectively encapsulates the universal journey of growth and transformation. The imagery of moving resonates with the audience, evoking personal memories and reflections on their own transitions in life.

20TH CENTURY COMMENT REGARDING THE RELEASE OF “TABIDACHI NO KANE”
Masayuki Sakamoto
“This time, we asked Takamizawa-san from THE ALFEE to write and compose the song, which was our heartfelt wish. Spring is a season of encounters and farewells, and I think this song is perfect for such times. “Tabidachi no Kane” is a nostalgic and heartwarming new song, so please give it a listen!”
Hiroshi Nagano
“For this song, we had the honor of having Takamizawa-san from THE ALFEE, a trio similar to us, write it for us. It has a perfect melody that evokes nostalgia while also feeling contemporary. It’s a medium ballad that suits the seasons of many encounters and farewells. I hope you’ll listen to this song during this season.”
Yoshihiko Inohara
“This is 20th Century’s new single. It was written and composed by Toshihiko Takamizawa from THE ALFEE. Farewells can be sad, but they also bring new encounters. I hope “Tabidachi no Kane,” a song to hum along to during the changing seasons, will be heard. Please give it a listen!”
