16-Year-Old High School Singer Tsuzuri Releases First Digital Single "Uraomote"

Today, on May 10, 16-year-old high school singer Tsuzuri released her first digital single titled “Uraomote.” Tsuzuri is primarily active online, sharing cover videos of Vocaloid and J-pop songs on platforms like YouTube and TikTok. With over 50,000 subscribers on YouTube, she has gained a significant following. Notably, she has also been chosen to perform the opening theme song for the upcoming TV anime series titled The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses, which will air in July 2023 in Japan.

“Uraomote” was composed and arranged by Giga, a sound creator known for hits such as “Odo” and “CH4NGE,” with lyrics by Tanaka (previously known as Boku no Lyric no Bōyomi). The single cover jacket was drawn by the illustrator Tabun-ningen.

To commemorate the release of her first digital single and the 50,000 subscribers milestone, three of the songs that Tsuzuri covered on YouTube — Cat Loving (Kashi Moimi), In The Bathroom (REISAI), and Darling (MARETU) — will be released simultaneously. These songs are now available on music streaming and download services such as iTunes Store, Recochoku, and mora.

In addition, an official music video of “Uraomote” will be released at 20:00 on May 10 (JST) on Tsuzuri's YouTube channel. The video, which features the character on the cover jacket, was created by Hissha and Okiku, the animator tag team behind Giga's “CH4NGE” video.
