The original soundtrack Vol. 2 of NHK’s 2024 morning drama “Wings of a Tiger” will be released on September 25th.
This drama is an original story based on the true story of a woman who was the first in Japanese history to enter the legal profession. It depicts the passionate work of legal professionals who have faced difficult times and carved out a path where none existed.
The album includes an instrumental version of the song “You are so amazing” (lyrics and composition: Yuta Mori), which was sung by Belle and Sebastian’s Stuart Murdoch and became a hot topic, and the bonus track includes piano and chamber orchestra versions of the theme song “Goodbye, Once Again” (composed by Kenshi Yonezu). Please look forward to the second soundtrack, which is packed with the charm of “Wings of the Tiger”.
In addition, on Tuesday, August 27th, Stuart Murdoch and Yuta Mori will perform together for the first time on NHK’s “Utacon”. They will perform “You are so amazing” on television for the first time on a special stage using the set from the drama.
