With over 2.9 million followers on social media, Kaneko Miyu is active in many fields as a talent and model, while also releasing songs as a solo artist, gaining popularity especially among young people.
She has collaborated with producers MATZ and Ninni, who have worked on her previous works, to create a complete remake of the timeless classic, the song “Komachchau na,” which will be released on August 21st.
The original song is the Showa era masterpiece “Komachchau na,” written and composed by People’s Honor Award-winning composer Endo Minoru and which became one of Linda Yamamoto’s signature works.
This song, with its catchy phrases and light-hearted tempo, remade by today’s hottest creators, can truly be described as a “modern version of Komatchau-na.”
Please also take note of the jacket, which pays homage to the creative design of the original song, Linda Yamamoto’s debut single “Komachchau Na,” at the time of its release.

・Comment from Miyu Kaneko
This time, I participated in singing “Komachau na”, a remake of Linda Yamamoto’s “Komachau na”.
I’m really happy to be able to share with you this modern version of this song, reborn with a catchy, pop arrangement by MATZ and Ninni!
Be sure to listen to the even cuter version of the wonderful original song, “Komachau na”!
・MATZ comment
I am very honored to have the opportunity to participate in the remake of Linda Yamamoto’s famous song, “Komachau Na.”
While retaining the cute atmosphere of the original song, we’ve incorporated many modern sounds to create a sound that will make you want to dance.
Please pay attention to Miyu’s beautiful singing voice and Ninni’s catchy lyrics, and be sure to listen to the song a lot!
・Ninni comment
I am extremely honored to have been involved in producing music for such a wonderful project.
I was excited, but at the same time, it wasn’t easy to arrange the original song in a new way, so I struggled a lot. But I wanted to create a pop melody and lyrics that express the worries of young people living in the Reiwa era!
In addition to paying tribute, we’ve included a phrase from “that” famous song by Linda Yamamoto, making this a charming song that we hope will reach the ears of many people.
