Song Review: Konomi Suzuki & Kashitaro Ito – “Kimiiro, Bokuiro”

On October 13, 2025, anisong singer Konomi Suzuki and Japanese singer-songwriter Kashitaro Ito released the music video for their collaboration, “Kimiiro, Bokuiro” (which translates to “Your Color, My Color”). The song is being used as the ending theme for the third season of the Isekai Quartet anime. I have to be upfront in this review and admit that my only familiarity with the anime comes from reading a synopsis for the series.

Thank you for streaming, sharing, and adding This Bright Circumstance to your playlists.

Spotify counts the streams from every single on the album, so while the total looks huge, nearly half of it comes from “Where Tigers Are Said to Roam.”

I'm glad Billboard finally figured out they needed to do something about this, but what took so long?

Thank goodness Billboard has come to their senses with new recurrent rules at the link below. The Hot 100 has become a joke over the past 7 years and these changes will greatly help new songs and new artists. www.billboard.com/lists/taylor....

Calum Scott released "Unsteady" from his recent album, Avenoir.

I really liked the laid-back feel that this slow-to-midtempo track has, as well as its lyrical message of finding someone you want to spend the rest of your life with.

Check it out and see what you think.
