Jpop Recommend #7 Ainaruhoue by Jin Akanishi

アイナルホウエ Ai naru houe

赤西 仁 Jin Akanishi

Released in October 2013, this is also another “Ohenka”. 
The singer, Jin Akanishi was once a member of a popular Japanese idol group, Kat-tun.  This is his second solo single after leaving the group.  Through this song, he said he wanted to deliver the following message;  “You will be alright if you head toward the direction you hear love.  A day is a day even if you cry or smile.  Treasure yourself and keep on living your life as you wish with your head up.”

He himself had a lot of struggle when leaving the group and when he got married with a famous Japanese actress/singer Meisa Kuroki.

“Naru” in Japanese use different Kanji according to its meanings.
For instance, “鳴る (ring)”, “成る(fulfill)”, “為る(change into”…
愛の鳴る” means “love rings”, 手の鳴る means “clap hands” and “愛の成る” means “where love is fulfilled”.  The title is written in Katakana with a hidden double-meaning of "naru".
