この闇を照らす光のむこうに
Kono yami wo terasu hikari no mukou ni
Anly＋スキマスイッチ Anly + Sukima switch
Released in March 2017, this song was sung by Anly with Sukima switch.
Anly is a female singer-song writer from Okinawa. This song was also used as a theme song for a drama, "視覚探偵 日暮旅人 Shikaku tantei Higurashi Tabito".
Anly sings so well in her solo version but I like the collaboration version with Skima swith better. What do you think?
