荒井由実
Artist
The maiden name credit of Yumi Matsutoya, one of Japan's most influential singer-songwriters. Her debut album's title track Hikoukigumo was selected as the theme song for Hayao Miyazaki's Studio Ghibli film The Wind Rises. Its literary lyrics, weaving longing for the sky with thoughts of a friend who passed away young, resonate deeply with the film's heroine, drawing the song to new generations long after its original release.
