Yoshimi Nakajima & Young Fresh

Artist

Yoshimi Nakajima & Young Fresh is known as the unit name that sang 'Ningen tte Ii na', the ending theme of Japan's beloved long-running anime 'Manga Nippon Mukashibanashi'. Written by Akari Yamaguchi and composed by Asei Kobayashi, the song simply portrays the warmth of human life from the viewpoint of a child heading home, and has been passed down across generations not only as an anime ending but as a standard children's song. The gentle, approachable melody harmonizes with a children's chorus, making it a classic track that seems to envelop the lingering afterglow of the folk tales.
