"Commuter Train" is a city-pop inspired song that captures emotions left behind in everyday life.
Set on a morning commuter train, the song tells the story of someone you used to see every day who suddenly disappears as cherry blossoms begin to bloom in spring.

Emotional melodies by Shigeru Kimoto and a stylish urban backing track by Acore sounds bring this sense of absence to life.
With a memorable chorus and a bittersweet spring atmosphere, this mid-tempo track was created through a collaboration event on the audio streaming app Spoon.
