When I was involved in crowd of fans of NARUTO manga and anime (two years ago I think), I heard this song as one of ending soundtrack in the anime. I really loved Sasuke and that time the story came up with scenes of crash between Naruto and Sasuke. The illustration during the ending song was touching and deep, made me wanna hear the song more and more...
No Regret Life is actors behind this song. Please let me introduce them--they are one of my favorite Japanese band beside Monkey Majik. Their music are typically rock and simple, but the vocalist has a high and powerful voice, and it suprises me...his song is very good!I mean, his voice is too good in his genre.
No Regret Life was founded in 2001 in Kanoya, Kagoshima, Japan, by Kazusō Oda, Ryūta Hashiguchi, and Yuka Shimokariya, who was later replaced by Genta Matsumura. They played live shows before releasing their first album Tomorrow is the Another Day in November 2002. In May 2003, they toured with Ellegarden. In April 2004, they released a mini album My Life, My Song, My Mind.
Soon after, they signed with Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Records and released their first maxi-single on February 9, 2005 entitled "メロディー (Melody)". This was followed by their next two singles "失くした言葉 (Nakushita Kotoba)" on June 8, which was used as the 9th ending theme for the anime Naruto, and "あの日の未来 (Ano Hi no Mirai)" on November 2. Their second album,Sign, was released on February 1, 2006.
They released two more singles in 2006: "憧れの果て (Akogare no Hate)" on July 19, and "右手の在処 (Migite no Arika)" on November 8. Their next single, "Day by day", was released on February 14, 2007.
Their third album, Allegro, was released on March 14, 2007. After the release of Allegro, the band did not release any more albums or singles for nearly a year and a half. But finally, on August 13, 2008, they released a new single, "Can't Explain".
No Regret Life released their fourth album Wheels of Fortune on October 22, 2008. This album contains 10 songs. There are 2 promotional videos (PV) Can't Explain (from their previous single) and ハルカカナタ(Haruka Kanata). (Source: Wikipedia.com)
