Amefuri Kuma no Ko
Nippon no Uta, あめふりくまのこ
A tune composed by Tomoyo Harada & Keiichi Suzuki titled "Raindrops in the Mountains." The melody depicts rainfall cascading from mountain peaks onto the earth below. As the droplets dance across the ground, they form a tiny stream of water. A mischievous bear passes by the stream and stops to gaze at the flowing water in silence. He wonders if there are any fish swimming within its depths.
This film was made as one of the "Nippon no uta" (Songs of Japan) projects.The project aims to breathe new life into Japanese nursery songs and school songs, and pass them on to future generations.
