First heard the song when it was featured as the ed for a horror movie which I watched in 360p and can’t remember the name of but I remember I almost pissed my pants, then the prelude started playing, when the drums came in, I was like, “damn, this shit fire”. I remember that day I played the song on loop over and over and over again, I remember being home with my grandpa and we just listened to this song all afternoon.
This is Cocco's last live/concert after she announced she was going to retire from the music industry. Cocco is also well known for her emotional/intense performances. I think she's getting emotional during singing this song because she had to say goodbye to everyone.

@@heywoodfloyd9 according to this interview for ryukyu shimpo on her 20-year career (ryukyushimpo.jp/news/entry-516060.html) and 'heaven's hell' documentary At first Cocco wanted to be a dancer/ballerina but she didn't make it, so she became a singer instead, just to make dance companies thought how foolish they were to let herself go. At that time she didn't like singing, she just fooled herself to sing it. But then, as time went on, Cocco started to love singing when in the beginning it was just revenge tool for her. she thought that she didn't want to make a career out of the thing she loves, so she chose to retire from the music industry. (But don't worry, she made a comeback in 2006 and still making music until this day. )
