Amazing. It is a structurally well-organized song [In Japanese he said “起承転結(kishotenketsu)” and the original meaning is “introduction, development, turn and conclusion”], and listening to it will make me/you/everyone happy. [In Japanese he doesn’t use any pronoun, so here he can be talking about himself or everyone else.]
