The duo's last physical CD single release was last July's Ryobu .
Prior to the physical release , the A-side was 1st released digitally on 19th July .
Kono Chikyu no Tsuduki wo was chosen to be used as the official theme song to promote Expo 2025 , that will be held in Osaka from April to Oct 2025 .
2 B-sides are included in Kono Chikyu no Tsuduki wo . The 1st B-side Days was 1st released digitally in March while the 2nd B-side is a live version of Ren Ai Kansoku that was recorded from KOBUKURO LIVE TOUR 2011 "Ano Taiyou ga, Kono Sekai wo Terashitsudukeru Yoni." .
Kobukuro's 34th single Kono Chikyuu no Tsuzuki wo is the official theme song for Expo 2025 . Featuring a simple melody that everyone can hum along to , the song drums up hope & anticipation for the opening of the world expo in 2025 .
Describing Days & Kono Chikyu no Tsuduki wo is like night and day as both songs are completely different from each other . While Days is more classic Kobukuro , Kono Chikyu no Tsuduki wo reminds me of their previous single Ryobu where both tracks' music styles are not something I expected from Kobukuro .
In some way , Kono Chikyu no Tsuduki wo follows in the same music vein as OsakaSOUL . Both songs are upbeat peppy numbers which also showcased how vocally talented Kobukuro is , even after being in the business for so many years .
