"Blue" is the special ending song for the final episode, 26, of "COWBOY BEBOP," a hardboiled anime that has become a monument of the genre.
"Blue", along with "TANK!", another of Yoko Kanno's signature songs, continues to live in the souls of fans as the universe's strongest and most magnificent ballad, often used in TV and other media as background music.
The highly anticipated newcomer, Maya, the vocalist for this piece, is a high school girl living in the United States who started on TikTok. This is her first release.
