Overview
"Senkō" is the second single to be released by solo artist Tomiko Van after the split up of the Japanese band Do As Infinity. The A-side song was used as the commercial song for the ringtone service site mu-mo, and for music.jp TV-CF. Online store, CD Japan, describes the title song as "a medium tempo track that's just perfect for autumn",[1] and her official website simply describes it as a medium rock number.
A drastic change from her previous single, "Senkō" takes on a much darker tone than the up-tempo "Flower". Lyrically, the song is about the sorrows and inward struggles of a woman who is by herself. Instrumentally, the song uses heavy guitars to help in the overall dark tone the song takes.
