Popular vocalist Sayaka Yamamoto released a small preview for her upcoming single “棘” (“Toge”) on Universal’s Music Japan YouTube channel. As previously announced this will be Yamamoto’s second single since graduating from NMB48 and it is to drop September 4. “Toge” will be released with two tracks total with the B-side “feel the night”, a collaboration with artist Kai Takahashi of LUCKY TAPES. This brings a different feel of the songs Yamamoto previously released. The single will also drop with a standard CD-only edition and a CD + DVD limited edition. The DVD will include the music video for “Toge” along with a making-of featuring several new segments of footage. Not to be outdone by the limited edition, the standard edition will also include an additional third track titled “unreachable”.
