Second Love (song)

"Second Love" (セカンド・ラブ, Sekando Rabu) is the third single by Japanese entertainer Akina Nakamori.

[1][2] "Second Love" was originally written for Junko Ohashi as a follow-up to her 1981 hit single "Silhouette Romance" (シルエット・ロマンス, Shiruetto Romansu), but was passed on to Nakamori.

However, the rest of the agency were not enthusiastic about releasing the song, and it was decided that "Second Love" would be the third single instead.

Akira Terabayashi, who was Nakamori's promotion manager at the time, wanted to show listeners her wide musical range with "Second Love".

In addition, the single earned Takao Kisugi the Grand Prix at the 3rd Japan Composition Awards.
