Overview

"Atashi no Machi, Ashita no Machi (あたしの街、明日の街)" is the 9th single release by Japanese punk singer, Hitomi Takahashi, and her first single since 2005's "Aozora no Namida" to not be produced by Takuya. The title song was used as the first opening theme song for the anime Toshokan Sensō, which began airing on April 10.[3] The song is said to be related to Takahashi's recent move from her hometown of Sendai to Tokyo, and the lyrics were written by Takahashi herself.[1] Also, the coupling track for the single, "mother's car",[4] was used as the ending theme song of the NHK TV show "Digital Stadium".[1] In all, the single contained a total of three tracks, and came with a limited edition sticker for first pressings of the CD.[5] This single also marks the first time all the song lyrics on the single were written solely by Takahashi.
