たしかに (Tashika Ni) - Angela Aki

As the final single before the release of her sophomore album, TODAY, this single was described as the her summer pop song. Angela Aki, herself, said the song was to cheer people on!

I like this sense I got from these descriptions. But hearing the song is completely different than reading about it.

Some have stated they found the song repetitive, and it is, I don't think it's as annoying as say...many of the songs from Desitny's Child. (Bills, Bills, Bills or even Say my Name..anyone)

I found the song to be uplifting. I definitely feel like finishing and accomplishing my goals. I think the purpose of the song has been fulfilled and I enjoyed the single as a whole.

One drawback i have with the single, is the absence of another b-side. A thrid tack would have made the single stronger.
