About this song
- "Shinano no Kuni" (信濃の国) is the prefectural song of Nagano Prefecture, Japan, created for educational purposes. Because of its popular appearance in public areas such as train stations and TV programs, more than half of adults who grew up in the prefecture can sing at least one of its stanzas. Sometimes the song is used (half jestingly) to test one's patriotism to the region. — wikipedia
