Meaning of “1974”: The title is a nostalgic reference to the year Shinichi Osawa, the artist, grew up in a natural, rural area of Shiga Prefecture, Japan. He mentioned in an interview that the song is an “image of nostalgia” and reflects a desire to return to the simple time of his school days in 1974
