Tori no Uta
is a Japanese trance song sung by Lia, written by Jun Maeda, composed by Shinji Orito, and arranged by Kazuya Takase. The song was recorded at Paramount Studio in Los Angeles by the visual novel studio Key through their record label Key Sounds Label for use as the opening theme of Key's 2000 visual novel ''Air''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''Air Original Soundtrack'' booklet transcribed online )〕 A short version of the song was first released on I've Sound's July 2000 compilation album ''Verge''. The full version of "Tori no Uta" first appeared on the limited edition remix album ''Ornithopter'' (September 2000) originally bundled with the first printing release of the ''Air'' game,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''Air'' Dreamcast review )〕 though "Tori no Uta" was not remixed on the album. The song was later widely distributed on the ''Air Original Soundtrack'' (2002), the soundtrack of the visual novel. The song was later featured as the opening theme to the ''Air'' anime series in 2005. The Japanese variety radio show ''Moteken'' used "Tori no Uta" as the ending theme to their October 15, 2007 broadcast.
Shinji Orito commented on the song in the ''Air Original Soundtrack'' booklet where he remarked, "Even though I have made up my mind that the song "Tori no Uta" best captures the themes of ''Air'', arriving at this was extremely difficult. Besides being under a lot of pressure, I'm still quite inexperienced in the field of music; this is the area I want to become stronger in most of all."〔〔Untranslated quote: 〕
==Musical structure==
"Tori no Uta" is the longest track featured in ''Air'', spanning 6:08 minutes. "Tori no Uta" is a trance song in common time which begins in the B minor key and waits until the eighth measure for Lia to begin singing. The song is kept in B minor for the first verse, shifts to B major for the second, and again shifts to D-flat major for the third which continues into the first measure of the fourth verse where it shifts back to B minor for the rest of the verse. After a short break, the key goes back to B major and continues the same pattern as before. At the end of this sequence in verse seven, the first verse is repeated as the sole chorus in B minor. An instrumental coda is used to close the song which lasts for about one-sixth of the entire piece's length. The song's instrumentation primarily uses a synthesizer as a base, but does include a short piano sequence lasting for the first eight measures, along with piano accompaniment throughout the song. The song moves at 120 beats per minute, and Lia's vocal range spans almost two octaves from F-sharp4 to D6.
