"If" (stylised as "if") is a song by Japanese pop singer Kana Nishino. It was released as her 11th single on August 4, 2010.[1] The song was given the working name "I Swear" before its release.[2] In initial promotional material about the single, it was described as a mellow medium tempo ballad, written about "a meeting with fate."[1]
"If" is her first single in about 3 months since her last one "Aitakute Aitakute".
The title song "If" is the theme song for the movie Naruto Shippuden the Movie: The Lost Tower. This is the second time that Nishino has sung a theme song for an anime film since her song "MAKE UP" (Bootleg, 2009). "If" also was used in a television commercial campaign for Recochoku.[1]
The first pressing limited edition includes a special jacket for the first pressing, a special Naruto Shippuden the Movie: The Lost Tower jacket, and a flyer announcing the pre-opening of Nishino's official fan club, "Nishino Family".
