Track listing
- Eien no Tsubasa — Eternal Wings, 永遠の翼
- The song and the imagery that inspired it made quite an impression on Tak himself, who would revisit it on two occasions. In 2010, he said he thought back to the band's visit to Chiran when he wrote something of a sequel to the song in "hotalu" for his joint album with Jazz legend Larry Carlton, Take Your Pick. Later, Tak would craft an instrumental version from the original composition for his 2012 solo album Strings of My Soul.
