“Lum’s Love Song” was originally released as pop singer Yuko Matsutani’s debut single on October 21, 1981, and was used for the anime for two years from its first to 100th episodes. It was enthusiastically received by anime fans at the time and won the Anime Song Award in the fourth Anime Grand Prix in 1981, decided by reader votes in Tokuma Shoten’s Animage magazine. It is truly an iconic anime song for fans from the early 1980s.
Uesaka’s cover version was included in the bonus CD of the reboot anime’s first DVD/Blu-ray box released in Japan on March 15, 2023. The second DVD/Blu-ray box, which includes episodes 12-23, will release on June 28, 2023. A teaser and ten-minute behind-the-scene clip of the music video is available on Aniplex’s official YouTube channel.
