Kawa no Nagare no Yō ni

"Kawa no nagare no yō ni" (川の流れのように, "Like the Flow of the River") is the last single recorded by Japanese enka singer Hibari Misora, as she died soon after its release in 1989. It was composed by Akira Mitake, with lyrics by Yasushi Akimoto. It was voted the greatest Japanese song of all time during a national poll in 1997 by NHK, with more than 10 million votes. It is often the song of choice for artists performing live tributes to Misora.

The song inspired the Kawa model used in occupational therapy.[1]
