[edit] Overview

"Ho! SUMMER" is Tackey & Tsubasa's seventh single, and their first single to be dedicated to summer. The regular version of the CD came with a bonus track, the limited version came with a special key ring, and the CD+DVD version came with a DVD with choreography for the song "HO! SUMMER". The main track was used as the theme song for the drama "Gakincho~RETURN KIDS~" from July 31, 2006 to September 29, 2006. The Tsubasa solo song, "Mihatenu Yume", was used as the House Commodity "Dongari Corn" commercial song. The limited edition song, "Michi", was used as the image song for "Kawai Juku".

Sample of the translated lyrics:

Love is surfing, to the summer color Yeah! Yeah!

The season of being barefoot, let the light shine on you!

Love surfing, someone definitely call me darling, please!

The sun's shower

Please, please, me Yeah!^[1]
