"Tune the Rainbow" is the 12th single by Japanese singer Maaya Sakamoto. The lyrics to the title track were written by Yuho Iwasato and the music was composed and arranged by Yoko Kanno. It was used as the ending theme for the anime television movie RahXephon: Pluralitas Concentio in which Sakamoto also voiced a character. It was included in both the soundtrack album RahXephon Pluralitas Concentio O.S.T. and in the Single Collection + Nikopachi single collection.

The single features a track called "The Garden of Everything", with lyrics by Sakamoto and Chris Mosdell, and sung by Steve Conte and Sakamoto. This track is also composed by Kanno, with a submelody from Alexander Borodin's Polovetsian Dances.

The single reached the weekly top ten Oricon ranking, but as of 2006 it had not sold as many copies as "Kiseki no Umi", "Hemisphere" or "Loop", although those singles peaked lower in the ranking.[citation needed]
