Kiroro (キロロ) is a Japanese pop duo from Yomitan, Okinawa that debuted in 1996. Kiroro debuted in 1996 as an independent band, and later made their major debut in 1998 with the song "Nagai Aida (長い間)". They performed on Kōhaku Uta Gassen in 1998, 1999 and 2001. The ending theme for the Japanese dub of The Good Dinosaur was contributed by them, and was a newly rerecorded "Mother Earth version" of their song "Best Friend". When vocalist Chiharu Tamashiro was in her primary school days, she visited Ikedamachi, Hokkaido, for a regional exchange program. The Ainu language made a deep impression on her. With the Ainu words 'Kiroru' and 'Kiroro-an', Tamashiro and Kinjo decided on the name "Kiroro" for the group; "Kiroru" meaning a wide walking path and "Kiroro-an" meaning "resilient" and "healthy."
