Stand in the Rain by the band Superchick is a perfect example of rising up over your mistakes and not letting them hold you back. This is the reason we chose it for our soundtrack. Chiyo herself has to overcome her many mistakes and become stronger. Which, with the help of Mameha and her faith in the Chairman, does happen.
Roots Before Branches by Room For Two is a perfect example of Chiyo's struggle. She is thrust into a world she is unfamiliar with and is told she must try to become a successful geisha, but she doesn't yet have her 'roots' and it proves to be a continuously difficult ordeal. Chiyo, however, eventually finds her roots and is able to find her place in the world.
