Sekaijū no Dare Yori Kitto" (世界中の誰よりきっと, lit. "Surely More Than Anyone in the World") is the 25th single by Japanese entertainer Miho Nakayama (中山美穗) and a collaboration with the band Wands(上杉昇). Written by Show Wesugi, Nakayama, and Tetsurō Oda, the single was released on October 28, 1992, by King Records.
Background and release
"Sekaijū no Dare Yori Kitto" was co-produced by Daiko Nagato, who selected it from a stock of Tetsurō Oda's compositions. Takeshi Hayama gave it an 8-beat arrangement. The main single has Nakayama on lead vocals with Wands vocalist Show Wesugi on backing vocals. The B-side, "Sekaijū no Dare Yori Kitto (Part II)", was rearranged as a slow ballad with the vocal roles reversed.
The song was used as the theme song of the Fuji TV drama series Dare ka ga Kanojo wo Aishiteru (誰かが彼女を愛してる, Someone Loves Her), which also starred Nakayama. It was also used as a hold tone for a line of Sanyo cordless phones in 1995.
"Sekaijū no Dare Yori Kitto" became Nakayama's seventh No. 1 and Wands' second No. 1 on Oricon's weekly singles chart. It sold over 1,833,000 copies and was certified Quadruple Platinum by the RIAJ, making it Nakayama's biggest-selling single of her career. The song was also certified Platinum in Download Sales by the RIAJ in December 2020.
Nakayama and Wands performed the song on the 43rd Kōhaku Uta Gassen in 1992.
