The monument commemorating the hit of Amagi-goe in front of Joren Fall

"Amagi-goe" (天城越え Walk Over Amagi Pass) is the 45th single by Japanese singer Sayuri Ishikawa.[2] The song is written by Osamu Yoshioka as lyricist, Tetsuya Gen (弦哲也) as composer and Nobuyuki Sakuraba (桜庭伸幸) as arranger. The single was released on July 21, 1986 by Nippon Columbia. The sleeve does not have the time of the song.

Together with "Tsugaru Kaikyo Fuyu-geshiki", the song is Ishikawa's most popular from her career. By the song, Ishikawa was nominated for the 28th Nippon Record Taisho Award (Japan Record Award 日本レコード大賞) in 1986 but she did not win the award.[3] As of 2013, Ishikawa has sung Amagi-goe eight times at the annual NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen.

There is a monument commemorating the song in front of the Jōren Falls in Amagi, Shizuoka Prefecture.

The song is not directly linked to the novella of the same title by Seichō Matsumoto nor to the movie of the same title based on the novella, which was released in 1983.[4]
