"Dakishimeru" (抱きしめる?) is BoA's 17th Japanese single, The title track was unexpectedly previewed at the Lipton event on October 15, and the song was reminiscent of some of her earlier songs such as Valenti (with the same writer and producer). This was the third single for BoA's then-upcoming album, Outgrow.
Released on November 23, 2005,
The "Dakishimeru" music video was featured in commercials for the Japanese music site, music.jp.
The music video for "Dakishimeru" was shot in an undisclosed location and features three scenes: BoA and her dancers dancing in a "club environment", BoA wearing a "Deluxe" shirt and standing on a stand (as the camera whirls around her) in front of a purple backdrop, and the last in which BoA is sitting in/standing by a car (a Lotus Elise). There are also short scenes in which BoA walks down a staircase in each of the three outfits she wears in the video. A small controversy surrounding the music video arose when a screen-cap of the music video was captured revealing a small glimpse of BoA's undergarments.
