"Ano Yume o Nazotte" (あの夢をなぞって, "Tracing That Dream") is a song by Japanese duo Yoasobi from their debut EP, The Book (2021). It was released as a single on January 18, 2020, through Sony Music Entertainment Japan. Like their previous single, "Ano Yume o Nazotte" was based on Monocon 2019-winning short story, titled Yume no Shizuku to Hoshi no Hana, written by Sōta Ishiki.[1] The song and its based story are about a love story at a fireworks festival displayed by a high school girl and her classmate boy who would confess to her in her dream.[2] The music video was released two days later.[3]

The English version of the song, titled "Tracing a Dream", was included on the duo's first English-language EP E-Side, released on November 12, 2021.[4] The ballade version, featured on CalorieMate television advertisement, Midnight Train, was released on March 30, 2022.[5] The song also accompanied the live action movie of its based story Yume no Shizuku to Hoshi no Hana, which was released to the vertical theater application Smash on March 24.[6]

The song was playable in smartphone music game BanG Dream! Girls Band Party! for a limited time between October and November 2021. During a special collaboration event between BanG Dream! franchise and VTuber agency Hololive "Ano Yume o Nazotte" has been covered by Poppin'Party and Tokino Sora.[7]
