is the thirteenth single by Japanese recording artist Aya Ueto, released February 15, 2006 as the third and final single from Ueto's fourth studio album License. Overview "Egao no Mama de" was written and produced by Ryoji from Ketsumeishi, while its title was chosen by Ueto. The song marks Ueto's second consecutive collaboration with Ryoji, who also wrote and produced "Kaze o Ukete" (2005). "Egao no Mama de" is Ueto's first single to not contain a B-side, instead two "mega mixes," one featuring a mash-up of Ueto's singles to date, and the other featuring songs from License, were included. The theme of the song is growth and its lyrics were inspired by the cherry blossom season, which is commonly associated with encounters and separations. The music video features a scene in which Ueto gets a drastic haircut to reflect her personal growth. Chart performance "Egao no Mama de" debuted on the Oricon Daily Singles chart at number 8 on February 14, 2006 and peaked at number 15 on the Oricon Weekly Singles chart, with 9,546 copies sold in its first week.
