"Glorious Mind" is Zard's 43rd and first posthumous single by Japanese band Zard. It was released single on December 12, 2007 through B-Gram Records label.
Background
The song was the last song recorded by Izumi Sakai before she died. Although the song was not complete at the time of Izumi Sakai's death, the chorus part had been recorded with assistance of Yuri Nakamura from Japanese pop band Garnet Crow. The extra minutes recorded in English were from another unrelated and unreleased song.
The song was used as a 21st opening theme song of Detective Conan.
Oricon Charting
The single debuted at number 2 on the Japanese Oricon weekly charts and sold over 84,000 copies in total.{{cite web|url=http://contents.oricon.co.jp/news/confidence/50552/full/|title=ZARDの"ラストソング"が初登場2位|publisher=Oricon|date=2007-12-18|accessdate=2010-04-21|language=ja}}
