"Kindan no Telepathy" (のテレパシー) is a song recorded by Japanese singer Shizuka Kudo, from her debut solo studio album Mysterious. It was released through Canyon Records as the lead single from Mysterious on August 31, 1987.

Background
"Kindan no Telepathy" was written and produced by Yasushi Akimoto and Tsugutoshi Gotō, the same duo behind all five singles of the Onyanko Club offshoot idol group Ushirogami Hikaretai, of which Kudo was still an active member when she made her solo debut. Its lyrics describe the intuitive feeling about a romantic breakup that the protagonist is pretending to ignore. "Kindan no Telepathy" debuted at number-one on the Oricon Singles Chart and charted for eight weeks.

Nana Katase version
In 2004, Japanese singer Nana Katase released a dance-pop inspired rendition of "Kindan no Telepathy" as the second single from her second album Extended, on which she covered seven hit songs from the 1980s. Katase's version was produced by Hirata Shōichirō. "Kindan no Telepathy" was the sixth and final single released by Katase. It debuted at number 38 on the Oricon Singles Chart and charted for two weeks.
