Sung over a sparkling sound is a slightly bitter love story.

It’s a song performed by Tsubaki Factory from Hello! Project.

SAKKImei-chan

This is the first song released by Mei-chan after resuming his activities, which came out in July 2025.

Centered on themes of frustration with modern society and self-discipline, Mei-chan himself also took part in writing the lyrics.

His vocals—laced with screams and masterful vibrato—dance over an aggressive mixture rock sound, sounding like a cry straight from the soul.

You can feel his bristling life force coming through directly.

For anyone who wants to change something or fire themselves up, this track will surely serve as a powerful cheer.

Why do we run?Nogizaka 46

This is a song by Nogizaka46 that vividly captures the dazzling glow of youth—being driven by something for no reason at all.

In response to the question of why we run and sweat, the lyrics boldly declare, “There’s no meaning,” embodying that uniquely youthful impulse where the body moves before the mind can think.

Perhaps it’s precisely because it’s sung by the 6th generation, the group’s next wave, that the words carry a genuine, unfeigned radiance.

Included on the single “Same numbers,” released in July 2025, this track is a youth pop anthem that blends coolness with an emotional resonance.

A song by Ai Tomioka that feels like turning the unstoppable pounding in your chest—just from gazing at someone you like—straight into sound.

It captures the flutter of a budding romance, when just meeting eyes makes your mind race with positive fantasies like, “Maybe we feel the same way.” The moment you feel fate strike— that electric ‘buzz’—is sung over a pop sound.

As you listen, it’s almost like your own heart starts racing too.

If you play it when your heart is full at the very start of love, it’ll make you feel seen and validated.
