aiko’s classic and popular songs

Here’s an introduction to the music of aiko, the female singer-songwriter known for popular songs like “Kabutomushi” and “Boyfriend.” Active since 1998, her charm lies in the coexistence of sweet, cute lyrics—much like her appearance—and a striking coolness that contrasts with them.

She often employs jazz-inspired chord progressions, and this sophisticated musical sense is another key to her popularity.

There’s also a story that her father was a friend of Hiroshi Madoka, and when she said as a child that she wanted to become a singer, Madoka told her, “Don’t do it—you’ll have a hard time.” Please enjoy her wonderful songs with this playlist.

A heartbreakingly bittersweet song about never being able to forget an ex.

It starts with a bright ska-style sound, but the artist says, “The lyrics are so dark and sorrowful that I at least made the music upbeat.” If you set the tune aside and just read the lyric sheet, you’ll see how full of lingering attachment the song really is.

This song is marked by a piano intro that makes you want to start running right away.

It settles down in the first verse, but builds up as if shifting into a higher gear toward the chorus, making it a bit different from aiko’s previous work.

Throughout the entire track, the bright, high-register piano stands out.
