[Healing] Songs that ease worries and anxieties to lighten the heart. Comforting songs (11–20)
About meMrs. GREEN APPLE
The gentle ballad “Boku no Koto” by the rock band Mrs.
GREEN APPLE.
Though they’re often associated with a strong rock image, this is a ballad rich with a softly supportive message.
It feels like a song that quietly reaches out a hand and pulls you out of anxious days; as you listen, it’s as if the view before you opens wider and wider.
When you’re feeling uneasy or sad, try remembering this song.
Keeping it on your phone like a good-luck charm makes it a reassuring track.
Tomorrow as wellSHISHAMO
When you’re feeling down, you just want to blast away the gloom with rock, right? This track is perfect for that: “Ashita mo” by the all-girl three-piece band SHISHAMO.
It’s a song with a driving beat and lyrics that are down-to-earth and real.
No overthinking—just a big, straight-from-the-heart performance that’ll simply lift you up.
It’s a number we want everyone who’s giving it their all to hear—people at work, students at school, anyone striving hard.
Is there still anything that love can do?RADWIMPS
With its thought-provoking title that asks, “Is There Still Anything That Love Can Do?”, this is a characteristically deep RADWIMPS song.
It begins with a solemn piano-and-vocal arrangement, and Yojiro Noda’s conversational singing is so beautiful that you can’t help but be drawn in.
Gradually, the sound grows more powerful, and both his vocals and the drama of the piece intensify.
In everyday life, each time I find myself humming this catchy melody, it makes me pause and think.
Neighbors of the worldNogizaka 46
A song released in June 2020.
The music video, which featured not only current members but also graduated members, became a hot topic.
It’s a song dedicated to those fighting on the medical front lines and to days when the future feels uncertain.
The straightforward, earnest vocals seem to ease feelings of anxiety, resonating deeply and bringing a tear to the eye.
Amid invisible fears, it’s a ballad that helps you cherish various connections, transcending the bond between the members and their fans.
It also stands by you in everyday struggles and gives you great courage.
Full-Power BoySukima Suichi
It’s Sukima Switch’s fifth single, released in 2005, and one of their signature songs.
As the title suggests, it’s a track that seems to set a boy’s purity, innocence, and headlong drive to music just as they are.
It’s bursting with positivity—just listening to it lifts your spirits and makes your worries feel silly.
LetterSHE’S
A 2019 digital single by the piano rock band SHE’S.
It sings about the confusion and anxiety that come with growing up, and its nostalgic melody and vocals—Ryouma Inoue’s gentle, emotionally rich voice—really resonate.
It portrays a very human way of living, where you’d rather not fight, yet still keep going even as you hurt one another, and I think it’s a song that stays close to complex feelings.
You can also sense a kind of beauty in the passage of time.
It makes you suddenly wonder whether that precious person you spent time with back then is doing well now.
The acoustic version is deeply moving, too!
