I ain’t gonna bother trying.NMB48
This song conveys the importance of loosening up and relaxing.
Released in October 2024 as NMB48’s 30th single, it’s an ambitious work commemorating the group’s 13th debut anniversary.
Set to a poppy, catchy melody, the lyrics are striking for their theme of “not overdoing it.” It has a unique charm that both lifts listeners’ spirits and lets them catch their breath.
Its first performance at the Hibiya Open-Air Concert Hall thrilled about 3,000 fans.
It gently speaks to people today, who tend to push themselves too hard, about the importance of living true to oneself.
Sumire September LoveSHAZNA
This is the second single by SHAZNA, a six-member rock band that was counted as one of the “Big Four” of the visual kei scene at the time of their major-label debut and has been active since their 2017 reunion with a lineup that adds new members to the original ones.
It’s a cover of a song by the 1980s rock band Ippu-Do and became a hit after being used as the ending theme for the debate variety show Beat Takeshi’s TV Tackle.
Its bright, oriental-tinged melody and arrangement have a pop appeal that blows away the melancholic autumn mood.
An unforgettable, addictive tune, it’s an imperishable classic loved across generations.
Autumn breezeSID
This is a piece by SID that feels like looking back on autumn memories and expressing the many emotions found there.
The overall sound is light and airy; while there’s a touch of wistfulness, it also evokes an image of enjoying the passing of the season.
Autumn, once associated with sadness and a sense of urgency that made this time of year difficult, is portrayed as a season that—over the years—reveals its pleasures as well.
The song depicts this change of heart, conveying the joy of gaining the emotional space to savor the shifting seasons.
Love at first sightVaundy
This song “Hitomibore,” which is also the theme for TV Asahi’s late-night drama Japanese Style, is one of those tracks that makes you nod and say, “That’s Vaundy for you.” The groove that makes your body sway side to side is something you’ll definitely want to share with close friends.
Even the title—“Hitomibore,” which feels like a coined word—sounds cool.
The lyrics superbly capture that instant when you look into someone’s eyes and become enchanted, stretching that moment into something like eternity.
By tracing only the outline of love without explicitly saying “I’m falling in love,” the lyrics might even serve as a model love letter.
Highly recommended for the autumn of romance.
Crazy Party Night ~Revenge of the Pumpkin~kyarī pamyu pamyu
When it comes to major events in autumn, Halloween is the first that comes to mind.
It’s a unique occasion that combines a spooky vibe with a lively atmosphere.
This song, powerfully sung by Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, seems to express the essence of Halloween head-on.
With a sound that blends grand, march-like, forceful tones and the digital timbres that Yasutaka Nakata is known for, it feels like it captures the modern Halloween where various cultures intersect.
It’s also striking that a vegetable symbolic of Halloween appears in the lyrics; the light, lilting words are charming and further highlight the fun spirit of Halloween.

A gentle, richly flavored autumn pop tune from Southern All Stars, one of Japan’s most iconic bands that have long dominated the country’s music charts.
