How about an exquisite R&B tune for a night when you want to bask in sweet, bittersweet feelings of love? Inspired by a butterfly necklace that REIKO reportedly wore on a daily basis, this track captures the flutter of budding romance, expressed through REIKO’s uniquely groovy vocals.

It’s perfect for a leisurely bath or a quiet, solitary evening—give it a listen.

As we take on more responsibility at work and at home, aren’t there moments when our hearts suddenly feel tired? For people of our generation who feel that way, the rock band Quruli from Kyoto offers a gentle companion.

One of their signature songs is Bara no Hana.

Released as a single in January 2001, this classic was later used as an insert song for the TBS drama Orange Days.

Marked by its steady beat and ennui-tinged melody, it carries the quiet of a rainy day, with choruses colored by SUPERCAR’s Miki Furukawa.

The lyrics evoke a world where reassurance and anxiety coexist—something that resonates more deeply now that we’ve gone through so many experiences.

Give it a listen when, in the midst of everyday life, you feel the urge to go just a little farther away.
