You probably don’t usually search for music by the first hiragana of the title, but that’s exactly why it can lead you to songs you wouldn’t normally come across.

BOY MEETA GIRLPrizmmy☆

Released in 2013, this is Prizmmy☆’s seventh single.

The original song was released by TRF in 1994, and Prizmmy☆’s cover stays very close to the original.

Listening to TRF’s songs from that era makes me feel nostalgic for Komuro’s music.

While it has been rearranged, I feel that one hallmark of the Komuro sound is that those tracks from back then still feel like good, modern-sounding music today.

RAMENGVRL, a female rapper gaining popularity in Indonesia, has collaborated with Japan’s hip-hop queen Awich.

The result is “BOMBAE.” The hook in this track is especially striking.

The rap sections aren’t as notable, but the hook is mixed with a deep low end, making it an excellent match for women with lower voices.

It’s a track with hot vibes, yet it also exudes a cool sensuality in places—that’s one of its key appeals.

It’s a song that stands beside and encourages those suffering from prejudice and loneliness—one well worth a listen.

My favorite teacherRC sakuseshon

You probably have a teacher you’ll never forget, too.

This is a work that makes you think, “I’d love to see that person again.” It’s a song by the legendary rock band RC Succession, led by singer-songwriter Kiyoshiro Imawano, released in 1972 as their third single.

The model for the song is Kiyoshiro’s homeroom teacher from his school days.

Set to a pop melody, it sings about what he liked about his teacher, and listening to it gives you a warm, cozy feeling.

At the same time, it brings a slight pang of nostalgia as you think back on your own homeroom teacher.

Maybe it’s time to reach out to that teacher you haven’t seen since graduation.
