Music to Listen to at Breakfast (31–40)
Cherry Blossom Societyyuzu
When I listen to this song, I feel very warm inside.
It brings out my honest feelings for the people I care about and leaves me with a cozy feeling.
It makes me want to listen to it even when it’s not cherry blossom season.
It’s a song that makes me feel like I can sincerely wish for the smiles of everyone I love—those by my side and those far away.
AM11:00HY
This song, one of HY’s signature tracks, is also highly recommended as something to listen to when you wake up! The BPM is around 100, on the relaxed side, but still within the tempo range considered good for waking up.
The biggest reason I recommend this track is the beginning of the song.
It starts with a soft synth intro, followed by a clean, refreshing riff, and then Hideyuki Shinzato’s wonderfully fresh vocals in the first verse—perfect for the morning! Just like the title suggests, it’s ideal for those days off when you want to get up a little more slowly.
In the MorningMrs. GREEN APPLE
A refreshing rock number that cuts through the morning air with a resonant blast.
It’s a song by Mrs.
GREEN APPLE, released as their third single in 2016.
The lyrics sing of the hope and possibilities felt with each new morning, and Motoki Omori’s soaring vocals match perfectly with the band’s dynamic, vibrant sound.
It’s a track that blows away the morning blues.
Even those still tucked in bed might feel compelled to jump up when they hear it.
InfernoMrs. GREEN APPLE
Forget gentle mornings—this track is perfect for anyone who wants to wake up with the energy dialed up.
With its fierce beat and sensually edgy vocals, this stunning song bursts with a sense of speed that could be called the pinnacle of guitar rock.
It’s just a bit more dramatic than usual and feels like it could turn your morning into a movie opening.
OH！SHISHAMO
Among SHISHAMO’s songs with uplifting lyrics, Ashita mo is popular as a cheer-up anthem, but for waking up, this track is my recommendation! Its BPM is around 210, so it’s fast, but the positive lyrics and the gradually building arrangement perfectly match the conditions for a good wake-up song.
It starts with just palm-muted guitar accompaniment and vocals, then adds only the kick drum, and after that—everyone in! It’s got a clean, refreshing feel, making it a great pick for the morning.
Music to listen to at breakfast (41–50)
Philadelphia fleabaneYOASOBI
There’s also a perfect morning track among YOASOBI’s songs, which are hugely popular especially with younger generations! This one sits around BPM 130, which is about the upper limit of what’s considered good for waking up, so it’s especially recommended if you like up-tempo music.
The intro is structured so that the number of instruments gradually increases, and the phrases build up bit by bit.
In particular, the chorus features a four-on-the-floor dance beat and a bouncy bass that really stand out—by the time the first chorus ends, you’ll probably be fully awake.
Ikura’s flowing, crisp vocals are also just the kind of voice you want to hear in the morning.
Spring Dayaimyon
Among Aimyon’s songs, this one especially overflows with a happy vibe! It starts with a gentle guitar riff, and the soft synth tones that come in afterward feel wonderfully soothing.
The structure—calming down in the first verse and then gradually building up toward the chorus—makes it perfect for a morning listen! The tempo sits at a relaxed, just-right BPM of around 110.
With its strikingly beautiful melody line, it’s highly recommended if you’re looking for a refreshing wake-up.
