Black OutAzari
When you say “a Vocaloid song with no video title,” most people can probably guess whose work it is.
It’s a track by Azari, a Vocaloid producer with many fans overseas, released in May 2022.
The electric sound is irresistible—less “cool” than downright “cold.” Its dark worldview, the lyrics that nimbly weave rhymes, and the melody are all captivating.
If this was your first time discovering Azari, be sure to check out other works like “Nightmare.”
BloodAzari
It’s a dark piece with heavy bass and an unsettling melodic line that pierces the heart.
Composed by Azari and released in October 2024, it features flower’s vocals, which exquisitely capture the song’s fantastical yet suggestive lyrical world.
Blood is used as a motif for love, drawing you into its downcast mood.
Once you’re hooked, there’s no escape—an unmistakably Azari-style electronic number.
BLOWIN’B’z
Included on the 1998 album “B’z The Best ‘Treasure’.” Used in a Calbee “Potato Chips” TV commercial.
A two-member music unit formed in 1988.
The song’s title came from Inaba’s impression after hearing a piece composed by Matsumoto—he imagined “it’s like the wind is blowin’…”.
It’s a cool, fast-paced track with a strong rock flavor.

BLOWIN’B’z
Known as an up-tempo pop-rock number, this song was released in May 1992 as B’z’s 10th single.
Its lyrics, using wind as a motif, portray change, growth, and a yearning for freedom, and are distinguished by the seamless fusion of Inaba’s powerful vocals with Matsumoto’s memorable guitar sound.
It was also featured in a Calbee “Potato Chips” commercial, bringing it recognition across a wide audience.
With crowd-pleasing moments like sound effects before the chorus and call-and-response at the end, it’s guaranteed to get people excited at live shows and in karaoke.
The vocal range isn’t particularly wide and the melody is easy to remember, making it a great choice for those trying B’z for the first time.
How about singing it with a positive mindset as a cheer for young people facing challenges?
brotherhoodB’z
It was released in 1999 as a track on B’z’s album Brotherhood.
Beyond the literal meaning of true brothers, the song is about their relationships with the people connected to them.
Inaba has said, “I created it with the theme of comrades who are connected even when they’re apart.” Thinking of it that way, you could say that brothers might be the beginning of comradeship.
Brand New Day feat. Tim Henson and Scott LePage from @PolyphiaBABYMETAL
This is one of BABYMETAL’s signature songs, which continues to captivate the world with a brilliant fusion of metal and pop.
While depicting a fantastical night sky and scenes of solitude, it carries a hopeful, uplifting message.
Featured on the album METAL GALAXY released in November 2019, the track showcases a guitarist from Polyphia and signals a new musical challenge for BABYMETAL.
In May 2024, it received its first live performance at Saitama Super Arena.
Through this song, why not feel the beginning of a brand-new day?
BloomingBAND-MAID
Who could have imagined that a band born from the idea of a woman who worked part-time at a maid café in Akihabara would grow into a group with global recognition and popularity? Formed in 2013 around guitarist/vocalist and lyricist Miku Kobato, BAND-MAID, as mentioned at the beginning, dons maid outfits inspired by Kobato’s part-time experience, calls their live shows “service” and their fans “masters” and “princesses.” Hearing that concept might lead some to mistake them for a novelty act, but their superb musicianship and the powerful yet catchy hard rock to heavy metal sound delivered through their dual-vocal setup—each with a distinct style—has captured the hearts of fans not only in Japan but around the world.
They’ve toured abroad extensively, and in 2023 they drew attention with an appearance at the legendary American mega-festival Lollapalooza.
If this piques your interest, be sure to experience their fiery, hard-hitting “service” in person!
