Selling over one million copies and securing a spot in the 18th NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen, it has become a classic in the history of Japanese pop music.
While influenced by Western music, it retains the distinct character of Japanese kayōkyoku, with a beautiful melody and lyrics that resonate deeply—continuing to be cherished by many to this day.

BreakthroughSubaru Ichinose (CV: Ishikawa Kaito)
It’s the opening theme of the gag anime Space Battleship Tiramisu, which first makes you think it’s a cool mecha show.
It’s sung by Kaito Ishikawa, the voice actor who plays the protagonist, Subaru Ichinose.
It’s a hot, fast-paced rock number that gets you pumped just by listening! Despite the song’s driving energy, the key isn’t that high, so it’s recommended for those who aren’t confident in their vocal range.
Be sure to sing it with plenty of emotion!
Blue RainChekkāzu
Blue Rain, the 15th single released by The Checkers in 1987.
Fans will likely find it especially nostalgic.
Perhaps because it was their first overseas recording, done in London, the track is enveloped in a sound that feels like cold, dry air seeping into your skin.
On gloomy rainy days, you sometimes just want to rely on someone, don’t you? In the end, it was me who was being consoled from my sadness… Naoyuki’s wistful, deeply emotive saxophone—echoing the sound of the rain and the aching emotions— is absolutely irresistible.
Blue Hawaiidikku mine
A singer overflowing with the charm of a Showa-era deep voice, Dick Mine presents a cover of an Elvis Presley song.
I was surprised to learn that cover versions of Western music already existed back then.
And the Japanese translation is so well-crafted that you wouldn’t even think it’s a cover.

A heartwarming love song by Naoto Inti Raymi, born from a songwriting camp in Colombia.
Blending pop elements with Latin rhythms, it conveys deep love and gratitude for someone special.
Released in August 2024, with a lyric video now on YouTube.
Created while confronting profound themes such as “life,” “death,” and “existence,” the song emphasizes the importance of cherishing the present moment.
Naoto’s characteristically bright, uplifting melody provides a striking contrast to the profound lyrics.
It’s the perfect track for reflecting on the fragility of life and the nature of happiness.
