threadNakajima Miyuki
With its calm, memorable tone, this song is one that can make you feel at peace as you listen.
It has a gentle quality that makes it perfect for weddings and for celebrating the bride and groom.
Many artists have covered it as well, so those versions are a must-listen.
Sounds good.Ide Ayaka
This song, filled with Ayaka Ide’s charm, gently nestles close to the heart with its relaxed rhythm and tender melody.
Released on May 5, 2023, it drew significant attention as her first new work in six years.
Written and composed by Ide herself, it shines with a fresh musical direction that incorporates R&B elements.
The lyric “It’s just right when the important things are almost invisible” resonates with the importance of discerning the essence of things.
The track received power play on radio stations nationwide, including FM Miyazaki.
It’s perfect for listening while slowly enjoying a cup of coffee on your own.
Look up at the stars in the night sky (English Version)Yamaoka Mika
It’s a singing voice you’d want to listen to while sipping tea as time flows gently by.
A refined voice is essential for soothing the heart.
Like stars glittering in a clear sky, the way the voice shines at key moments seems to slowly permeate the body.
rayBUMP OF CHICKEN
There are times when you can’t help comparing yourself to others and end up hating yourself, right? If you know in your head that doing that is pointless… this song is for you.
It’s a grand, sweeping piece that makes comparing people feel ridiculous, because everyone has their own good qualities.
Be sure to enjoy the music video along with the song.
Dream-Chasing Bengalaimyon
Aimyong, who has become popular across a wide range of generations, even performed at the Kouhaku Uta Gassen at the end of 2018.
Many of Aimyong’s songs have a calming feel, but when you’re especially irritated, I recommend “Yumeoi Bengal.” It’s a bright rock song centered on a refreshing acoustic guitar sound, so it might help soothe your frustration.
miraclekururi
A medium-tempo ballad by Quruli that wraps you in a slow, acoustic-guitar-and-bass mood and leaves you feeling dreamy.
It was released as a single in 2011.
The soft sound is wonderfully soothing and guaranteed to calm you.
The delicate tone of Fujifabric’s Soichiro Yamauchi on electric guitar is especially fantastic! As the layers of sound gradually build and spread, it takes on the feel of a quiet marching band, and you can sense a future slowly moving forward—as if you were riding on the Galactic Railroad.
It’s a masterpiece that brings peace to the heart and makes you want to keep listening forever.
Gather the Windhappii endo
This song was made in the 1970s, but even today it doesn’t feel dated at all.
The lead vocal is by Haruomi Hosono.
The lyrics, consisting only of scenic descriptions, and the relaxed mood have a powerful healing effect on the heart.
It’s included on the 1971 album “Kazemachi Roman.” Many artists have recorded cover versions.
