Echoes of a rainy voiceOrangestar

This is a song I want to listen to when things aren’t going well.
Orangestar’s characteristically straightforward lyrics seep into a wounded heart.
The title “Amekigoe” (rain-cry/cry in the rain) gives the sense of desperately shouting for help in the rain, and I feel like the song speaks on behalf of painful feelings.

As a band from Osaka, Milky Way is rapidly rising in popularity.
They often sing about themes like bullying and suicide, yet their melodies are very catchy.
When you set painful feelings to a catchy tune, it somehow makes you feel a little saved, doesn’t it?

Yura Yura Teikoku is a band with a pleasant, wobbly, unsettled sound—there’s something unstable about it that feels good.
You can sense their musical style even in the band’s name, right? Here’s one of their dark, sickly songs from a group that, to the sorrow of many fans, disbanded in 2010.
No policy, no anger, no assertions, nothing.
My empty self is exactly that—yes…

A song I especially want you to listen to when times are tough is “Daijoubu” by BENI GOODMAN.
It aired on NHK’s “Minna no Uta” in 2019 and became a hot topic.
It’s not a song about illness, but it gently wraps around those who are suffering alone.
Regardless of the type or severity of an illness, I think many people carry their burdens in silence, unable to tell anyone.
There are nights when the anxiety becomes overwhelming and you can’t sleep.
In those moments, please give this song a listen.
