The Toilet GodUemura Kana

This is Kana Uemura’s signature song, released in 2010.
That same year, she also performed at NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen.
Centered on FM radio and elsewhere, it quickly became a hot topic as soon as it started getting airplay, thanks to its simple warmth and bittersweetness in depicting the true story of Uemura and her grandmother.
While she usually writes the music first, for “Toire no Kamisama” the lyrics came first, which likely contributes to the depth of the narrative.
The roughly 10-minute structure, starting simply with acoustic guitar and growing more grand toward the end, is also moving.
Originally included on the mini-album “Watashi no Kakeratachi,” it was later released as a single after its long-running success.
Of course, this song is wonderful, and the album itself is a gem that helps you appreciate the importance of everyday life—definitely give it a listen.
Let’s become a familyFukuyama Masaharu

This song is a wedding reception classic.
Its lyrics paint an ideal picture of a wonderful family, and they portray the couple’s resolve to walk through life together, moving closer to that ideal.
It’s a song that makes you reflect on how warmly and wonderfully you were raised, and brings you to tears with gratitude.
To the futureayaka

The song that has been attracting attention after being featured in an NTT Docomo commercial is Mirai e (To the Future).
It’s a track by singer-songwriter Ayaka.
She’s also a mother of two, and it’s said she wrote this piece based on the feelings she experienced while raising her children.
Because it sings of hope for the future and love for the children who will live in that future, parents in particular may find it especially relatable.
It’s also recommended for those looking for a love song that isn’t about romance.
Goodbye, my beloved.Hana*Hana

At first glance this song seems like a heartbreak song, but it’s actually said to be about the singer’s late grandfather.
Thinking of it that way, doesn’t it really make all the grandpa’s kids tear up? Even if you take it as a breakup song, it still hits hard and brings you to tears.
This song is truly a masterpiece, isn’t it?
In conclusion
Have you found the one song that moves your heart? Each one was a number filled with earnest feelings and wishes that was truly touching, wasn’t it? The music that resonates with you changes depending on how you feel in the moment. How about immersing yourself in the emotion while listening to a tear-jerker that pierces your heart?
