That’s Why I Gave Up MusicNEW!Yorushika
Yorushika is a band composed of composer n-buna and vocalist suis.
The final track on their first full-length album, “だから僕は音楽を辞めた” (released in April 2019), shares the same title as the album itself: “だから僕は音楽を辞めた” (“That’s Why I Gave Up on Music”).
The song was created under the concept of turning into music a letter written by a young man who has decided to quit music, addressed to a person named Elma.
Riding on a driving piano and guitar sound, suis’s clear, translucent voice poignantly conveys the anguish and inner conflict of creation.
Said to reflect n-buna’s own experiences, the piece is likely to resonate deeply with anyone who feels on the verge of being crushed by reality while chasing their dreams.
It’s a track you’ll want to experience within the context of the entire album, which lets you relive the story.
Dame-toroboMushipi
To fully enjoy the crisp, satisfying tones, we recommend listening with headphones or earphones.
“Dame-Trobo” by Vocaloid producer Mushipi is a work whose video was released in January 2026.
It originally appeared on the 2025 release ROBO ROBO ROBO.
The lyrics, suffused with self-deprecation and resignation, are rendered in a catchy way.
You’ll find yourself unable to escape its worldview and sound arrangement, which never dwells solely in darkness.
One reason might be how solid Hatsune Miku’s vocals sound.
Take your time and let yourself sink into the music.
DunkTodoroki Hajime
Hololive Production VTuber Hajime Todoroki’s digital single “Dunk,” released in January 2026, drew attention for being both written and choreographed by the artist herself.
Its lyrics, which parallel the flow of a basketball game with the push-and-pull of romance, pair with a rhythm-rich sound to create an addictive track.
The more you listen, the more it makes you want to fall in love! It’s an energetic dance tune with a danceable beat that gets your body moving.
Dan Dan Kokoro HikaretekuFIELD OF VIEW
DAN DAN Kokoro Hikareteku, famous as the theme of Dragon Ball GT, is an exceptionally easy-to-sing, high-scoring song among 90s anime-song × J-pop rock tracks! The overall vocal range is G#2 to A4, and the song starts right off with the chorus, so the first note is crucial since it sits a bit on the higher side.
As a band-style track, it should be easy to lock into the rhythm.
From the very beginning, focus on projecting your voice and aim it far forward.
It’s very important to prepare your voice as if taking a running start.
Since the melody generally climbs higher with each phrase, it’s best to sing with a growing sense of momentum.

A perfect Mrs.
GREEN APPLE track to hear during graduation season, when anxiety and excitement mix.
The lyrics question your true self and gently urge you to love yourself—including your weaknesses—giving you the courage to take a new step forward.
Written as the theme song for NHK General’s “Mrs.
GREEN APPLE 18 Festival” in January 2025, the song is also included on their best-of album “10,” released in July of the same year.
On the program, a chorus performance with 1,000 18-year-olds was showcased, and its sheer energy became a hot topic.

It’s okayji ma ma
Many of you probably remember that gentle singing voice from the commercial! This song by jimama, a singer-songwriter from Okinawa, is a warm ballad that seems to wrap listeners’ anxieties in comfort.
The words, inspired by “the precious person who always supports you,” resonate deeply with hearts facing graduation or a new departure.
Released as a single in April 2009, it was featured in a Taiyo Yakuhin Kogyo TV commercial at the time and played in living rooms across the country.
It topped the charts in Okinawa and was rediscovered after a 2014 TV appearance, remaining a beloved classic.
It’s also included on the album “BEST OF jimama ~Kimi ni Okuru Uta~.” As spring brings changes, it’s perfect for friends who are feeling anxious.
Rather than forcing encouragement, it’s filled with a gentle presence that simply stays by your side—sing it at a farewell party or karaoke, and the whole room is sure to be wrapped in a warm atmosphere!
