Dream is over nowHarada Tomoyo

It’s a mid-tempo number that quietly accepts the end of love and paints a beautiful morning of farewell.

It’s a song by Tomoyo Harada, who continues to shine with versatile charm as both an actress and a singer, included on the classic album “Blue Orange,” released in August 1998.

The track comes from one of the “Nordic Pop Trilogy” albums she created with renowned Swedish producer Tore Johansson.

The scene of waving with a smile—grateful for having met, even as you realize the dream has ended—tightens the chest.

The refined, acoustics-based sound paired with her translucent vocals brings out a tender sense of wistfulness.

Why not listen to it on a quiet night alone, when you want to gently sort out your feelings?

It’s a song that cuts deep into the hearts of those worn out by pursuing goals and feeling powerless.

It portrays the desperate wish of a protagonist, struggling amid resignation and self-loathing, to still be understood by someone.

L’Arc~en~Ciel「DIVE TO BLUE」-Music Clip-
DRIVE TO BLUEL'Arc〜en〜Ciel

An alternative rock number bursting with a sense of speed, driven by piercing, vibrant synthesizer tones.

Released in March 1998 as the lead single from the album “HEART,” it topped the Oricon weekly chart for two consecutive weeks.

The lyrics are said to capture the distinctive early-morning atmosphere felt in boyhood and a liberating sense that you could go anywhere.

At the same time, they convey a certain peril, like plunging into the color blue, offering a depth that can resonate as either hope or despair depending on the listener’s state of mind.

It’s a song that will firmly push you forward when you’re ready to break through your current situation and step into a new world.

fuse (detonating fuse)Tegoshi Yūya

Dōkasen, released as a digital single on July 9, 2025.

Chita Henry, who worked on Vibration from Yuya Tegoshi’s first best-of album, Yuya Tegoshi SINGLES BEST, released on May 14, 2025, also wrote and composed this new track, Dōkasen.

The verses (A and B sections) are relatively calm and sit comfortably in chest voice, but the range shoots up heading into the chorus, making it a great pick for singers who excel in high notes.

Most of the highs are in falsetto—and a powerful falsetto at that—so you’ll want to really project them.

Before singing, take a deep breath, and aim your voice diagonally upward from your head with a crisp “s-pahhn!” image.

Alternatively, imagine resonating strongly in the back of your head—this might also make it easier to hit.

Try both and see which works better for you!
