[DoriKamu Best] DREAMS COME TRUE’s Masterpieces & Popular Songs

POPS writer/editorKEI
Since discovering music during my school days, I’ve mainly listened to Japanese and Korean pop. I have experience writing articles for sites like Utaten. 2000s J-pop and 2010s K-pop were especially the soundtrack of my youth. With the mindset that “good is good,” I enjoy music across genres. Thanks to past work environments and their influence, I was exposed to lots of classic rock and kayōkyoku (Japanese popular songs), which may have broadened the scope of what I love. At RAG MUSIC, I currently focus on K-pop and J-pop. I strive to edit with a feel for the scene and an eye for hit potential.

DREAMS COME TRUE is a legendary duo that delivered numerous hit songs from the 1990s through the 2010s and earned nationwide popularity.

Their festive spirit is also a trademark, with massive DREAMS COME TRUE WONDERLAND concerts held once every four years and interactive events like DREAMS COME TRUE DISCO.

From love songs often heard at weddings and uplifting anthems that encouraged people across Japan to playful, fun tracks beloved by younger generations—like “Osaka LOVER”—their range is part of the appeal.

In this article, we’ll spotlight some of DREAMS COME TRUE’s greatest songs!

LAT.43°NDREAMS COME TRUE

LAT.43°N ～forty-three-degrees north latitude～ (from THE DREAM QUEST TOUR 2017 Live Ver.)

LAT.43°NDREAMS COME TRUE

A single released in 1989.

At the same time, the album “LOVE GOES ON…” was also released.

It came out right before Christmas.

The B-side includes a song titled “The Night When Santa and Angels Laugh.” The title seems to mean “43rd Parallel North.” It’s a very rhythmic song about winter love, and Miwa Yoshida’s clear voice harmonizes beautifully with the chill of the season.

The much-talked-about DREAMS COME TRUE version of the “Kanpo Life Dream Wonder! Campaign” commercial.

Because it’s a campaign offering luxurious prizes like concert tickets for DREAMS COME TRUE, their signature song “Mirai Yosouzu II” is prominently featured.

The atmosphere of being enveloped in great love and a sense of security that the song carries may be a perfect match for the image of insurance.

The universal and overwhelming presence of DREAMS COME TRUE manages to leave a striking impression even in a 15-second commercial—remarkable as ever.

Toward a tomorrow beyond imaginationDREAMS COME TRUE

This is the song that was used in the commercial for Toyota’s Estima Hybrid.

With its very bright melody and the warm vocals of Dreams Come True, I think it’s truly the perfect song for the Estima, a family car.

AND I LOVE YOUDREAMS COME TRUE

AND I LOVE YOU / DREAMS COME TRUE guitar solo singing cover

AND I LOVE YOUDREAMS COME TRUE

This song was written when vocalist Miwa Yoshida lost her common-law husband.

In this short, roughly two-minute piece, she expresses her wish for him to watch over her as she sings.

Thinking about how she must have felt—feeling sorry for making everyone listen to her private emotions—brings me to tears.
