Our dizzying encounterŌhashi Torio

Ohashi Trio / “Our Dazzling Encounter” (Theme song of the film ‘Good Stripes’)

Haven’t many of us imagined meeting someone like this, going on a date like that, and saying such romantic lines…? This song by Ohashi Trio, a singer-songwriter known for stylish, pop-leaning music, was included on the 2015 album “PARODY.” It was chosen as the theme song for the film “Good Stripes,” which made it a hot topic.

The sound brims with euphoria and is absolutely lovely! Listening to it somehow makes you feel giddy with excitement.

It feels like the start of a joyful romance!

A straightforward love song — KingrassHoppers “38°C” NEW PV

It’s a very long song, but it’s filled with deep emotion.

It sings wholeheartedly about the importance of encounters and about the people who become even more important from there.

It’s quite difficult to sing at karaoke, so I think of it more as a song to listen to rather than to sing.

I want to be your lover.Abe Mao

Mao Abe – I Want to Be Your Lover [Official Music Video]

This is a classic song by Mao Abe, released in 2009, who’s also famous as a guru of love.

For those who were teens back then, isn’t it an unforgettable track? I often heard it on the radio and was moved.

The one-of-a-kind title, so typical of Abe-ma, really makes an impact, doesn’t it? It’s a rock number depicting Abe-ma’s feelings of first love when she was a senior in high school, and the lyrics are heartbreakingly sad.

You want to know more, but you hold back, afraid of being disliked or thought of as a bother… Anyone who’s ever had a crush can relate, I think.

The Beginning of LoveIeiri Reo × Ōhara Sakurako × Fujiwara Sakura

Leo Ieiri × Sakurako Ohara × Sakura Fujiwara “The Beginning of Love” Live ver.

A love song about meeting someone, sung by three of today’s hottest divas: Leo Ieiri, Sakurako Ohara, and Sakura Fujiwara.

The chorus, where all three harmonize, is incredibly compelling.

Their solo parts also let you feel each singer’s unique charm.

Since you can hear all three voices at once, it’s a great way to discover a new favorite.

Debating “who’s the best” is fine, but it’s better to appreciate what each of them brings and take an interest in all three.

This song reminds you that there are such great singers even today.

EncounterMACO

MACO – Encounter [Studio Video]

This is the coupling track to MACO’s song “Koigokoro” (“Love’s Feelings”).

Even as a B-side, it has a strong presence.

It captures the feeling that when love begins, every day is fun but your emotions and days become busy.

It’s a song many women in love can deeply relate to.

fragileEvery Little Thing

Every Little Thing / fragile

It’s a song whose lyrics sing about a relationship that began with a chance encounter, and it’s something many women can really relate to.

Since it’s a ballad, it carries a slightly bittersweet feeling.

It conveys a sense of tender affection—a love that feels a step beyond first love—so women who want to feel a bit more grown-up will find it especially relatable.

Romantic Flight – Kome Kome Club (Full)

This is Kome Kome Club’s 10th single.

It was used in an airline commercial, and the song’s appearance on the Kōhaku Uta Gassen made it a hot topic.

The single was released in two versions—an East Japan version and a West Japan version—with different B-sides, which was quite an unusual approach.

With its up-tempo feel and themes of the sky and travel, interwoven with depictions of romance, it remains popular not only among today’s around-40 generation but also with students and other younger listeners.
