Songs That Encourage You Just by Listening (11–20)
MiracleGReeeeN
Many people may recognize it as the theme song of the drama ROOKIES.
In terms of content, it portrays the events and feelings of the two people who met.
However, it doesn’t come across as a love song; rather, it’s a track that prompts you to think about something broader and more abstract—like a way of living.
Letter ~Dear fifteen-year-old you~Anjura Aki
This track, which begins with a beautiful piano, is truly a “song that makes you listen.” The melody is composed almost entirely of piano, and Angela Aki’s imploring vocals reach straight to the listener.
It’s a piece you’ll want to take your time with—following the lyrics as if you’re reading poetry.
LOSERYonezu Kenshi
This is a song by Kenshi Yonezu, who started out as a Vocaloid producer and went on to make his major debut.
From the title “LOSER,” you might get a rather negative impression.
While the song voices the feelings of a loser, it’s precisely for that reason brimming with a power that says, “Move forward!” With its up-tempo flow and lyrics that strike one after another, the more you listen, the more new charms you discover—making it a truly compelling track.
At least this / Just this (one thing)WANIMA
A head-on battle with no tricks! It’s a song that’s quintessentially WANIMA.
Precisely because the band sound and the lyrics are simple, it shows that something real can be conveyed.
As you listen, you find yourself smiling before you know it—it’s full of that kind of fun, and it’s a track that makes you want to belt it out with everything you’ve got.
Go for it!!Urufuruzu
When you enter the working world, there are times when you can really feel down, right? For those who want to bounce back all at once with an energetic song in those moments, I recommend Ulfuls’ “Guts Da Ze!!”.
When it was released, Japan was also facing earthquakes and various incidents, but this is a song that has long been loved for brightening up the country!
rainbow-coloredayaka
It’s not that it’s singing about anything particularly special, nor is it a flashy tune.
But that gentle feeling that seeps into your heart is unique to this song.
It’s a track that feels like it warmly soaks into your body, like a tender hand guiding you along—one that stays close by your side.

Our TomorrowElefanto Kashimashi
Among Elephant Kashimashi’s many uplifting songs, this one is especially known for giving listeners a boost.
Many people will recognize it from the Ukon no Chikara TV commercial.
Without saying anything complicated, its utterly simple lyrics rouse our spirits.
It’s a song I especially recommend to anyone who feels worn out by everyday life.
