Bullseye!! My hunch was spot on!!Takehara Pisutoru
This song was used as the theme for a Credit Saison commercial supporting Japan’s national soccer team.
It’s a track by folk singer Pistil Takehara, released as a digital single in October 2024.
The powerful band sound and rugged vocals are outstanding—it’s a song that makes you sit up straight just by listening.
The lyrics convey a sense of anticipation for growth that comes from staying true to one’s convictions, and it really fires you up.
I think it’s a motivational anthem that can give you strength in many situations.
Mela!Ryokushokushakai
Anyone who holds onto hope can become a hero someday.
Released by Ryokuoushoku Shakai in April 2020, this song sings of that very courage and passion.
It carefully portrays a protagonist who, despite struggling with their own powerlessness, is driven by the desire to protect someone dear.
Its pop, energetic sound and deeply relatable, message-rich lyrics are captivating.
Included on the album “SINGALONG,” it was also featured in a commercial.
I wholeheartedly recommend this track as a companion for those taking a first step into a new chapter of life or wrestling with the decision to take on a challenge.
If you smileDREAMS COME TRUE
DREAMS COME TRUE’s “Anata ga Waraeba,” written right after the Great East Japan Earthquake, is a song that gives energy and courage to everyone, isn’t it? It was also created in 2011 to be provided to Alisa Mizuki, and it’s said to carry a double meaning: “All the more reason to smile in times like these,” and “If Mizuki-san smiles, everyone will feel energized.” It’s one of DCT’s songs that isn’t too difficult and easy to hum without thinking, so why not belt it out with plenty of energy at karaoke?
