My son,Fujioka Fujimaki
It’s a song where a father speaks to his son—very profound, humble, and expressing straightforward feelings.
It’s sprinkled with fatherly life advice.
This one is included as a special edition on the album released in 2006.
LullabyHagiwara Kenichi
This is a classic song by Kenichi Hagiwara, known as Shoken, an actor and singer who still has many fans.
In it, he poignantly sings about his feelings for the young child he parted from.
It also drew attention for being used as the ending theme of the 1983 film “Ryuji.” Conveying a certain clumsy kind of love, the song is included on the 1980 album “Don Juan.”
rainbow-coloredayaka
With its warm, comforting melody and powerful vocals, this song gently enfolds a hope-filled moment, as if welcoming the birth of new life.
Released in June 2014 as a single by Ayaka, it was written as the theme song for the NHK drama series Hanako to Anne.
Portraying the story of a life everyone walks, the process of shaping oneself step by step, and hope for the future, the piece—centered on the tender tones of an acoustic guitar—closely resonates with the listener’s heart.
It’s a song that gives a gentle push forward, perfect for moments of new beginnings such as weddings or childbirth, inspiring you to face ahead and walk in your own way.
You Were Born to Be LovedMatsumoto Yuka
A worship song composed by Korean pastor Lee Min-seop.
In Korea, it’s often sung for birthdays and is said to be quite popular.
The song carries the message that everyone is born to be loved and is still receiving that love even now.
Everyone is someone precious to someone else, and there is someone who feels great joy in your existence.
For the sake of those who love us, let’s cherish ourselves.
Embrace things as they are.Sugiyama Yutaro
Love means nothing unless it’s communicated clearly.
That’s the message of singer Yutaro Sugiyama’s song “Accept Me As I Am.” Once an outstanding child, he later fell into delinquency and even had ties to organized crime for a time.
What helped him turn his life around was a single sentence from his father: “You are my precious son.” Even if you truly love someone, it won’t come across unless you put it into words—and it won’t be conveyed if it’s just a self-satisfied imposition.
The message that what really matters is accepting someone exactly as they are strikes a deep chord.
Daddy and Your ShadowŌta Hiromi
A celebrated song that warmly portrays the bond between parent and child.
Set against the backdrop of a school sports day footrace, it gently sings of a child’s growth and the father’s feelings as he watches over them.
At first, the father is bewildered to see his child running at the back of the pack.
But moved by the child’s single-minded effort, he comes to realize, “It’s okay not to be first.” Broadcast on NHK’s “Minna no Uta” from April to May 2001, the piece captured the hearts of many viewers.
Why not listen to it together as a parent and child, and use it as a chance to share your feelings with one another?
