[Emotional Song] A classic wishing for a child’s growth — a love song dedicated to my child

My Only Angel ~Angel~Matsuda Seiko

[Song Room] 92 Seiko Matsuda My Only Angel ~Angel~

This is a song written by Seiko Matsuda, one of Japan’s most iconic singers, for her daughter Sayaka.

After coming home from work, she’d be greeted by her daughter with a radiant, overflowing smile.

Even though she must have felt lonely at times, she would still show concern, saying, “You must be tired,” like an angel.

For this child, I would stake my life—I will protect her no matter what.

It’s a ballad whose lyrics overflow with the tender yet powerful feelings of a mother, resonating deeply in the heart.

Che’Nelle / “A Song for You” (2022) [LIVE]

Che’Nelle’s song, which overflows with compassion and gratitude for others, gently wraps thoughts for a loved one in a familiar melody infused with R&B elements and her crystal-clear vocals.

Resonating with many as a song that accompanies life’s important moments—such as childbirth and weddings—it’s highly recommended for those who want to express gratitude to someone special.

To My Son: A Breeze from Fathersadamasashi

Masashi Sada Cover: To My Son ~A Wind from Father~ (EG3)

This is a song Masashi Sada wrote to celebrate the birth of his son.

He hopes his child will grow up straight and true no matter what hardships he faces.

He wishes for him to become a gentle person who is hurt rather than one who hurts others.

That’s what the lyrics pray for.

He speaks to his son, predicting “He’ll probably grow up like this,” by comparing him to himself, and the clumsy love of a father really tugs at the heart.

Hello, baby.Azusa Michiyo

Hello, baby.

In 1963, Michiyo Azusa sang “Konnichiwa Akachan” (“Hello, Baby”).

Lyricist Rokubei Ei wrote the words when composer Hachidai Nakamura’s first child was born.

Introduced on the popular TV program “Yume de Aimashou” (“Let’s Meet in Our Dreams”), the song became a big hit.

The following year, a film inspired by the song was also produced.

It’s an utterly charming piece that prays for the healthy growth of a baby born as a token of two people’s love, while sweetly asking the little one to grant Mom and Dad a quiet night once in a while.
