To My Son: A Breeze from Fathersadamasashi

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.

The simple piano tones and her clear vocals gently embrace feelings of joy and gratitude.
Born from the desire to celebrate a birthday, the piece has continued to resonate with many since its release in February 2015.
It is included on the album “Tadaima, Okaeri,” and a rearranged version was released in 2022.

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.
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?
