Kimi Anniversary ~Thank You for Being Born.~sonā poketto
It’s a birthday song that expresses gratitude with the message “Thank you for being born.” Released in November 2012, it was used as the ending theme for TV Asahi’s ‘Portal ANN News & Sports’ and as the campaign song for Yomiuriland’s “Jewellumination 2012.” The track is a ballad that blends Sonar Pocket’s signature pop and R&B, featuring a warm and memorable melody.
It’s perfect for karaoke when celebrating the birthdays of a partner, family member, or friend, and is a recommended song for conveying love and appreciation to someone special.
Happy birthdayKetsumeishi
A Ketsumeishi track that celebrates the birthday person while also expressing gratitude to the mom who gave birth to them! Included on the album “Ketsuno Police 5,” this song is filled with birthday cheer from start to finish.
It’s perfect not only as a gift from a boyfriend to his girlfriend on her birthday, but also from a dad to his child—and through that, to the mom as well! It’s a birthday song that will bring happiness not just to the girlfriend celebrating her birthday, but also to her mom—truly a tune I’d especially recommend to women.
Happy Birthday SkaToukyou Sukapara Daisu Ookesutora
Turns out Skapara also released music that’s perfect for birthdays.
I just found out, but it really lifted my spirits, and I think it’s a wonderful track.
It’s a song I especially want women to hear, so I hope it gets everyone hyped on their birthday.
Happy birthday to myselfnakanekana
Kana Nakanekana has an unusual background—she even passed the training program for the Shiki Theatre Company in her teens.
Many of you might know her from the humor-packed track that went viral on TikTok, “Mote-sugite Kusa, Sasottete Mori” (literally: “So Popular It’s Grass, So Inviting It’s a Forest”).
Here is her birthday anthem that lavishly celebrates her own birth, “Happy Birthday to Myself.” It’s an upbeat song overflowing with the spirit of “If no one’s going to celebrate me, I’ll celebrate myself!!” It’s perfect as BGM for a birthday party with lots of people.
A highly recommended track that will liven up any place.
beautifulfukurouzu
Fukurowz’s “Beautiful” is a song that lets you straightforwardly and sincerely wish your friend a happy birthday.
It’s included on the 2017 album Beautiful.
It’s the perfect track to convey birthday wishes and your love with a fresh, pure heart to a friend you often trouble or inconvenience.
Vocalist Mari Uchida’s gentle voice and the pop melody also make it an ideal BGM for a birthday video.
Why not create a birthday video for your friend with this song, as a way to say thank you for everything?
