Flirtatious Prince;; / Takayan (Official Music Video)

Takayan, a singer-songwriter who’s active as a vocalist and YouTuber and also known as a member of STUPID GUYS.

His 47th single, “Omowase Prince;;,” makes an impact with its airy, cute sound and relentless, driving melody.

The lyrics, which depict a scene of being tossed around by someone’s suggestive behavior yet unable to stop loving them, may remind listeners of the fun and heartbreak of unrequited love.

It’s an eccentric number with a hooky melody that sticks in your ears.

Heisei Dawn GALMayumura Chiaki

Chiaki Mayumura “Heisei Dawn GAL” MV (眉村ちあき – 平成黎明GAL)

Chiaki Mayumura is a female singer-songwriter who’s gained popularity for her distinctive musical style.

Her new track, Heisei Reimei GAL, is put together with a different feel from her previous work.

In particular, the phrase leading into the chorus features a rap-like delivery, showing the breadth of her musical range.

That said, it’s by no means a gimmick track; it’s ultimately a catchy, breezy J-pop song.

How about giving it a listen as springtime driving music?

Moonlit Horizon[Alexandros]

[ALEXANDROS] – Moon-colored Horizon (MV)

[Alexandros] is one of the bands that represent the Japanese rock scene.

In July 2019, they released Tsukiiro Horizon as a digital-only single.

Since the song was also used in a commercial, many people might recognize the chorus.

The music video has a wonderfully crafted world as well, so it’s a song I highly recommend watching along with listening.

milet 'us' MUSIC VIDEO (Theme song for the Nippon TV Wednesday drama 'Gisou Furin' [Fake Affair])

It’s “us” by milet, which was the theme song for the drama “Gisou Furin” starring Anne.

It has that Western pop vibe characteristic of milet, yet the Japanese lyrics blend in naturally and slip right into your ears—an addictive track.

It’s a love song about wanting to express your feelings, and the vocals combined with the gentle melody give it a sophisticated, mature feel.
