This is a deeply moving song by Superfly, also highly popular as a bridal song.

Speech!!ET-KING

Included on ET-KING’s fourth album “Bridal Collection!”, released on April 24, 2013.

The song is themed as a friend’s speech to a couple getting married, conveying that marriage isn’t all good times, but that the two can overcome sadness and hardships together and grasp small happiness.

The slightly unpolished vocals deliver a straightforward message in this slow-tempo, everyone-cheer-along song.

HOWEVERGLAY

GLAY’s 12th single, released on August 6, 1997.

It’s a grand, medium-tempo love ballad that speaks of feelings for a woman—someone with whom, after many detours, he will finally share a future.

I should be able to fly (in the sky).supittsu

This is Spitz’s eighth single, released in 1994.

It didn’t become a hit at the time, but in 1996 it was used as the theme song for the TV drama “Hakusen Nagashi,” skyrocketed in popularity, and ultimately sold over a million copies.

With its expansive yet delicate melody, it’s a sparkling love song as beautiful as glasswork.

Although it was a hit during the youth of the around-forty generation, it doesn’t feel dated and remains a timeless classic, making it a great recommendation as a wedding song.
