Chocolate DiscoPerfume
A smash hit from Perfume produced by Yasutaka Nakata.
Alongside Sayuri Kokusho’s “Valentine Kiss,” it’s a song that livens up Valentine’s Day every year.
Surprisingly, this track wasn’t a single—it was included on the album “Fan Service (sweet).” Who could have predicted it would become this popular? Its sterile technopop sound has a light, addictive quality.
It’s performed at most of their concerts, and the chorus where the entire venue jumps in unison is truly breathtaking.
It’s a song that makes your heart flutter even when it isn’t Valentine’s Day.
Brand New DayYasuda Rei
Rei Yasuda, who was active as the singer of Genki Rockets and later began her solo career, scored a hit in 2021 with “Not the End.” “Brand New Day,” a single released in 2014, is a message song notable for its dazzling sound and a refreshing feeling like your field of vision opening up.
Its gentle, uplifting lyrics encourage new beginnings and really hit home.
It’s a positive number that pairs perfectly with the spring sunshine and fills you with excitement!
STARTING OVERLittle Glee Monster
This song’s uplifting melody and lyrics will make anyone who listens feel happy.
The positive words are so pleasant to hear.
Little Glee Monster is made up solely of strong vocalists, and their powerful singing is truly overwhelming—so easy on the ears.
I also recommend it for people pursuing their dreams or those who are parting ways with friends.
When you’re sad about being separated from friends, or when chasing your dreams feels tough, I hope you’ll listen to this song.
It will help you feel more positive.

DynamiteBTS
A smash-hit song by the seven-member South Korean group BTS, also known as Bangtan Sonyeondan—pronounced “Bangtan Sonyeondan” in Korean and often shortened to “Bangtan.” The track “Dynamite” was included on their seventh mini-album BE (Deluxe Edition), gradually gained popularity, and was later released as a digital single in 2020.
There’s something about it that makes your body naturally move to the rhythm just by listening.
If you play it in the morning, it might keep you energized all day.
Its disco-style retro melody feels familiar, and it’s no wonder so many people on TikTok and video platforms jumped in to copy the choreography!
You are in full color.Ohtaki Eiichi
Kimi wa Tennenshoku (You’re a Natural Color), a masterpiece by Eiichi Ohtaki that shines in the history of Japanese pop, instantly lifts your spirits the moment the intro starts, with its buoyant melody and colorful world.
It’s been used in many commercials, so even those who didn’t grow up with it will likely find it familiar, and for those who heard it in real time, it’s a song full of memories.
It really makes you long for summer! In 2021, the 40th anniversary year of the 1981 classic album A LONG VACATION, a music video was released.
The Niagara Sound is something we’ll always want to love without it ever fading!
SUNHoshino Gen
This is a song written in response to an offer to provide the theme for Fuji TV’s drama “Kokoro ga Pokitto ne.” We were excited every week by Sadao Abe’s spirited performance in the show, weren’t we? As its title suggests, “SUN” uses the sun as its motif; however, this sun also subtly evokes the presence of a girl, making it a very suggestive love song.
The way it entertains feels like the ultimate expression of Hoshino’s brand of pop music.
By the way, OKAMOTO’S Hama Okamoto also participated on this track as bassist and backing vocalist!
Happy BirthdayNEW!Snow Man
It gently sings about realizing once again, in everyday life, how irreplaceable a precious person is and offering them heartfelt congratulations.
The members’ warm vocals and the simple melody softly nestle close to the listener’s heart and evoke deep emotion.
This heartwarming birthday song by Snow Man was included on the standard edition of the album “Snow Labo.
S2,” released in September 2022.
As a calm and comfortable ballad, it’s perfect for a celebratory dinner spent with someone special.
It’s recommended for anyone who wants to convey feelings of gratitude that are usually too embarrassing to put into words.
Let this song help beautifully color your celebration.
