If we are to speak, let it be of the future…Keyakizaka46

Keyakizaka46 'If We Are to Speak, Then of the Future...'
If we are to speak, let it be of the future...Keyakizaka46

A powerful track by Keyakizaka46 that sings of delicate emotions.

Its message—urging us to speak of the future without being bound by the past—resonates deeply.

Featured on the August 2016 album “Masshiro na Mono wa Yogoshitakunaru,” this song gives you the courage to face forward, overcoming self-denial and disappointment with reality.

The contrast between Keyakizaka46’s characteristically introspective worldview and the hope-filled lyrics is striking.

It’s an encouraging anthem that gently supports those trying to take a new step or hoping to change themselves.

I think it’s a song that gives courage and hope.

The sound has a mature vibe, which might not suit someone who’s still a bit immature.

But if you listen to it while imagining the future, you start to see what’s great about the song—and you come to like it.

For the futureDo As Infinity

If you’re looking for the courage to face the future, I recommend “For the future.” It was released by Do As Infinity in 2005 and was used as the theme song for “Sports Urugusu.” Its rock-driven arrangement with ringing electric guitars and straightforward, positive lyrics will give you a boost.

Vocalist Tomiko Van’s powerful voice, with a gentle warmth at its core, is especially captivating.

Give it a listen when you want to blow away your worries and anxieties about the future.
