Accompanist / Piano Instructoryuri
Accompanist pianist × piano instructor × web writer. I began piano lessons at age four and, inspired by my piano teacher, decided to pursue music. I went on to specialized music programs in high school and university, where I discovered the appeal of accompanying instrumentalists and singers. Currently, alongside teaching piano, I work mainly in my home region of Aichi as an accompanist for flute, voice, choir, and more. Through lessons, my students often introduce me to trending songs, and my hobby is trying anything on the piano—Japanese and Western pop, commercial jingles, and beyond. Since 2021, I’ve also been active as a web writer, covering music and a variety of other genres.

A Birthday Song That Moves Her Heart (51–60)

dearestFukuyama Masaharu

Masaharu Fukuyama – Beloved (Full ver.)

dearestFukuyama Masaharu

A song that portrays a heartrending love story by Masaharu Fukuyama.

Released on October 1, 2008 as the theme song for the feature film “The Devotion of Suspect X.” The unrequited pain of love and the sorrow of what’s lost are expressed over a beautiful melody.

Crafted with the film’s end credits in mind, it delicately depicts the characters’ complex emotions.

It was also used in Toshiba’s REGZA commercials, and a self-cover by Fukuyama himself was included on the album Zankyo.

Highly recommended for those who can relate to the feeling of moving forward while quietly holding on to thoughts of someone dear.

PRESENTMrs. GREEN APPLE

It’s a warm song that gently wraps feelings of love and gratitude.

Its refreshing, pop-rock foundation and lyrics that celebrate the small joys of everyday life leave a lasting impression.

The melody carries the desire to carefully wrap your feelings like a gift and send them to someone special, resonating deeply in the heart.

It’s a recommended choice for background music in a video accompanying a birthday surprise or a present for a dear friend.

What’s truly wonderful about this classic by DREAMS COME TRUE is how it casually sings about so much gratitude.

If you give a song this full of love to your wife or girlfriend, it’ll surely make her heart skip a beat at your great taste! Take the chance to share all the “thank yous” you don’t usually say along with a happy birthday message!

Janne Da Arc / I’m so Happy

I'm So HappyJanne Da Arc

The lyrics are very passionate and might feel embarrassing from a man’s perspective.

But actually, many women would be happier with that level of expression! If you convey your love clearly, even while feeling shy on a special birthday, she’ll surely end up liking you even more.

EXILE SHOKICHI / I Was Born to Meet You (from 2nd Album “1114”)

I was born to meet you.EXILE SHOKICHI

A romantic gift song by SHOKICHI of EXILE.

It opens with gentle vocals over a piano intro, then percussion and bass join in as if nestling close, before returning to a piano interlude.

You could only call it a classic, right? The harmonica he happened to have during the recording added an improvised tone that serves as a tender accent.

It’s a pop ballad you’ll want to give to someone special.

It’s a song I’d love to sing at karaoke.

It would be amazing if we could harmonize well.

I think the gentle melody and warm lyrics really touch the heart.

Sometimes we forget something so important—that just being by the side of someone you love, and simply being together, is happiness.

This song snaps me back to that realization.
