Hallelujahmosao.
From a breezy intro that feels like a fresh wind, this is a healing song for the heart.
Written and performed by the singer-songwriter Mosao., it’s a track from the 2022 album “Koi no Uta” and was chosen as the theme song for the drama “Piece of Cake.” This song feels like it takes the hand of someone who’s feeling lonely and leads them into the light, and just listening to it gives you energy.
It works great as your own personal fight song, and if you give it to a friend or family member who’s feeling down, they’ll surely appreciate it.
Light of Miracles ~Believing in Miracles~Dream
This is a song whose lyrics were written by EXILE’s ATSUSHI for Dream.
I believe it’s a song that only Dream—who struggled for many years without a breakthrough, yet persevered and climbed to the top—can truly sing.
If you have a dream you can’t give up or you’re working hard toward something, this will be the perfect anthem to cheer you on, so please give it a listen!
Beyond that10-FEET
How about a rock number whose words feel squeezed straight from the heart and strike you right in the chest? It’s a song by 10-FEET, a three-piece rock band from Kyoto.
The lyrics unfold as if speaking passionately to one’s inner self, and just by listening your heart starts to burn, giving you the courage to keep running with a “I’ve still got plenty left in me!!”
DoodleMrs. GREEN APPLE
Since kicking off Phase 2 in 2022, the three-piece rock band Mrs.
GREEN APPLE has released numerous buzzworthy hits.
“Doodle,” included on their fifth album ANTENNA, was chosen as the song for Kao’s ‘Merit’ commercial.
Its lyrics, which seem to affirm living life with all you’ve got, are filled with positive messages that ease worries in both work and private life.
With a brisk, summer-tinged ensemble that lifts your spirits, it’s a high-velocity rock tune brimming with a sense of speed.
LaughterOfisharu Higedan Dism
This song by the hugely popular band Official HIGE DANDism is sure to feel like a wonderful, empowering cheer song for anyone trying to take on a challenge! It’s a slow-tempo, ballad-style track brimming with their charm, paired with uplifting lyrics.
The words tell the story of a bird named Raughter who breaks out of the shell that once kept it from taking the first step and begins a new challenge.
Listening to this song will give you the courage to take that first step, just like Raughter, who faces any hardship head-on!
YELLikimonogakari
This song was composed as the set piece for the junior high division of the NHK National School Music Competition.
Ryoji Mizuno is said to have written the lyrics and music while recalling his own deeply troubled middle school years.
Because the word “goodbye” is repeated, it is often sung during graduation season and frequently ranks on graduation song lists.
It’s an encouraging song filled with warm words that gently embrace students who easily feel lonely and burdened by worries, when anxiety outweighs hope and they wonder whether what they’re doing is right and whether a bright future will come.
