Ringo Sheena – Demo Tapes 02 – 05. A Loser to the Moon

This is a track from the album “Shōso Strip.” Her songs have a distinctive worldview, and the lyrics of this one are uniquely striking as well.

I can relate to the part where she sings about her wishes for herself.

The other tracks on this album are excellent too, so be sure to give them a listen.

We Still Don't Know the Name of the Flower We Saw That Day. ED [secret base ~What You Gave Me~ (10 years after Ver.)]

ZONE’s classic song “Secret Base ~Kimi ga Kureta Mono~” once served as the theme for the drama Kids War 3 and became a major topic of conversation.

Ten years after ZONE released the original, a version sung by the anime’s voice cast was chosen as the ending theme for Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day.

The lyrics depict a farewell at summer’s end.

The poignant words set to a gentle, ballad-like melody beautifully complemented the stories of both the drama and the anime.

The nostalgic lyrics are woven from lovely phrases that resonate deeply with the heart.

Aina the End – Takaramono [Official Music Video] (Theme song for TBS Sunday Theater 'Goodbye Maestro: My Father and My Appassionato')

A song characterized by the warm tones and heartfelt lyrics woven by Aina the End.

Released in February 2024 as the theme song for TBS’s Sunday drama “Sayonara Maestro: My Father and My Passion,” Aina’s distinctive husky voice gently wraps feelings of gratitude, farewell, and stepping into the future.

It strikingly captures the bond with loved ones and the complex emotions that arise when standing at life’s crossroads.

With words that stay close to the heart and a warm melody, it will quietly give you a push when you face a turning point in life or experience a farewell with someone dear.

Thread – Miyuki Nakajima (Full)

Miyuki Nakajima’s Ito squeezes encounters with people and their meaning into simple lyrics.

It’s also a classic song often sent at weddings.

It likens us to slender threads, singing of how they weave together vertically and horizontally.

I keep wondering how it can feel so deep while being so simple.

It’s a profoundly moving song I’d like to make an anthem for a long life.

Aimyon – Marigold [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO]

Aimyon’s “Marigold” has an unforgettable, striking chorus.

It’s a song with a subtly nostalgic melody, drawn in by Aimyon’s calm voice.

Packed with words that feel like summer season terms, it’s a refreshing summer love song.

You can almost see marigold flowers swaying in the wind.

These are lyrics you’ll want to savor carefully on your own.

As many times as you likeDREAMS COME TRUE

DREAMS COME TRUE – Again and Again (from DWL 2015 Live Ver.)

It’s a quintessential DREAMES COME TRUE anthem and an ultimate cheer-up song.

The lyrics are truly wonderful and make you feel, “I might give up many times, but even if it takes time, I’ll definitely face forward and stand up again!” Clinging on isn’t uncool, is it?
