A happy song that makes you feel happy just by listening

Sparkling Samurairekishi

REKISHI / Sparkling Samurai feat. Deyonna

Many people may know it because of the collaboration with Sheena Ringo and its use as a Daihatsu commercial song.

The phrase in “Kira Kira Bushi” that makes you think, “Huh? Did I mishear that?” on first listen turns out to be correct, which makes it funny once you realize it.

With lyrics that are delightfully over-the-top and glittering—in a way that could even teach you some history—sung straight-faced and stylishly, it’s a very entertaining track that makes it hard to keep from laughing.

Let’s give it a tryWANIMA

au Santaro TV commercial: “Let’s Try It” edition (60 seconds + making-of footage)

When it comes to feel-good, high-energy songs, no one embodies it quite like WANIMA—they’re practically synonymous with the genre.

You probably heard this track often as the theme song for the mobile carrier au’s commercials.

When you’re about to start something new or take on a tough challenge, excitement comes with a fair share of anxiety.

This is a song that gives you a gentle push forward.

Released in January 2018, it’s beloved by many as one of WANIMA’s signature tracks.

With uplifting lyrics and a refreshing melody, it has a kind of magical power that warmly nudges anyone ready to take a new step.

The intro alone makes you feel it: “This is a great song.” With snappy drums and guitar, it bursts with the kind of flashy, bright energy that could be called the essence of a band sound—like it’s shooting straight up into a blue sky.

While acknowledging worries and pain, it still gives you the courage to take a step forward.

It’s a track I’d love for anyone who’s come to a standstill to hear.

No matter how many different songs I listen to, I always end up coming back to this one—it has a mysterious charm.

The title “Zenryoku Shonen” (Full-Power Boy)—those four characters seem to say it all.

It’s truly a wholehearted, wonderful song.

The extremely straightforward lyrics pierce my heart.

Because it’s filled with simple words of “I love you,” it makes me feel happy.

Precisely because it’s so straightforward, the words feel warm, and it’s a song that not only brings happiness but also brightens your mood.

It’s love.V6

This is a song I used to listen to a lot when it first came out.

It may be cliché, but it made me realize that everything really comes down to love.

I think that’s what brings us a sense of happiness.

This song reminds me that any place where love exists is a happy place.
