Hitogoto feat. Kento NakajimaHITOGOTO

The drama theme song from HITOGOTO, the music project featuring Kento Nakajima.
It was released digitally in July 2024, with a CD release scheduled for October of the same year.
Set to an urban sound, the lyrics question a modern society where people live as if everything were someone else’s problem.
While lamenting reality, they also carry a forward-looking spirit that makes you want to keep smiling.
The lyrics, which strongly reflect Nakajima’s inner world, are likely to resonate with many.
This work will speak to those who feel the loneliness of the social media era and the difficulty of self-expression.
Blending pop and hip-hop, it offers a chance to face yourself against the backdrop of the city’s bustle.
fuseHalo at yojōhan

Don’t you feel that breakup songs sung by men from a woman’s perspective often pierce your heart—they’re almost unbearably bittersweet? This song, “Fuse” by Halo at Yojohan, is included on their major-label debut album “swanflight,” released in 2018.
People often say a fuse has blown or burned out, and here it portrays a love that ends abruptly—like a connection that suddenly snaps and is over.
It’s a sad and beautiful love song, achingly wistful, and somehow it feels as if a third party is observing that love from the outside, giving it an almost detached, impersonal quality.
Garden of Light and Dream of FishHomecomings

Homecomings is a four-piece band that has gained popularity for lyrics that capture the real emotions of young people and a catchy musical style.
Formed by four members who belonged to a university folk song club, the band features many memorable, folk-influenced lyrics.
Among Homecomings’ works, the one I especially recommend is “Hikari no Niwa to Sakana no Yume” (“Garden of Light and Fish’s Dream”).
It’s crafted in a classic J-pop style, and since there are no particularly high vocal parts, it’s easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident singers.
