canaryYonezu Kenshi
One song you should listen to now, when everyday life has been changed by COVID: Canary.
It’s included on singer-songwriter Kenshi Yonezu’s fifth album, STRAY SHEEP.
When I listen to this song, I can’t help but think of someone I love or someone important to me… I imagine many people haven’t been able to see the ones they love much during COVID, or have had fewer moments of closeness with their partners.
This song gently stays beside those unruly, unmanageable feelings.
It’s known as a tearjerker, so please give it a listen when you’re having a hard time.
Maiden AnatomyDECO*27
I think many high school students like Vocaloid love songs.
For you, I recommend a track by DECO*27 called “Otome Kaibou” (Maiden Dissection).
Its literary, meticulously crafted lyrics allow you to pick up various messages.
The music video is staged like a manga, and the dark aesthetic that matches the song’s tone draws you right in.
Nagisaimase
Singer-songwriter imase, whose track “NIGHT DANCER” recently became a global hit, is still fresh in our memories.
He also made waves by making his major debut just one year after starting his music career.
This song is a refreshing, danceable number inspired by 1980s city pop.
The retro synthesizer tones evoke the arrival of summer and feel so pleasant.
The lyrics feature a strong-willed woman who boldly pushes a romance forward, yet the nuanced shifts in his vocals convey her fragility too, making your heart skip a beat.
Released in May 2023, the track was also used as the theme song for the news program ABEMA Prime, so many listeners may find it familiar.
It’s a stylish song you’ll want to play on your way to school, and it’s included on his first album, Bonsai.
I loveMarushii
An upbeat love song by Marcy that captures the exhilaration of being in love.
Released in May 2024, the track drew attention when it was chosen as the theme song for ABEMA’s dating show “High-Teen Bible.” It vividly portrays the irreplaceable tenderness hidden within ordinary days spent with a lover, along with a faint anxiety that these happy days might one day come to an end.
This song, which reminds you of the preciousness of time with someone you love, will surely accompany those moments when the everyday feels special.
One million “I love you”sRake
Singer-songwriter Rake’s smash hit “1,000,000 Times ‘I Love You.’” Above all, it’s the explosive, instantly-get-up-and-run kind of chorus that makes this song so captivating.
From the very first word, it’s a full-on sweet love song, so you can switch off overthinking and just dive into its world and enjoy.
The beautiful melody and lyrics—an unbeatable combo.
Let your own overflowing feelings resonate with it to the fullest as you listen!
Callchanmina
Chanmina is a rapper who became popular mainly among high school girls.
Among her songs, a love song I recommend is Call.
The lyrics center on a girl who experiences heartbreak before even starting a relationship, and anyone who’s been through a breakup will likely relate.
It’s a very cool track, perfect for blasting to blow off some stress.
With just a kissSuda Masaki feat. Aimyon
The heartrending melody really resonates, doesn’t it? “Kiss Dake de” is a collaboration between Aimyon, a singer-songwriter popular among high school students, and Masaki Suda, an actor hugely popular with younger generations.
Because it’s sung from both male and female perspectives, it’s recommended for both male and female high schoolers.
It’s also popular for karaoke, so be sure to give it a try!
