Many of you may feel worn out and low on energy amid such a hectic schedule.

At times like that, I hope music can help you switch gears and lift your spirits.

Masaki Ueda was a musician who was particularly active in the Kansai region.

At the time, his performances—rich with mature charm—left a strong impression.

“Kanashii Iro Yane” is his major hit, a classic so well-known that it’s practically synonymous with his name.

There aren’t many cool middle-aged men like Masanori Sera.
