It’s a song about love that makes you nod along without thinking.

Released as a single CD by Teichiku Records in June 2024, it features memorable lyrics that portray a bittersweet romance set in a bar.

Haven’t we all felt, “I thought I’d moved on, but I might be falling in love again”? Michigoe Yuu’s gentle vocals perfectly capture a pleasantly tipsy mood.

I think it will resonate with many as a mature love song.

Perfect for a nighttime drive or a quiet moment with a drink.

A song that sings, just as it is, about the difficulty of getting through everyday life.

It’s by Milkyway, a three-piece rock band from Osaka, and is included on their 2016 mini-album “I’m Done Becoming an Adult.” The catchy melody and straightforward guitar rock sound leave a strong impression.

The words are packed tightly with emotion and really hit home.

Many, especially younger listeners, may find it easy to relate.

A pop number brimming with a tropical vibe—perfect for when you want to escape the busyness of everyday life and the hustle and bustle of the city! Vocaloid producer Merokuru released “Ho’oponopono” in May 2024.

Its tropical, warm sound arrangement, like waves lapping on the beach, is soothing.

The vocals by Miku and Luka layered over it are incredibly gentle, too.

The title “Ho’oponopono” is a Hawaiian term for a way of thinking said to cleanse the heart.

Why not sing along with the song and calm your mind?

wandering playyukue watto

“Wandering Play” is a track released in January 2024 by the Vocaloid producer Yukue Watto.

It starts with vocals and gradually layers more sounds, building into a rich arrangement that feels great to listen to.

The singing voice uses the voice library “Nurse Robo_Type T.” The contrast between the early sections—where the lyrics are placed sparsely—and the high-energy, fast-paced sound of the chorus broadens the song’s overall sense of worldbuilding.

To tell you the truth.yoriko

Yoriko’s “Honto wa ne,” with its fragile yet strong, resolute singing voice, was released in 2002.

It’s about that helpless feeling of having always loved someone but never being able to confess it in the end.

You worry that, even after years, those feelings might never take flight and may never change.

But I don’t think you have to force yourself to forget or try to move on.

Continuing to think about one person for a long time is painful, but it will surely make you beautiful at heart.

Please cherish that precious love as much as you want.

AiNA THE END – Sail [Official Music Video]
sailAina ji Endo

Aina The End, who made waves for possessing singing ability unusual for an idol, is now active as an actress and singer-songwriter, leaving behind many classic songs.

Among her works, the one I especially recommend is Ho.

It’s one of the most technically challenging songs in her catalog.

The most difficult point of this piece is, without a doubt, the husky-voiced shouts.

While many can sing delicately, very few can intentionally deliver a raw, rough-edged performance.

If you’re confident in your vocal skills, be sure to give it a try.

Hot Beat, performed by Attack Nishimoto and Kamichii from Jeraldo as the music duo Anecky Himars on the variety show Ariyoshi no Kabe on September 6, 2023.

With laid-back lyrics perfectly matched to a catchy melody, the piece humorously captures the everyday feeling of “kind of struggling.” Trying to pick up a new hobby and failing… we’ve all been there, right? Experience this exquisitely relaxed vibe for yourself!
