[Stars, Fireflies, and More] A Compilation of Songs Whose Titles Start with “Ho” (311–320)

Hollow Sleepnuyuri

“Hollow Sleep” is a song by the Vocaloid producer Nuyuri, who is also known as the arranger of ZUTOMAYO’s “Byoushin wo Kamu” (Biting the Second Hand).

The video was released on Nico Nico Douga and YouTube in 2020.

It’s a cool track with stylish chord voicings and a tight groove, but the chorus is extremely high.

The verses and pre-chorus aren’t that high, yet the moment the chorus comes in, the range shoots up dramatically.

That contrast is striking and gives the song an addictive quality that makes you want to listen again.

Harumaki Gohan is a Vocaloid producer who’s also active as an illustrator.

His music videos, which feature set characters and stories, are also very popular.

Among his tracks, the one I especially recommend is “There Were No Fireflies,” produced in 2022.

It’s crafted as a band sound with beautiful, resonant synth tones.

The lyrics, overflowing with bittersweet, fragile feelings, will touch your heart.

You’ll swoon at Hatsune Miku’s soulful delivery in the most moving moments.

This is a perfect number for anyone looking for a heartwarming Vocaloid song.

Hitoshizuku × Yama△ is a Vocaloid producer duo known for songs featuring Kagamine Rin and Len.

Their 2015 piece “Hoshiori Uta” is a poignant song modeled after the story of Orihime and Hikoboshi.

It boasts a grand, beautiful sound, and her high-tone vocals are deeply moving.

The story-like lyrics unfold dramatically and are enough to bring you to tears.

You’ll experience a rich narrative that feels far deeper than its sub-four-minute runtime.

If you’re confident in your clear, soaring high notes, be sure to give it a try.

If you’re craving feel-good choral work, look no further! The song “Hoshizora no Melody” by PolyphonicBranch (aka Porifo) was released in 2022.

It was written specifically for the unit Wonderlands×Showtime, which appears in the mobile game “Project SEKAI COLORFUL STAGE! feat.

Hatsune Miku.” Its hip-hop-flavored A-melody really stands out, offering a sharp contrast to the catchy, warm chorus.

If you’re searching for a song everyone can sing together with friends, give it a try!

To tell the truth,masakimochi

"A Song I Want You to Listen to When Parenting Feels Hard" — The Truth Is,
To tell the truth,masakimochi

A song about parenting from newborn days through the rebellious phase, “Honto wa ne” (“To Tell the Truth”), was created by music creator Masakimochi, who focuses on songs about family.

It’s said to be based on the experiences of someone named Myu, and, you know, families often can’t quite say what they truly feel to each other.

This song captures that feeling so well that it really resonates.

The MV, with its simple, charming illustrations, adds a lovely touch.

It’s a track I hope you’ll listen to when you’re feeling emotionally cornered.

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.
