I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

Mika Nakashima’s sixth single, released in 2003, is “Aishiteru” (“I Love You”).

It’s a love song notable for its extremely direct lyrics and ranked fourth on the Oricon singles chart.

Nakashima sings the repeatedly used phrase “aishiteru” in various vocal tones, as if expressing inner fluctuations such as firm resolve and anxious feelings.

On an anniversary with your partner, why not skip the roundabout gestures and convey your feelings straightforwardly?

Masashi Sada’s song “Kanpaku Sengen” (The Lord’s Declaration), released in 1979, is one of his signature hits and became a hugely popular staple at weddings.

In 1994, he released “Kanpaku Shikkaku” (The Lord’s Downfall) as an answer song to “Kanpaku Sengen,” depicting the sad fate of a husband who couldn’t keep up with the times.

Men over 60 may find these songs nostalgic, so why not listen to “Kanpaku Sengen” and “Kanpaku Shikkaku” and take the opportunity to express your daily gratitude to your wife?

Enka, which has long resonated in the hearts of the Japanese, often features songs about married couples.

Perhaps enka is the genre that most deeply sings of the bonds and resolve between husband and wife.

Released in 1979, this song became a long-running hit and sold over a million copies.

Just as the bond between a couple is built over a long time, maybe this song seeps deeper into the heart each time you listen to it.

I’m moved by the depth of its lyrics.

DISH// – To You, Whom I Love Just As You Are [Official Video]

To you, beloved just as you areDISH//

An encouraging song whose message—cherishing your true, authentic self—resonates deeply.

Its lyrics speak of loving even the moments when you squint your eyes and look ahead, and when tears fall, and its warm vocals that embrace everyone leave a lasting impression.

Released in September 2021, the track was featured in a commercial for Sunstar’s Ora2 me Aroma Flavor Collection toothpaste.

The lyrics were written by Takumi Kitamura, the vocalist of DISH//, and the composition by Daichi Izumi, the drummer.

It’s a song that accompanies anniversaries with a partner and precious moments spent with someone special.

Aimer “Chouchou Musubi” (produced and written by Yojiro Noda of RADWIMPS)

We’re captivated by Aimer’s voice, which tugs at the heartstrings.

Her song “Chouchou Musubi” is her 11th single, released in 2016, produced by RADWIMPS’ Yojiro Noda, who also joined on chorus.

Aimer’s vocals combined with Noda’s lyrics create something profoundly moving.

The “butterfly knot” you tie when lacing shoes is used as a metaphor for balance and bonds between people, and it’s striking how well that applies to human relationships—you can’t help but listen closely.

It’s a song that reminds us to reexamine care and balance, even with someone you’ve been with for many years.
