Eulogy to SentimentPEDRO
PEDRO is the solo project name of Ayuni D, a member of the idol group BiSH.
“Kanshou Ouka” is included on the 2020 EP Shoudou Ningen Club.
It’s an easy-to-get-into guitar rock track built around a four-on-the-floor rhythm, giving it a very approachable feel.
It’s the kind of classic, straight-down-the-line sound that makes you want to say, “This is the real deal!” The lyrics depict someone troubled by the smallness of their own existence, yet determined to live life to the fullest.
Perfect for when you want to blow away your irritation.
to youMONGOL800
It’s MONGOL800’s extremely famous signature song, “Anata ni.” It’s a staple at concerts and festivals, where the whole venue breaks into a sing-along.
Many of MONGOL800’s songs are gentle and touching, and this one is no exception—you’ll feel like you can be kinder to yourself and to others when you listen.
By the time the song ends, you’ll want to show kindness to someone, too.
down timerRetobea
“Downtimer” is the second digital single released in 2023 by Retobear, a project from the popular Vocaloid producer Kairiki Bear.
It was selected as the opening theme for the TV anime REVENGER.
The lyrics, which declare that “even if you don’t know what’s right, you have no choice but to move forward,” convey a sense of desperate resolve and strength.
The intricately played sixteenth-note piano in the intro and the synth sounds throughout the track create a thrilling sense of speed, making it refreshingly exhilarating to listen to.

In 2020, the rock band [Alexandros] reached a turning point when drummer Akinori Shomura gracefully stepped down.
Their song features a guitar riff in the intro that sticks in your ear after just one listen—despite using only four notes, it’s catchy and perfectly matches the image of its title, “Wataridori,” making it a standout phrase that truly defines the track.
The driving drum rhythm and high-register vocals deliver a refreshing feel that helps you forget daily stress, and it’s the kind of song that, if you listen to it before heading out, lets you start the day with a bright, invigorated mood.

stress-freemiwa
Irresistible from the title alone, miwa’s “Stress-Free.” Released as a single in 2015, this song was also the theme for the drama “Prime Minister (Minion).” Have you ever found that the boyfriend you loved and chose to be with somehow became the source of your stress? The idea that a relationship continues as long as you keep putting up with things is nonsense—this song makes you realize that.
For anyone staying in a relationship while enduring and bottling up stress, it’s a wake-up call.
I’ll end up fighting.Gesu no Kiwami Otome.
It’s a thrilling track from Gesu no Kiwami Otome that gives you a push to face everyday frustrations and challenges head-on.
Released in January 2018 as a single and featured in a commercial for the mobile game Clash Royale, it’s marked by an addictive hook and a driving pace that pull listeners straight into the game’s world.
As Enon Kawatani put it, he felt “played by the game,” and the song brilliantly captures the thrill and rush of total immersion.
Arriving as their first single in about two years and three months, it further accelerated the band’s momentum.
When you feel like you’re about to explode from work or relationship stress, this track will leave you feeling refreshed—perfect for a quick mood reset.
MiracleGReeeeN
It’s GReeeeN’s 7th single and the theme song for the drama ROOKIES.
The melody is catchy, and the clear, powerful vocals can be refreshing to listen to when you’re feeling irritated.
Also, a film titled “Kiseki: Sobito of That Day,” which focuses on the birth of “Kiseki,” was released on January 28, 2017.
I think it’s a recommended movie for GReeeeN fans.
