Carefully curated selection of Iyowa’s recommended songs and soul-stirring masterpieces (1–10)
IMAWANOKIWAiyowa
I can’t tell if it’s salvation or ruin—the ominous sense of headlong rush lingers in my ears and won’t let go.
Released in November 2019, the sound arrangement, with the rhythm section and piano exquisitely out of sync, feels like emotions running amok.
True to the title meaning “the final hour,” the lyrics evoke a worldview that seems drawn to the brink of death, creating a striking contrast with the song’s pop tone.
Once you listen, you can’t escape—it’s the iyowa world.
I’ve been alive for 1,000 years.iyowa
You’ll find yourself unable to escape its original and beautiful soundscape.
Released in December 2020 and closing out the album “My Heritage,” this track took 5th place at VOCALOID Collection 2020 Winter and sent shockwaves through the scene.
It’s packed with highlights, from phrases that pay homage to Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition” to lyrics written from the perspective of a girl inside a picture frame.
It confronts you with the eternity of art and the fragility of human beings.
Pajamyiyowa
Haven’t you ever had a “friend that was yours alone” too? Pajamii, released in March 2022, is a pop song with a dreamy atmosphere.
You’ll be captivated by Iyowa’s signature bouncy piano sound.
The lyrics project a fear of becoming an adult, resulting in something highly relatable.
You might forget what’s precious, but you’ll grow anyway.
If you’re in your teens especially, I think it will really move you.
peach-colored keyiyowa
The sparkling tones of piano and synthesizer lift the listener’s spirits.
Written specifically for the smartphone game “Project Sekai Colorful Stage! feat.
Hatsune Miku,” it was released in April 2023 and was also included on the June 2024 album “Movies, Sunlit Spots, Graduation Ceremonies.” The lyrics, as if conversing with one’s younger self, poignantly portray the anxieties of chasing a dream and the importance of friends, striking straight at the heart.
It’s a song that gives you courage when you’re taking on a challenge.
Forgotten itemiyowa
The up-tempo, jazz-inspired sound sticks in your head.
Released by Iyowa in April 2025, this piece is a track that portrays the sparkle of an idol alongside the loneliness and sense of loss behind it.
The wistfulness that drifts within its bright tone—many listeners have likely been captivated by that contrast.
It debuted at No.
1 on Billboard JAPAN’s Niconico VOCALOID SONGS chart, achieving a remarkable feat not seen since the classic “Kyukurarin.” Be sure to give it a careful listen.
thermal anomalyiyowa
Released in October 2022, the song features Rei Adachi’s vocals resonating as if pleading with a world coming to an end.
The soundscape—an overwhelming blend of feverish delirium and unquenchable passion—is stunning.
The anxious, fast-paced beat and the piano tones somehow create an irresistibly pleasant addictiveness.
It won first place at VocaColle 2022 Autumn, and in May 2024 it was added to the game “Hatsune Miku: Colorful Stage!” (Project SEKAI).
It is also included on the album “Eiga, Hidamari, Sotsugyoushiki” (Film, Sunny Spot, Graduation Ceremony).
あだぽしゃiyowa
You’ll get hooked on the waltz rhythm interwoven with dissonance.
From the lyrics—filled with words that evoke scorched hands and death—you can feel a bittersweet yet distorted love-hate between two people who simply cannot understand each other, parting ways while still wishing for each other’s happiness.
That story merges with the wavering, unstable sound, gripping the listener’s heart and never letting go.
Released in June 2021 and later included on the album “My Heritage.” Enjoy listening while pondering its meaning.
