A Voice That Reaches the Heart | A Deep Dive into Yuta Kakizaki’s Recommended Songs

I want someone to tell me, “The moon is beautiful, isn’t it?”NEW!Kakizaki Yūta

Yuta Kakizaki – I Want You to Tell Me “The Moon Is Beautiful”! / yuta kakizaki – I Want You to Tell Me the Moon is Beautiful!

A track that strikes the heart with its earnest longing not to simply wait for a famous love-confession phrase, but to hear it said to you.

The lyrics blend cuteness with a hint of poison, creating a world you can’t get out of your head once you’ve heard it.

Released as a single in January 2026, this work was created entirely solo by Yuta Kakizaki—from songwriting and composition to performance and mixing.

It’s a culmination of his refined home-recording style, honed through releases like the 2025 album “Etude of clair.” With driving beats fused to an emotional vocal, it’s a song you’ll surely relate to when love has you on edge at night, or in those moments when you just want to be someone’s number one.

Definitely give it a listen.

Among Yuta Kakizaki’s works, this one in particular has a mysterious addictiveness.

Its psychedelic sound and that uniquely “gross but pleasant” floating sensation stick in your head after a single listen.

The lyrics, which seem to satirize urban clamor and the overly predictable rhythm of daily life, resonate over a pop melody.

One highlight is the outro development in the latter half, where the guitar comes in.

Released as a single in September 2022, it was later included on the album “I loved you.” The anecdote that it was completed—arrangement and all—in just three days is a striking testament to Kakizaki’s impulsive creative style.

Why not give it a listen when you’re grappling with fear of change or a sense of restlessness, or on a night when you’re craving something a little unusual?

I want to become invisible.NEW!Kakizaki Yūta

Yuta Kakizaki – I Want to Be Transparent / yuta kakizaki - I Want to Be Invisible

I’d like to recommend this piece, released in November 2022, to anyone searching for a quiet, snow-like accumulation of heartache.

Its world, spun from understated words and melodies that portray self-loathing and resignation so deep you wish you could disappear, grips the listener’s chest.

The soft tone of the electric piano over a medium tempo and the key change that arrives in the latter half beautifully capture emotional tremors, while also conveying a gentleness that seems to lean close to a pained heart.

It’s a densely crafted track by Yuta Kakizaki, included on the album “I loved you,” born from a home-recording style in which he handles everything himself.

Give it a listen on a quiet night when you want to face yourself, or when you want to purify feelings you can’t put into words.

Bai Mai SaiNEW!Kakizaki Yūta

Yuta Kakizaki – By My Side / yuta kakizaki – By my side

A captivating track that fuses heartfelt lyrics—carrying the desperate plea of “I want you by my side”—with an electronic beat.

It’s a digital single from rising singer-songwriter Yuta Kakizaki, released in October 2024.

After a demo version went viral on social media, it was expanded into a full-length release.

Kakizaki, who handles every aspect of production himself, continues to impress with works that pierce the heart, such as the album “Practice of Prayer” and the single “I Just Want to Be Loved.” Its pop sensibility paired with a subtly tightening, aching melody makes it perfect for quiet nights spent alone or moments when you’re thinking of someone special.

Don’t miss this much-talked-about voice—give it a listen.

Yuta Kakizaki – Blueberry Jam / yuta kakizaki – Blueberry jam

When you think of exhilarating guitar rock, many people probably picture a full band sound, right? Even so, the work I want to recommend as a song entirely crafted by Yuta Kakizaki alone is this release from January 2025.

It’s characterized by a rapid-fire cascade of words and arrangements that stoke a sense of urgency.

It seems likely that he’s intentionally cramming in so much information that there’s barely time to breathe, in order to portray a state of psychological tension—that’s the impression I get.

His knack for riding a swirl of emotions—so intense it’s hard to breathe—on a sprightly melody is truly impressive.

Kakizaki has been prolific with releases like the album “Practice of Prayer,” but I think rock tunes like this one are perfect for those restless nights.

Please enjoy.

lapis lazuliNEW!Kakizaki Yūta

Yuta Kakizaki – Lapis Lazuli / Yuta Kakizaki – Lapis lazuli

Singer-songwriter Yuta Kakizaki, who’s gaining attention with a solo home-recording style where he handles everything himself.

Among his tracks, the one I especially want to recommend is this song from the album “Practice of Prayer,” released in April 2025.

Even within the broad realm of piano rock, there are many styles, but this piece is distinguished by a crystalline clarity—just like the gemstone in its title.

It gives the impression that he probably did everything alone, from writing and composing to performance.

The way the dense sound connects so smoothly with the earnest lyrics lets you sink into its world, which I think is one of the secrets behind Yuta Kakizaki’s captivating music.

It’s also perfect for a quiet night when you want to face music on your own.

If you’re searching for something that resonates in your heart, this is a must-hear masterpiece.

Maybe!NEW!Kakizaki Yūta

Yuta Kakizaki – Maybe!/Yuta Kakizaki – Probably!

Released in April 2025 as a track on the album “Practice of Prayer,” this work stands out among home-recording artists, who come in many styles, for the way Yuta Kakizaki single-handedly handled everything from songwriting and composition to performance and engineering.

The result is a piece that strongly reflects an individual’s inner world.

It gives the impression that he created it while deeply confronting the doubts and regrets in his own life.

The vocals, sung gently and without making definitive statements, have an intimate quality that slips naturally into the listener’s heart.

This style of singing also pairs perfectly with the alternative sound.

If you’re feeling a bit worn out by everyday life, be sure to give it a listen.
