C.O.S.M.O.S.

~Akizakura~ by Sandaime J Soul Brothers from EXILE TRIBE portrays a heartrending love that can never truly be fulfilled.

It was released in 2014 as the autumn installment of their four seasons series.

Set to a beautiful melody and vocals that conjure up vivid images of autumn foliage and blooming cosmos flowers, the song’s forbidden love tightens your chest with sorrow.

If you’ve put an end to a relationship that had little chance of ever working out, try singing this song and remember those bittersweet days.

If you find it difficult to sing alone, it becomes easier if you split the parts with a friend, like Ryuji Imaichi and Hiroomi Tosaka do.

This song by aiko captures that painful bravado.

Despite its up-tempo sound, it sings of the bittersweet moment when you keep getting your hopes up over the other person’s smallest gestures, only to notice their gaze is fixed on someone else.

Released in March 2008, the song reached No.

3 on the Oricon weekly chart and was later used in a Hoyu commercial.
