From the northern innMiyako Harumi

Harumi Miyako / From the Northern Inn [Lyric Video]
From the northern innMiyako Harumi

This is one of Harumi Miyako’s signature songs, portraying a bittersweet woman’s love that tightens the heart in the cold of winter.

The image of the heroine, alone at an inn in the north, continuing to knit a sweater while thinking of the one she parted from, is deeply moving.

Lyricist Yū Aku is said to have depicted the act of knitting as a “ritual to bring closure to a breakup.” Even in her grief, you can feel a core strength as she tries to put her feelings in order.

Released in December 1975, it achieved the remarkable feat of winning both the Japan Record Award and the Japan Cable Radio Award the following year.

Total sales reached 1.45 million copies, and it has been covered by many singers, including Sayuri Ishikawa and Yoshimi Tendo.

As the season’s cold air sinks into your bones, why not hum it together at a New Year’s gathering?

Peanut - Q&A (Q&A) Kasane Teto
Qiu & Kagepiinata

Conflicting concepts—math problems and life’s questions, faith and dependence, frenzy and nihilism—come rushing in atop a high-speed beat.

It’s a track featuring Kasane Teto by Piinata, released in December 2025.

The tightly punched kick and snare, together with a distorted synth bass, create a sound that’s aggressive yet somehow pop-leaning and easy on the ears.

The lyrics juxtapose the sensation of chest pain without any specific diagnosis with words that label oneself as “junk,” despite having emotions.

If you’re carrying a haze that defies rational explanation, this song might hit home.

FIELD OF VIEW – Because You Were There (Music Video HD)
Because you were thereFIELD OF VIEW

This is the memorable debut single by FIELD OF VIEW, created by a stellar team of songwriters who supported Being’s golden era.

Released in May 1995, it became a major hit with total sales of about 898,000 copies.

As the theme song for the popular drama “Kagayaku Kisetsu no Naka de,” it reached living rooms across the country and beautifully aligned with the coming-of-age ensemble drama’s worldview.

The lyrics affirm that even worries and anxieties are proof of being alive, offering a warmth that gently pushes listeners forward.

Izumi Sakai’s chorus is also beautiful, and her harmony with the male lead vocal is exquisite.

You will fall in love this summer.≠ME

≠ME (Not Equal Me) / 1st Single 'You Will Fall in Love This Summer' [MV full]
You will fall in love this summer.≠ME

The idol group ≠ME produced by Rino Sashihara released their major debut single in July 2021.

This work refreshingly portrays the feelings of summer love, and a notable feature of the music video is its delicate depiction of romance between girls.

The lyrics express a protagonist who, prompted by a fortune-telling, resolves to take a step toward love.

It’s a piece where the exhilaration and bittersweetness of youth coexist.

When you realize you have feelings for someone of the same sex, this is a song that gently gives you a push forward.

Kira Kira / Mosawo. [Music Video]
sparklingmosao.

A love song that captures the sparkle of unrequited feelings.

It honestly sings about the pounding excitement of falling in love and the growing attraction to someone, wrapping the listener’s heart in warmth.

Songs that can be sung with emotion rather than technique are, I think, the easiest for people who lack confidence in their singing! If you sing it just as the lyrics say, your feelings will surely come across.

The song itself is neatly under three minutes, so it’s easy to memorize.

When you sing, aim for a light delivery rather than belting, so you can breathe well and keep it gentle.

Keeping the resonance focused in your head the whole time should fit the mood nicely.

Something like a miracleKamishiraishi Mone

This is the theme song for the animated film “Peleliu: Guernica of Paradise,” released on November 26, 2025.

It’s a song meant to be sung gently without raising your voice, conveying the preciousness of life.

Since it leans more toward lower than higher notes, you need to keep your throat well open and let the voice out comfortably.

It’s also important to lift your facial muscles or make a surprised expression—you’ll likely find your throat opens unconsciously and it becomes easier to produce sound! When singing low notes, imagine slowly releasing a ball of breath right in front of you; that way, your voice won’t sound muffled.

Because I was able to meet youImai Yūzō, Haida Shōko

@user15821878215964Original song – Hikaru Tamura – Hikaru Tamura

It’s a moving song, perfect for graduation season, that expresses gratitude for irreplaceable encounters.

Yuzo Imai and Shoko Haida, beloved performers from NHK’s “Okaasan to Issho,” handled the vocals.

Broadcast in March 2008 as the “Song of the Month,” it marked their graduation from the show and was included on albums such as “NHK Okaasan to Issho Song Collection ~ Yume no Kakera.” Written and composed by Osamu Sakata, the song delivers a heartfelt message: meeting you made me stronger.

When children sing it at their graduation ceremony, it will deeply resonate with parents and teachers who have watched them grow.

Consider including it in moments that celebrate the bonds with dear friends.
