NEVER STOP (The Gospellers) covered by GospelGänger [Tried Singing] [Hiroshima University Welcome Event]

This is a video covering a classic song by The Gospellers, Japan’s premier a cappella group.

The piece is sustained solely by voices, enhanced by the audience’s handclaps, conveying a primal human power.

Though a cover, the harmonies are fully realized and beautiful, more than enough to feel the song’s joy and vitality.

It’s the kind of track that makes you want to sway side to side while clapping along, and the more you listen, the more fun it becomes.

Macaroni Enpitsu “Ikiru wo Suru” MV

To live is, first and foremost, to learn to love yourself.

That’s the message delivered by Macaroni Enpitsu’s “Ikiru wo Suru.” Released digitally in 2020, the song was used as the opening theme for the anime Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai.

Its lyrics say that once you can like yourself, your dreams, hopes, and future come into view.

It’s a wake-up call that something seemingly simple yet difficult—liking yourself—can be the key to opening up your future.

With Maca-En’s signature energetic melody, it brightly illuminates the path you’re meant to live.

About fluidsOzawa Kenji

Ozawa Kenji – Ryudoutai Ni Tsuite (Lyric Video)

Released in 2017.

Kenji Ozawa’s 20th single.

A song that makes you reflect on the “what ifs” of life.

What would my “now” look like if I had made a different choice back then? Would I love my current family and myself? It’s a masterpiece that invites deep contemplation.

It teaches us that life is made up of the “good” choices we make at each moment.

The clear, catchy guitar-band sound paired with light, breezy horns and strings makes for a thoroughly pleasant track.

Ah, that’s good.Hana＊Hana

Ah, that’s great, Hanahana.

When you listen to this song that sings, “I’m glad you’re here,” you may find the importance of living and a reason to keep going.

With a gentle, soothing female vocal that sinks in, it’s a track that lets you feel just how precious encounters between people are.

someone else's child

A song by Hiroko Taniyama, famous for works like “The Song of the Pitch-Dark Forest.” The beginning can feel somewhat wistful and sad, but the ending is deeply moving.

It’s a recommended song for those who dislike the part of themselves that envies others for having what they themselves cannot obtain.

Even if you find yourself feeling envious, this song may still stir your heart and move you deeply.

Song of Shyness ~I’d be happy if you could relate~Abe Mao

A Song for the Shy — It’s about how I’d be happy if you could relate

Rather than the meaning of life, it’s a song that shows, through examples, what it means to “live.” Even if you think you’ll manage on your own in your heart, you can’t lie about the feeling that, in the end, you’re waiting for someone.

Don’t try to do it all alone.

You are not alone.

WANIMA – Together (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

This is a WANIMA song that has continued to be loved as an anthem for life.

Its uplifting message and energetic sound blend beautifully, powerfully moving everyone who listens.

While facing painful experiences from the past and uncertainties about the future, the lyrics are filled with the courage and hope to keep looking forward and moving on, resonating with many hearts.

Released in August 2016, this meaningful track also carries the band’s feelings for their hometown of Kumamoto, which was struck by an earthquake.

I wholeheartedly recommend it to those who are trying to move forward despite setbacks and anxieties, and to anyone who wants to express gratitude to someone important.
