Piglet-raccoon dog-fox-catSakushi sakkyoku: Yamamoto Naozumi
A very fun play song where animal names connect in a shiritori-style chain.
Because the structure repeats the animals’ names, it’s easy to remember, and even children who have just started talking might be able to imitate and sing along.
The charm of this piece lies in the parts where you mimic animal sounds.
The humorous sound of the words may be a curious and amusing highlight.
Originally released in August 1999 as a song by Masako Saito and the Suginami Children’s Choir, it became widely loved after being performed on the NHK program “Okaasan to Issho,” and it remains popular today.
Be sure to sing it together as a parent and child, adding cute gestures to match each animal.
I can’t put it into wordsOda Kazumasa
A signature song by Kazumasa Oda that sings of gratitude beyond words.
Released in February 1982, this ballad was the 23rd single from his Off Course era, issued as a single cut from the album “over.” The instrumental interlude that appears mid-lyrics is striking, conveying feelings that transcend language.
In 1999, it was featured in a Meiji Life commercial, bringing the song to a wider audience across generations.
When Oda’s clear, translucent voice overlaps with the delicate timbre of a music box, the song becomes even more deeply moving.
It’s a gentle companion for quiet nights or moments when you want to reflect on your appreciation for someone special.
Love ShelterOwase Yoshito
A debut single released in May 1989 by Yoshito Owase, a native of Owase City in Mie Prefecture.
With lyrics by Ryuichi Satomura and music by Takashi Miki, the song portrays the feelings of someone spending a rainy night alone in a bar, unable to sever the lingering attachment to a former lover.
Even while drinking, the love that can’t be forgotten and the ache of wanting to meet but being unable to press upon the heart.
The song won the New Artist Award at the 31st Japan Record Awards.
It’s a gem of a number imbued with the universally relatable pain of parting.
koakumapinoko
A track by pinoko whose vocals and beats melt pleasantly into your ears.
It’s the title song from the EP “Little Devil EP,” released in October 2019.
The theme is the sweet yet slightly precarious push-and-pull found in the small moments of everyday life with a lover.
You can picture the intimate scenes unique to close relationships: a languid figure sipping morning coffee, or the gesture of hiding a token of affection.
As you listen, you can almost feel the warmth of that life.
Put it on during your downtime, and you’ll sense your tired heart gently unwind.
Cosmic TreatPerfume
This is one of the tracks included on the album “Nebula Romance: Part I.” The song was selected as the ending theme for the TV anime BEYBLADE X.
It’s an electropop piece that expresses the grand theme of space with dazzling synths and a buoyant beat.
The lyrics depict a weightless world, brimming with a sense of floating that lures listeners into the extraordinary.
It’s the perfect number for when you want to indulge in daydreams.
Convergent RaysUnlucky Morpheus
This track is striking for its sound where ultra-virtuosic twin guitars intertwine with a passionate violin—a quintessential symphonic metal number from Unlucky Morpheus.
The sonic landscape combined with Fuki’s piercing high-tone vocals generates an overwhelming sense of speed.
The lyrics convey a strong will and resolve to aim for a single victory, as if holy light converges to one point.
This work will be included on the album “Gate of Heaven,” slated for release in November 2025, and has been chosen as the theme song for the M.League team KADOKAWA Sakuraknights.
Listen to it when you’re striving toward your goals, and it will surely empower you.
