A roundup of songs produced by Tetsuya Komuro: introducing classic hits old and new all at once (31–40)
daily newsKahara Tomomi
This was the last single produced by Tetsuya Komuro, released in October 1998.
It was also used as the theme song for the Momo no Tennen-sui commercial, and many people may remember it along with the footage featuring the artist himself.
The song gently comforts hearts that feel a bit tired from information overload and human relationships in everyday life.
Its pleasant groove infused with Latin elements and the lightly undulating melody line are superb, making it relaxing just to listen to.
It feels like a song that conveys the message of wanting to forget the hustle and bustle of the city and reclaim peaceful moments in nature.
The track is also included on the classic album “nine cubes,” and it’s a number we recommend to anyone seeking a bit of healing in their busy daily lives.
TOO SHY SHY BOY!Mizuki Arisa
“TOO SHY SHY BOY!”, Alisa Mizuki’s biggest hit, which recorded sales of over 360,000 copies, was released in 1992.
It is also one of Tetsuya Komuro’s favorite songs, and he later released a self-cover of it.
DISCOVERYDiVA
DiVA is a new unit selected from members of office48 belonging to Japan’s hugely popular idol group AKB48.
The lyrics were written by Yasushi Akimoto, and it was released in 2014.
With a team concept of dance and vocals, the result is a sharp, high-energy track.
19 MemoriesKato Miria
Released in 2008, this is Miliyah Kato’s 12th single, a sampling track that arranges Namie Amuro’s “SWEET 19 BLUES.” Kato has said she wanted to sing it as her last song in her teens, and it was created under Tetsuya Komuro’s composition and lyrics.
Although it’s arranged and therefore differs from Amuro’s original, the track closely reflects Komuro’s recent production style.
FACES PLACESKimura Kaera
Released in 2015, this track is included on globe’s special cover album and is Kaela Kimura’s cover of globe’s ninth single, originally released in 1997.
Unlike KEIKO’s taut, high-tone vocals in the original, this version carries a gentler feel, giving the song a different impression.
It feels less like the classic Komuro sound of that era and more like a modern take on the Komuro sound.

alone in my roomSuzuki Ami
A dance number where Tetsuya Komuro’s urban production and Ami Suzuki’s crystalline vocals blend exquisitely.
Released in September 1998 as her second single, the song also became widely known as the opening theme for the audition show ASAYAN, where she was discovered.
There’s also the famous anecdote that Komuro rebuilt the track in just one day inspired by the image of the cover photo.
It’s a song that gently stays close to a delicate heart, turning loneliness into a forward-looking strength.
the meaning of peaceKouda Kumi & BoA
“the meaning of peace” was released in 2001 as a single duet by Kumi Koda and BoA.
With the Japan–Korea World Cup approaching the following year in 2002, it also conveyed an intention to foster a mood of goodwill between the two countries.
