cloverMeg Rock
If you’re an anime fan from the generation that’s attached to 2000s anime, this is bound to make your heart swell.
This is the second solo single released by Megumi Hinata, a.k.a.
meg rock, in 2005, and it was used as the opening theme for the TV anime SoltyRei, which aired the same year.
It’s one of the standout anison classics of the 2000s, with an exceptionally catchy melody, lyrics that showcase a unique feel for language, and meg rock’s charming vocals at their best.
Personally, I’d also love for people to pay attention to the band ensemble, which clearly shows influences from UK rock.
The guitar solo that flows in, overlapping with the final chorus, is super cool, and the Western pop sensibilities you can feel throughout are also evident in melodie cute (melocure), her legendary unit with the late Ritsuko Okazaki.
If this song is how you came to know her, be sure to check out her 2006 single incl.
as well!
CrazyMeteor
Meteor is a trio I’d recommend even to those who usually listen to Western music.
When their debut single Crazy was released, its high production quality and powerful vocals sparked buzz among R&B fans and industry professionals alike.
It’s a passionate love song that feels like it could melt you.
The slow-tempo groove is seriously cool, too.
Even though they don’t show their faces, the rich, sexy vocals deliver authentic Western-style R&B and instantly elevate the mood.
Mad BeastMisumi
A decadent world that proceeds steadily at a relaxed pace.
This work by Misumi, also known as the creator of “The Anti-Gravity City” and “The Last Supper,” was released in 2019.
The illustration used in the PV is scary in itself, and the sound, melody, and development are eerie as well.
Still, there must be many people who love this atmosphere.
From the philosophical lyrics, you can sense an emotion akin to resignation, along with a strong will that tries to look forward even while carrying it.
Suite ‘Pictures at an Exhibition’ No. 1 ‘Promenade’Modest Mussorgsky
The classical masterpiece Pictures at an Exhibition, widely beloved and featured in music textbooks, TV programs, and commercials, may be familiar to many as an orchestral work, but it was originally composed as a piano suite by the Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky.
Mourning the death of his friend, the Russian painter Viktor Hartmann, Mussorgsky depicted his experience visiting an exhibition of Hartmann’s works in this piece.
Among its movements, Promenade—a brilliant and striking opening piece—stands out.
A masterpiece themed around an art exhibition, it’s a work perfectly suited to the artistic spirit of autumn.
Let’s hide in the car and kiss.Mr.Children
A kiss song that gives you the same flutter as a secret kiss is Mr.Children’s “Kurumano Naka de Kakurete Kiss Shiyou” (“Let’s Hide in the Car and Kiss”).
It’s included on their 1992 album “Kind of Love.” The song was inspired by the album cover of the British band Fairground Attraction, which shows a couple kissing in a car.
Within its gentle, mellow melody, it captures the thrill of a kiss—and the excitement of not being seen by anyone.
Crazy DanceMr.FanTastiC
Formed in 2018 by four members—Megatera Zero, Tsukkun, Nanahoshi Orchestra, and Fujan—they dropped a street album within a few months.
Rapidly rising to prominence, they secured a major-label deal the following year and released START DASH TURBO and Zessou back to back, successfully completing their first nationwide one-man tour.
They are a next-generation band that fuses technically fast-paced rock with UK-flavored dance music.
Keep an eye on them as a potential whirlwind in Japan’s rock scene.
Whale SongMrs. GREEN APPLE
A heartwarming song by Mrs.
GREEN APPLE where grand strings blend with emotional vocals to comfort loneliness.
Included on the album “Mrs.
GREEN APPLE,” released in January 2017, this piece portrays people living with loneliness through the metaphor of whales.
Its gently enveloping melody and lyrics that speak to solitary souls stand out, softly supporting those who feel they’re losing their sense of self.
When you’re on the verge of losing confidence or feeling uncertain about the road ahead, it will surely become a source of strength.
