Matsuken Samba IIMiyagawa Akira
Akira Miyagawa, who calls himself a “stage musician,” works across a wide range from classical to anime music.
Composed and arranged by Miyagawa, Ken Matsudaira’s 2004 smash hit “Matsuken Samba II” is a tune everyone can hum.
He also made a strong impression by appearing on NHK music programs himself, sharing the allure of music with children.
In 1996, he received the ABC International Music Award for his work with the Osaka Philharmonic.
Guided by his belief that “a concert is a show,” Miyagawa commands the stage as conductor, pianist, and commentator—like musical magic! He may be the perfect conductor for anyone seeking music they can truly enjoy, regardless of genre.
MY LONELY TOWNB’z
After its release in October 2009, B’z’s 47th single debuted at No.
1 on the Oricon charts, achieving the remarkable feat of 43 consecutive No.
1 singles.
It’s characterized by a bold arrangement that starts with a powerful guitar-and-drum intro and inserts a reggae-style rhythm during the interlude.
The song, which sings of urban loneliness and the wonder of someday meeting someone, was produced as the lead single for the album MAGIC.
The music video and cover art were shot on Gunkanjima (Hashima Island) in Nagasaki Prefecture, where landing had been permitted again for the first time in 35 years.
The ruins of the uninhabited island create a stunning visual beauty that mirrors the lyrical world.
It’s an emotional rock track you’ll want to listen to on lonely nights or when standing at a crossroads in life.
My Girlarashi
Released in November 2009, this song was used as the theme for the TV Asahi drama “My Girl,” starring Masaki Aiba.
Its warm, string-rich sound gently embraces both the regret of unspoken feelings and the resolve to keep believing in the future.
In the music video, the five members are portrayed as brothers, depicting family bonds and the determination to move forward while carrying their past.
The single sold approximately 432,000 copies in its first week, debuting at No.
1 on the Oricon weekly chart.
It’s a highly recommended track for moments when you want to reconnect with the bonds you share with family or loved ones, or when you need a gentle push forward.
The Christmas Card That Vanished into the CityReimi
A song by Reimy included on the 1989 concept album “MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU.” In contrast to the glittering Christmas scenes, it unfolds a poignant world tinged with loneliness and the blues.
Written and composed by Reimy herself, the track takes on a deep, over-five-minute form through Mitsuo Hagita’s arrangement.
You can picture the protagonist, thinking about a Christmas card from an ex and feeling alone amid the bustle of the city.
It’s a grown-up Christmas ballad whose warm, rich vocals gently wrap the pain of heartbreak.
The album won the Planning Award at the 4th Japan Gold Disc Awards.
It’s a song you’ll want to listen to on a Christmas night spent alone, in those quiet moments when you think of someone.
Christmas Rose in MidsummerAKB48 TeamA
Recorded in 2009 as a theater performance track, this piece stands out even among AKB48 Team A’s 5th stage, “Renai Kinshi Jōrei” (No Dating).
Its paradoxical lyrics—overlaying white flowers blooming like snow onto the midsummer season—leave a striking impression, delicately tracing a wistful longing for a love that has passed.
Singing of the sting of a first kiss and the fleeting nature of love that vanishes like bubbles, its worldview carries deep lyricism despite being an idol song.
Rather than a single, it was presented as a stage number integrated with theatrical direction, and it was released on DVD in 2010.
Why not listen to it when you want to quietly reflect on a lost love or to savor memories with someone precious?
town/cityDōmoto Tsuyoshi
Tsuyoshi Domoto’s signature song “Machi.” From start to finish, even though he sings quietly, his voice keeps resonating, doesn’t it? That’s proof that it’s resonating through the body rather than just the throat—nasal resonance is very important.
The term “nasal resonance” might sound difficult, but it’s basically what I always call “humming” in my articles.
To put it simply, it’s like humming a tune through your nose.
If you love singing, don’t you often find yourself humming without thinking about it? In fact, once you learn to use your breath properly while humming, it becomes a shortcut to singing well.
The key is not to force sound out of your throat, but to use your breath to make the sound resonate in your head.
Once you get used to it, try opening your mouth and forming words while keeping the resonance in the same place.
You can listen to his music on streaming services under the name .ENDRECHERI., so be sure to check it out!
Mad PulseMADKID
Released in October 2025 as the opening theme for the anime DIGIMON BEATBREAK, this track is a rock tune bursting with MADKID’s energetic performance.
Centered on the theme of believing in yourself and keeping your rhythm, the lyrics use music and beats as metaphors to deliver a powerful message.
The aggressive arrangement, weaving together guitar sounds and rap, is incredibly cool.
When you feel like you’re losing your pace, this song might give you the strength you need.
