midsummer dayNEW!kururi
This single was released in October 2022.
Created to commemorate the Kyoto Music Expo 2022, an event hosted by Quruli, it was later included on the album “Ai no Taiyo EP.” The track is an expansive, long-form piece that carefully scoops up everyday scenes and the scent of summer.
Drummer and pianist Shun Ishiwaka took part, and the gently shifting ensemble vividly conveys the languor of hot days and the poignancy of dusk.
Please lend an ear to Quruli’s uniquely warm, tactile sound.
Maru-chan’s Shizuoka OndoNEW!Piēru Taki
It’s a lively ondō packed with the charms of Shizuoka that will make you want to start dancing.
Sung by Pierre Taki of Denki Groove, it’s included on the single “Maru-chan no Shizuoka Ondo,” released in July 2013.
With lyrics by Momoko Sakura, music by Haruomi Hosono, and arrangement by Keigo Oyamada, this piece is a fun collaboration that ties in with the anime Chibi Maruko-chan as a PR song for Shizuoka City.
The lyrics even feature Shizuoka specialty “motsu curry.” It’s perfect for when you want to relax.
Mom, please stop.NEW!Imawano Kiyoshirō
It’s a track where a heart-wrenchingly urgent message fuses with a simple yet powerful rock sound, conveying Kiyoshiro’s sharp gaze toward society.
Included on the 2005 album “GOD,” this work is a shocking piece that depicts a painful cry within the home from a child’s perspective.
Co-written by Kiyoshiro and Shinji Miyake, it’s also known for featuring Kiyoshiro himself on drums—a soulful, hidden gem.
Though not released as a single, its lyrics delve into the darker side of modern society, powerfully shaking listeners and prompting reflection.
With few words and a straightforward melody, the pitch is easy to catch, but because of the heavy theme, try singing it with clear diction—conveying the words distinctly—while feeling the rock beat and pouring emotion into the performance.
Marmalade SongNEW!Imawano Kiyoshirō
A pop song by Kiyoshiro Imawano, who radiated overwhelming charisma in Japan’s rock scene and continues to be loved even after his passing.
It’s a number where the bittersweet melancholy woven into its bright tone and the poignant emotions drawn from everyday scenes really strike the heart.
Many listeners may find themselves startled by its world, which portrays a helpless sense of loss—like searching for your trace in the sweet jar on the breakfast table.
Included as the B-side of a single released in April 1996, it was also used as the opening theme for Fuji TV’s “Mōretsu Asia Tarō.” Another intriguing point is that the lyrics are credited to the name Mako Momoi.
A fan favorite that opens the album “GOODBYE EMI,” it’s a perfect recommendation when you want to look back on the bittersweet memories of love.
Full-moon nightNEW!Imawano Kiyoshirō
This is a poignant ballad that layers the frustration of being unable to say what you want to say onto the special moment of a full-moon night.
It offers a different flavor from the usual powerful rock ’n’ roll image—Kiyoshiro Imawano’s delicate and gentle vocals truly resonate.
Written for director Naoto Takenaka’s film “119,” it was included on the album “119 Original Soundtrack,” released in January 1995.
With this film score, Kiyoshiro won the Best Music Award at the 18th Japan Academy Prize, showcasing his talents as a musician in the world of cinema as well.
It’s a song I hope those spending a quiet night without being able to convey their feelings to someone important will listen to.
Under the moonlight, take your time and lend it your ear.
Until the day we meet againNEW!yuzu
This is a Yuzu number where friends can say “See you again” with a smile.
Released as a single in October 2002, it became widely beloved as the ending theme for the TV anime Doraemon.
It’s also included on the album Sumire and is a song that gets crowds excited at live shows.
Yujin Kitagawa wrote the lyrics by weaving together words with children during a camping trip, infusing the song with unpretentious feelings.
Its positive theme—that parting is a promise for what comes next—gently gives listeners a supportive push forward.
See you tomorrow.NEW!Every Little Thing
A gentle acoustic guitar sets a comfortable mood in this 25th single.
Evolving from their early, sparkling sound toward an acoustic resonance, it’s a gem of a ballad that fully showcases Kaori Mochida’s warm vocals.
Centered on everyday greetings, it softly portrays the sense of security shared with someone dear.
Released in November 2003, the song became widely loved as the theme for the drama “Pure Love III” and in commercials for Hachimitsu Kinkan throat lozenges.
It was also performed at that year’s NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen, leaving a lasting impression on many.
Listen at the end of the day, and you’ll likely feel your taut nerves unwind into calm.
It’s a number that stays by your side when you need a quiet breath amid busy days.
