Masaki Makihara’s famous and popular songs

Noriyuki Makihara – An Angel Came Down to Helpless Me

The song begins with a fight, with his lover storming out.

He recalls his feelings for her, reflects on why they argued, and, with honesty, goes to bring her back.

Listening to this will help you open your heart along with the music.

Noriyuki Makihara – In This Noisy, Adorable World [Music Video]

Singer-songwriter Noriyuki Makihara, who had great success in the 1990s and 2000s.

Although he has not been active in the public eye since his arrest in 2018, he still releases songs consistently, and continues to attract steady popularity with his unchanging musical style.

Among his works, the one I particularly recommend is “Urusakute Itoshii Kono Sekai ni” (“To This Noisy, Beloved World”).

Brimming with what fans call his signature “Makihara touch,” this piece is an easy-to-sing pop song from start to finish.

The vocal range isn’t wide, so give it a try.

Noriyuki Makihara 'Firefly ~ I Will Keep on Living' PV video viewing/listening lyrics

It was the theme song for the film “KIDS” and was also used in an Aiful Home commercial.

It’s the 38th single.

The lyrics about wanting to be someone’s source of happiness are deeply moving.

It’s a song that carries a powerful message within its bittersweet tone.

I hope young people who’ve lost their way will give it a listen!

I tried singing Noriyuki Makihara’s “Playing Hooky”~♪

This song vividly conjures up the scene of a young man skipping work, absentmindedly thinking about the girlfriend he broke up with in a café.

Its straightforward lyrics and slightly wistful arrangement are an exceptionally good match.

It resonates with a heartfelt wish: I want to be loved, too.

Noriyuki Makihara - Sunao.mp4

Released in 1997, this was the 17th single.

It was used in a commercial for Astel Tokyo, and even in the 2000s the album version was featured in ads for beverages and railways.

With its gently intimate piano-and-vocal style, it’s a song that once again showcases the appeal of Noriyuki Makihara’s music, lyrics, and voice.

Go beyond.Makihara Noriyuki

Go beyond.

This is the song chosen as the theme for Kansai TV’s evening information program “Yuugata LIVE Wonder.” It’s an uplifting track like a cheer song for people who are doing their best.

The phrase “Koero” (Overcome), which is repeated many times in the chorus and is also the title of the song, is very striking.
