This song likens an irreplaceable presence—someone who supports you no matter what—to a “goddess,” delivering a message of gratitude like a cheering anthem.

The earnest feeling that a loved one’s smile gives you strength comes straight to the heart through their warm, powerful vocals.

This is a work by the rock band Polkadot Stingray, known for their sharp guitar and exhilarating, fast-paced rhythms.

The raw emotions of the ordinary-protagonist narrator—admiration intertwined with jealousy and impatience—are sung over a serious, speedy sound.

The song was written as the theme for the drama “Left-Handed Ellen” and released in November 2019, marking the second anniversary of the band’s major-label debut.

It is also included on the mini-album “Shinseiki” (New Century).

It’s a work that feels very much like Yosui Inoue—gentle and warm-eyed.

Even while handling a grand theme, it’s striking how it’s written in intimate language, as if speaking to someone close.

It may be a hymn to the precious things found in everyday life and in unassuming scenes on a journey—those irreplaceable presences.

This piece was written as the opening theme for NHK’s travel program “Buratamori,” and was later included on the cover album “UNITED COVER 2.” If you listen at the start of a trip, it will surely make you anticipate wonderful encounters.

A rising star born in 2001 from Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Koki Yamane is pursuing his own form of expression as a solo singer rooted in J-POP.

His biggest draw is his richly expressive, dance-honed vocals riding on catchy melodies.

He’s rapidly gaining attention—partly due to buzz around the recruitment of new members for timelesz.

He’s also set for his first solo show in Tokyo in October 2025, proving his momentum is real.

He’s the perfect artist for those—especially Gen Z—who want to witness the birth of a new star.

Sung by singer-songwriter Ai Tomioka, this is a love ballad filled with hope for the future.

It expresses a heartfelt wish to stay with the person by your side now, even if the future is uncertain.

Released in November 2024, the song was reportedly created in response to fans asking for “a warm song.” Perhaps because of that background, the entire track feels wrapped in kindness.

Ai Tomioka’s clear, translucent voice gently stays close to hearts swaying between anxiety and expectation.
