Halloween NightAKB48

This is a Halloween-themed song by AKB48 that fully incorporates disco sounds from the 1970s and 1980s.

Released in August 2015 as their 41st major single, it was used as the theme song for Fuji TV’s “Odaiba Yume Tairiku” and in Asahi Soft Drinks’ “WONDA” commercials.

The four-on-the-floor rhythm and mirror-ball-like synths amplify the message of making the most of that one special night of the year.

The simple choreography by Papaya Suzuki, which anyone can dance to, is another highlight.

It’s the perfect track for dressing up and partying with friends, getting everyone hyped at karaoke, or fully enjoying an autumn night.

This song, which expresses the loneliness and poignancy of autumn through a rock sound, was included in the compilation album “Figureheads Compilation” in July 2007 and later selected for the best-of album “Ellegarden Best (1999–2008),” making it a popular track.

While its energetic sound and exhilarating, fast-paced melodies are quintessential ELLEGARDEN, a closer look at the English lyrics reveals a delicate portrayal of the solitude and sense of loss that the autumn season brings.

It’s a curious song that vividly revives memories of school days spent with friends when you listen to it.

Give it a spin on a long autumn night when you want to immerse yourself in music alone.

Ms. SeptemberRADWIMPS

This song is included on RADWIMPS’s major-label debut album, “RADWIMPS 3 – The one we forgot to bring to the desert island –,” released in 2006.

The date indicated in the title, September 3, is the anniversary of their first-ever one-man live show.

The lyrics capture the bittersweet feelings that arise in the quiet fade-out of summer as it gives way to autumn, along with the resolve to take a step forward from there.

Yojiro Noda’s poetic and abstract choice of words evokes each listener’s own memories and emotions.

The gentle melancholy woven into the simple band sound is soothing, making it a track you’ll want to sink into on a long autumn night.

Hum it along with memories of your school days, and the feelings from back then will come rushing back.

Carried by a beautiful, slightly ephemeral guitar tone, it quietly speaks of longing for someone unforgettable.

With the scent of fragrant olive stirring old memories, the lyrics—steeped in the ache of time that can never return—perfectly accompany the uniquely melancholic mood of autumn.

It was included on the album Time Lapse, released in September 2018.

An emotional yet gentle track, ideal for listening to at night when you’re spending time alone.
