It’s a track by Vocaloid producer Dorosu Heiya, released in July 2017.

The song portrays a stifling sense of being worn down by invisible walls, and the loneliness of a soul that still strives to move forward somewhere.

Airi Kizaki’s vocals are heartfelt and perfectly match the lyrical worldview.

It’s an ideal listen for nights when you want to quietly immerse yourself in the world of music.

Over a sprightly beat, the faintly wistful timbre of the synths rings out—classic Perfume at their best.

Gazing at the moon alone, lost in thought—it’s the perfect companion for a sentimental night.

STARGLOW is a dance and vocal group born from the BMSG audition led by CEO SKY-HI.

This track, released in September 2025, marks their memorable pre-debut song.

Over a propulsive, high-energy sound, emotionally charged melodies and powerful rap unfold dynamically.

The lyrics—depicting the resolve to chase one’s dreams in the face of adversity—are striking as well.

The message aligns with the meaning of the group’s name: “Those who chase unreachable stars become the ones who shine.” It’s an encouraging tailwind for anyone taking on a challenge.

Succubus ~ The NightmareBUCK-TICK

This track appears near the end of BUCK-TICK’s standout concept album “Juusankai wa Gekkou,” released in April 2005.

It conjures a nightmare-like scene in which a wandering soul in the afterlife joins the procession of a hyakki-yagyō.

The dramatic development woven by the heavy band sound and ethereal sonics pulls the listener into a darkly beautiful realm.

A centerpiece of the band’s gothic live staging, it’s the perfect song for immersing yourself in a decadent, beautiful worldview.

His love song “Moonlight” is a lyrical ballad that conjures scenes of thinking about someone dear on a quiet night.

The soft tones of the acoustic guitar and the layered vocals create a spatial ensemble that leaves a strong impression.

Looking at the lyrics, the message unfolds that even amid loneliness and silence, if you close your eyes, the smile of “you” that comes to mind is a light that illuminates the darkness.

It’s a message that resonates in the heart—that even when we’re apart, our hearts remain connected.
