“Ashita e” (To Tomorrow) is a song written and composed by the members of Little Glee Monster themselves, carrying a message that looks toward the future.
When starting a new chapter in life or a new school term, everyone feels anxiety alongside their hopes.
This song stays close to that anxiety and encourages you, telling you that you can move forward toward tomorrow.
Among those beginning a new life, many have to be apart from family and friends and do their best on their own.
At such times, please give it a listen—it will surely support you!

This isn’t the kind of song that pushes you forward from behind, but rather one that gently and softly lights the way ahead.
Ayaka’s “Nijiiro,” released in 2014 and used as the theme song for the NHK morning drama Hanako to Anne, is widely known across generations.
There will surely be sad and difficult times ahead.
Even so, this heartwarming anthem tenderly overwrites those negative feelings with positive words, cheering you on.

A New WorldASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION
There are mornings when you just feel like, “Ugh, I don’t want to leave the house…” Right? On days like that, I recommend “A New World.” The lively, forward-driving guitar riff in the intro is guaranteed to make you think, “I’ve gotta give it my all too!” The lyrics carry a message like, “Who cares what others think? Dive into the new world only you can create,” blowing away any hazy, stuck feelings.
Goto’s vocals, which almost sound nonchalantly cool, will surely give you strength! By the way, Goto cites Oasis’s “Live Forever” as an influential track.
If you’re curious, give that one a listen too!

One track included on the best-of album “Where’s My History?” by the rock band [Alexandros], known for their classic song “Wataridori,” is “Kaze ni Natte.” Many people graduate, move on to higher education in spring, and start a new chapter in life.
Among them, some may not be satisfied with their lives so far and deliberately choose a thorny path.
This song is perfect for those people! With lyrics that ask, “Is it okay to be who I am now? Am I proud of myself?” it’s a song I’d love anyone setting out to find a new self this spring to listen to.

Wanwuka, a singer-songwriter also known for providing songs like “Yowanehaki,” released “Susume! Socchida!” in 2022, which was featured in the au Santaro series commercials.
It’s an encouraging song with a straightforward rock sound.
The conversational vocal style gives you a gentle push forward.
Highly recommended for those who like crisp, refreshing rock.
The repeated chorus will cheer you on again and again.
It’s a track that will make you look forward to spring and meeting new friends and colleagues.
