Released in October 2024 by Ryusei Sakura and featuring Kasane Teto, this work is a striking track where the piano’s timbre blends beautifully with expansive, soaring vocals.
The sound design is fast-paced yet weighty.
The lyrics, inspired by Osamu Dazai’s novels, depict the feelings of a protagonist grappling with nihilism and loneliness.
You can’t help but be drawn in by the swell of emotion in the chorus.
It’s a song I especially recommend to anyone struggling with self-discovery.

Characterized by a light, upbeat rhythm and melody, it captures both the excitement of a relationship just beginning with the first exchange of words and the dreams and memories woven into daily life.
Released in 1982 as Sano’s third studio album, SOMEDAY holds a significant place in Japan’s rock scene.
It’s a heartwarming number you’ll want to play when celebrating a birthday or recalling special moments with someone dear.

It’s available on YouTube and is well-received by children and their guardians.
The content incorporates characteristics of snakes found in Japan as well as cultural aspects.
Since 2021, KAHIRO Suzuki has focused on producing songs for children, and this work emerged as part of that effort.
The rich natural environment of Niigata, where it was produced, may also be reflected in the music.
It’s a recommended track for those who want to have fun learning about snakes.
Beyond the rainbowSakushi Sakkyoku: Sakata Osamu
Over the Rainbow is a song composed by Osamu Sakata, who served as NHK’s “Uta no Onii-san” (the singing big brother) for eight years starting in 1985.
It has been loved for a long time, so many parents may already know it.
It’s an uplifting song that feels like a blessing for bright days ahead.
It’s also recommended to add simple hand and body movements when performing it for children.
Not only does it work as a cheer-up song for kids, but it also makes a great, energizing gift for parents.
Beyond the rainbowSakushi/Sakkyoku: Sakata Osamu
The classic song Niji no Mukō ni, also featured on Okaasan to Issho, is another great recommendation.
This pop-style children’s song, with a hint of Showa-era kayōkyoku, should fit well for slightly older preschoolers.
Haida-san also praised it in a video site comment: “Osamu Onii-san’s songs are all warm and deeply moving.” Although the tempo is on the faster side, it might be worth taking on the challenge! There are moments in the song where children hold hands and do the “Kono yubi tomare” (everyone gather here) call, and using these well could make for a fun performance opportunity!
