CreepHyp is a rock band led by Sekai Kan Ozaki, who is also active as a novelist.
This track was included on their album “Clinging to the Night, Melting in the Morning,” released in December 2021, and was chosen as the theme song for the film “Just Remembering.” It’s moving to think that the song came first and the movie was made from there.
The lyrics portray a protagonist who suddenly looks back on the passionate days with a former lover.
The contrast with their current life seems to overlap with autumn’s characteristic sentimentality.
With its urban sound highlighted by distinctive keyboards, this lyrical number gently keeps you company in moments alone.

Its urban sound and catchy melody leave a strong impression.
The lyrics depict growing while staying true to oneself.
If you’re looking to discover a new you, this piece might give you a push forward.
Say sleep talk while you’re asleep.Tsukino Mito
It’s an electronica pop track with a mysterious allure.
The song is included on Mito Tsukino’s mini-album “310PHz.” Lyrics and composition are by the Vocaloid producer Iyowa.
From depictions of the soul slipping out of the body to symbolic imagery that likens the digital society to animals, it vividly portrays the boundary between dreams and reality.
Recommended for winding down before sleep—you’ll surely drift off wrapped in a sense of weightless calm.
Lovers AgainEXILE
While it’s a bittersweet romantic ballad, this song is also a masterpiece that exudes mature allure.
Released in January 2007, it originated as the required piece for EXILE’s vocalist audition and was featured in au’s “LISMO!” campaign commercial.
It reached No.
2 on the Oricon chart, selling over 250,000 copies, and ranked in the top 10 of karaoke charts for three consecutive years.
The melodic composition and deeply poetic lyrics that portray two lovers draw listeners in.
This track is perfect for a night when you want to spend time leisurely by candlelight or reminisce about precious memories with someone special.
It also makes a great soundtrack for a calm nighttime drive.
Be sure to give this sophisticated, adult-tinged song a listen.
Go to tomorrowSUPER BUTTER DOG
SUPER BUTTER DOG is known as the band that once included Takashi Nagazumi, who performs as Hanaregumi, and Takafumi Ikeda, who performs as Rekishi.
Vocalist Nagazumi’s singing voice is gentle and soft, with a charm that slips right into your heart.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is “Ashita e Yuke” (“Go Toward Tomorrow”).
It was included as the B-side to their signature 2005 single “Sayonara Color,” and features a laid-back performance over which Nagazumi’s calm vocals resonate.
The lyrics are appealing in how they affirm and accept who you are, and, just as the title suggests, give you a push to “go toward tomorrow.” Even on nights when something unpleasant has happened, listening to this track might help you look to tomorrow with hope.
Heart Rainindigo la End
A heart-stirring ballad that quietly observes a bittersweet parting in love.
Its melody delicately captures subtle emotions, while the graceful sound of acoustic guitar and electric piano resonates deep within.
Released by indigo la End in February 2016, the song was featured as the TV commercial theme for the smartphone game ‘Shoumetsu Toshi’ and is also included on their second major-label album, ‘Aiiro Music.’ Told from the perspective of a woman reflecting on the end of a relationship, the lyrics leave a strong impression as they carefully express emotional shifts through the metaphor of rain.
It’s a song that stays close to your heart when you want to quietly accept the pain of heartbreak and move forward.

A masterpiece that makes you feel the very moment a new melody in dance music was born.
A mellow track that gently wraps up young people’s sense of stagnation and loneliness is layered with playful rap, healing the hearts of listeners.
Released by tofubeats at the end of 2011 and featuring Onomatopoe Daijin as a guest, the song captivates many with its pleasant sound that samples KOJI1200.
In 2022, it was chosen for Suntory’s Horoyoi chu-hi TV commercial and resurfaced in the spotlight as a mashup version with “Konya wa Boogie-Back.” It’s a track you’ll want to hear if you cherish a unique groove and a nostalgic vibe, or if you’re searching for your place in today’s society.
