After the Festivalberii guddoman
A vocal unit from Osaka, BerryGoodman released this track in November 2024.
It’s included on their mini-album “Party Party Party.” The song portrays the complex emotions that surface when good times come to an end and the smiles shared at parting.
Warm words carried by a flowing melody really sink into your heart.
It loosens the tear ducts with the simple happiness felt in everyday life.
Moon CryingKōda Kumi
Released in 2008 as Kumi Koda’s 40th single, this song was used as the theme for the TV Asahi drama “Puzzle.” It was created from the idea of linking the ever-watching moon with the loved ones who are always there to support her.
It’s an autumn song overflowing with feelings for those dear to you.
late autumngagaga supi
A punk rock band song by Gagaga SP that I recommend for autumn is “Late Autumn.” Its lyrics are far more heartrending than you’d ever guess from the sound, expressing feelings for a lover who still can’t be forgotten.
While suffering from the inability to forget their presence, there’s also a resignation that, as long as we’re human, we’ll eventually forget.
Even so, the strength to keep moving forward feels deeply human and truly resonates.

First LoveUtada Hikaru
As it gets colder, I start to feel a touch of melancholy.
When it comes to Hikaru Utada’s signature ballads, this is the one.
It sings of a bittersweet love.
It’s surprising that Hikaru Utada wrote this song at the age of 16.
It remains one of the timeless classics still sung today.
Velvet ForestShiori Tamai
Shiori Tamai’s “Velvet no Mori” is the perfect song for anyone seeking a track that gently accompanies the heart during the lonely tail end of autumn.
Released on November 20, 2023, it’s the 11th installment of the solo project “SHIORI TAMAI 12 Colors.” Produced by Seiji Kameda, this warm ballad carries a message of conveying feelings to loved ones even when you’re apart.
Centered on themes of nostalgia for a monochrome world and an escape from everyday color, it portrays a process of self-reflection—ideal for moments when you want to step away from the bustle of the city and quietly look inward.
your handEvery Little Thing
“Kimi no Te,” released by Every Little Thing in 2005, is their 28th single and reached No.
2 on the Oricon Singles Chart.
It was used as the November opening theme for NTV’s “Ongaku Senshi MUSIC FIGHTER,” as well as in a commercial for Nivea Kao’s Atrix Moisturizing Pack Cream.
The lyrics, which sing about me drifting away from the kindness you once showed, are heartbreaking.
It’s a song I really want you to listen to during the lonely autumn season.
loadTHE toraburyū
The song “Road,” which brought THE Toraburyū to fame, was written for a fan who died in a traffic accident.
Its lyrics and melody convey the anguish of a man who lost his beloved.
Perhaps that sense of reality comes from the fact that it was based on a true story.
Whenever I see snow, what I remember are the ordinary days.
It’s those small, everyday moments that come back to you, isn’t it?
