12 to 12sombr

This is a track by Somber, a New York–born artist who shot to global prominence after a viral hit on TikTok.

Many listeners may be surprised by its groovy, danceable indie rock sound that overturns their previous image of Somber’s delicate ballads.

Centered on a summer romance in the social media generation, the song dramatically portrays the all-day rush of love and the bittersweet fear that the moment may end, making your heart race just by listening.

Following the EP “In Another Life,” this track is set for release in July 2025, with Somber’s first visit to Japan confirmed for SUMMER SONIC 2025.

It’s a tune that puts you in the mood to dance your heart out at summer parties or on a drive!

An emotional track whose intensity explodes right from the intro.

This song, by the Kyoto rock band ROTTENGRAFFTY, serves as the ending theme for the anime Dragon Ball Super.

It portrays loneliness and unresolved inner conflict.

The theme centers on the helpless feeling you get while gazing out a small window, perfectly linking heated sound with sentimental emotion.

Listen to it on a contemplative night, and it will surely sink deep into your heart.

Minako Honda was an idol singer who gained popularity from the late 1980s to the early 1990s thanks to her strong vocal ability and powerful singing style.

I believe she was especially popular among people in their 60s as a leading example of an idol with outstanding singing skills.

“Marilyn in 1986” is her biggest hit.

While the track is notable for its danceable synths, the vocal line leans strongly toward kayōkyoku (traditional Japanese pop), and the range—mid1F to hiF—is not particularly wide, giving it a light, effortless feel when sung.

It’s easy to sing yet still delivers plenty of excitement, so consider adding it to your repertoire.

1942 (feat. YZERR)IO

A track where IO, who has shined as a solo artist after his work with KANDYTOWN, teams up with his close ally YZERR.

It’s a powerful hip-hop number included on the album “JUST ALBUM,” released in July 2025.

The lyrics depict nothing less than the life they’ve lived on the streets of Tokyo—embracing both success and failure and moving forward with unwavering resolve.

Listen when you want to stay true to your convictions or need courage to face adversity; it will ignite the fighting spirit within you.

A powerful rock number that vividly evokes the image of a solitary genius surgeon who never fails.

Released in November 2016 as Superfly’s 22nd single, many of you may remember it as the theme song for the hugely popular drama Doctor-X: Surgeon Michiko Daimon, Season 4.

It feels infused with an unshakable conviction, no matter what happens, and an indomitable spirit that constantly strives for the top.

If you listen to this song—about the resolve at that very moment when you’re just one step away from perfection—during a crucial time when you want to believe in yourself, it will surely give you courage!

This is a rock number with a groovy, rolling bassline that makes your body start moving just by listening.

Don’t sweat the small stuff—just enjoy the moment! That positive message comes straight from the heart through Shiho Ochi’s powerful vocals.

The track is included on Force, the acclaimed album produced in September 2012 to celebrate Superfly’s 5th anniversary.

It was also chosen as the theme song for the popular TBS talk show A-Studio.

Put it on when you’re feeling down or as a companion for a drive, and you’ll get an irresistibly bright burst of energy that blows away everyday blues!

Amateur singer-songwriter performance: 17 Years Old by Saori Minami

This is the striking debut single by Saori Minami, who burst onto the scene from Okinawa in 1971 like a comet.

The title “17-sai” (“Seventeen”), sung by her at the age of 16, is incredibly memorable, isn’t it? The scene of being alone by the seaside with someone you love, heart fluttering with a slightly grown-up kind of romance, is something many of us may have experienced.

The sweet-and-sour, slightly bittersweet feelings carried by the stylish, Western-influenced sound blend perfectly with Saori Minami’s clear, luminous voice, and even today it makes your heart tighten without you realizing it.
