No matter how hard you try every day or how positive you are, there are times when an accident or setback brings you down.
At times like that, why not let the power of music ease your mind, even just a little?
Rather than songs that hit you with a jolt of courage, I’ve picked ones that gently stay by your side and seep into your heart.

Soothing songs: Heart-calming tracks to listen to when you're tired or feeling down (31–40)
Best FriendKiroro
A duo of artists from Okinawa.
Their melodies are sure to resonate with many and move them to tears.
This track is one of their signature songs and is a perfect recommendation to send to a friend who’s setting off on a new journey.
Together foreverKobukuro
This song has sometimes become a topic of conversation, almost like a meme, but it’s still a wonderful piece.
The repeated “together ~” phrase in the chorus is especially striking, and it paints a gentle picture of taking each step side by side with a partner.
The harmonies are another point you can’t overlook.
KizunaORANGE RANGE
This is a song themed around the friendship and bonds formed by a band group.
Because the group’s vocals feature a variety of timbres, you’ll be captivated by the beautiful music woven by each distinctive singer.
It’s a wonderful song that makes you want to cherish the bonds you have with your friends.
Antenna Last10-FEET
10-FEET is a three-piece band that can handle everything from intense rock to mellow tracks, as well as mixed-genre numbers.
If I had to recommend one of their songs, it would be Antenna Last.
It’s a really great track.
Words aren’t necessary—just give it a listen.
Like the shining moonSuperfly
Among Superfly’s songs, this is a gem of a love ballad.
Centered on the theme of “love,” its lyrics are truly wonderful, expressing the joy and happiness of discovering how to love someone in a straightforward way.
It’s a standout ballad that showcases Ochi’s powerful, soaring, and commanding vocals to the fullest.

Ryukyu Love SongMONGOL800
I think this song shows just how much this band loves their home, Okinawa.
Some artists cherish folk and traditional music, while others are bands that convey the spirit of Okinawa through rock.
This rich variety is one of Okinawa’s strengths.
C’est la vie: A Woman Is Busy With LoveToki Asako
The chic, urban sound and gentle vocals are wonderful.
This is a track by Asako Toki, who masterfully sings jazz and city pop.
It was included on her album “Bittersweet,” released in July 2015, and was used as the opening theme for the drama “There Are 101 Reasons Why We Can’t Get Proposed To” Season 2.
Set to a glittering dance tune, the lyrics reveal the honest feelings of days busy with love.
Even while bewildered by a romance that isn’t going well, in the end they break into a lighthearted dance.
The lyrics blend a refreshing decisiveness with a touch of wistfulness, quietly staying close to a striving heart.
That exquisite bittersweetness really hits home.
It’s a healing song I’d love you to listen to on tired nights, when you want to pamper yourself.
