SquallMatsumoto Eiko
It’s a love song written by Masaharu Fukuyama.
It sings about the joy a woman in love feels and how she is in his room.
You can almost picture a scene from a drama, like maybe she ended up staying over at the house of the guy she likes because a heavy rain suddenly started pouring.
The End Of The WorldMakihara Noriyuki
A love song by Noriyuki Makihara, also known as Makky.
The word “rain” isn’t in the title, but it appears repeatedly in the chorus.
Although it’s called a love song, it’s not about an ordinary romance.
Once you realize what it really means, it becomes an achingly bittersweet love song.
It’s the ninth track on the 1996 album “UNDERWEAR.”
Rainy MidosujiŌyō Fifi
This song was the debut single of Fifi Ouyang (Fei Fei Ouyang), released in 1971, and it was composed by The Ventures, who sparked the electric guitar boom among Japanese youth.
Speaking of Ventures compositions, Yuko Nagisa’s “Kyoto Bojo” is also famous.
The lyrics are heartrending: on a rainy night, a woman, without even an umbrella, wanders up and down Osaka’s main street, Midosuji, from Kita to Minami, searching for her lover.
Through Fifi Ouyang’s dynamic vocals, you can sense the resolve of a woman determined to face forward and live strongly from now on.
The sound of rainMirei Touyama
On a rainy day when you just can’t forget an ex, this song, “Ame no Oto” (“Sound of Rain”), is there to keep you company.
It’s a single by singer Mirei Toyama—known for her down-to-earth love songs—released in 2022.
Remarkably, the track was written by Takaya Kawasaki, famous for “Mahou no Jutan.” A love song intertwined with rainy imagery, it wraps you in a gentle, lingering melancholy through its tender melody and Mirei’s voice.
The rain’s quiet grace draws out feelings you’d tucked away deep inside.
With that atmosphere, you may find yourself reflecting slowly and deeply.
Try listening as you layer it over your own memories.
rainHata Motohiro
Singer-songwriter Motohiro Hata, beloved for his naturally soothing voice and endearing personality, has won widespread popularity.
His cover of Senri Oe’s “Rain” is included on his 15th single, “Kotonoha,” and was used as the ending theme for the animated film The Garden of Words.
The delicate ensemble, featuring the tones of acoustic guitar, creates that slightly weighty atmosphere unique to rainy days.
It’s a sentimental number that many listeners will likely relate to for its story of a heartrending farewell.
December RainArai Yumi
Singer-songwriter Yumi Matsutoya has released numerous hit tunes over the years, from her original songs to tracks she’s written for others.
Her fourth single under the name Yumi Arai, “December’s Rain,” is also known for featuring Sugar Babe’s Tatsuro Yamashita and Taeko Onuki on backing vocals.
The lyrics evoke the sound of rain heard in a winter room, and the light yet urban arrangement conveys a sense of positivity amid the melancholy.
It’s a cool yet lyrical number that you’ll want to keep listening to on rainy days.

cold rainhaifaisetto
Even after disbanding in 1994, the group still enjoys enduring popularity—there must be plenty of longtime fans who say, “I still have all their records!” Here’s Hi-Fi Set’s poignant breakup song, “Tsumetai Ame” (“Cold Rain”).
The lyrics and music were written by Yumi Arai—Yuumin before she was married.
The dramatic arc—“two people who suddenly break up, so abruptly that they don’t even know the reason…”—has a quality that connects to the Yuumin of today.
With its beautiful falsetto in the chorus, it’s a breakup song I highly recommend to anyone who hasn’t heard it yet.
By the way, the group’s name, Hi-Fi Set, was given to them by none other than Haruomi Hosono.
