Rainy Amusement ParkSasuke
This is a ballad that poignantly depicts memories of a couple’s date at an amusement park and their bittersweet parting.
It weaves together contrasting scenes: a past moment of riding a carousel in the rain, and the present, where the narrator catches sight of a former lover with shorter hair, looking happy.
The lingering attachment the protagonist still feels, along with a quiet resolve to face forward and live on, gently presses on the heart.
A warm sound centered on acoustic guitar and piano highlights the story-rich lyrics.
Included on Sasuke’s album “Smile,” the piece was released in October 2004, reached No.
3 on the Oricon charts, sold over 450,000 copies, and was certified Platinum.
It’s a song you’ll want to listen to on a rainy day, especially when you’re trying to heal the pain of a broken heart.
September RainŌta Hiromi
Hiromi Ohta was an idol who was a bit different from the rest, singing while playing the piano.
Released in 1977, this song was her ninth single.
You can picture a woman in the cold September rain, biting her lip as her love seems to be coming to an end…
Don’t underestimate the rain.KIRINJI
Here’s one track from Kirinji’s debut album, which is pop no matter where you cut it.
What’s happening, in what situation, and what will happen next? I have no idea—but love is often like that, isn’t it? Sometimes you don’t even realize you’re being led around…
Rainy SundayMISIA
The rainy heartbreak song included on MISIA’s second album, LOVE IS THE MESSAGE, released in 2000, is Ame no Nichiyōbi (Rainy Sunday).
The album topped the Oricon charts and won the Best Album Award at the 42nd Japan Record Awards—a true classic.
It’s a quintessential MISIA track: mellow yet driven by a solid beat, so groovy it makes your hips want to move.
The lyrics, which sing about how seeing the umbrella the other person left behind on a rainy day brings back memories and makes it hard to bear, are heartbreakingly poignant.
RainYUI
A refreshing breakup song from the era when she performed under the name YUI.
Many of you may already know this, but she now goes by yui and is active as the guitarist and vocalist of FLOWER FLOWER.
With that in mind, even though “Rain” is a breakup song, it has a cool, rock-inspired vibe.
The lyrics don’t get sentimental about a broken heart—“You get dumped, you’re drenched in the rain, it’s the Christmas season, and yet this breakup will be the start of something”—which is rock to the core.
Highly recommended for anyone feeling down after a breakup!
