[Rainy Season Songs] Masterpieces and Rain Songs That Evoke the Monsoon, Interpreted Through Their Lyrics (41–50)

Amezing BluesT-junctions

A song whose husky vocals linger in your ears, giving you the courage to stand up.

It’s a work by the band T-jidos (T字路s), made up of Taeko Ito and Tomohito Shinoda, released in 2022.

It was written as the theme song for the film “If You Scream in the Rain.” The impassioned vocal work makes you want to say, “Now this is the blues”—it’s so cool! The sound has a simple structure, yet it leaves a bracing impression.

And the lyrics about “not caring if you get caught in the rain” give you energy and motivation.

It’s a work with a unique atmosphere where the sound itself feels like rain.

The song is by the band Yogee New Waves, known for their city-pop sensibilities, and it’s included on their first EP, “Climax Night e.p.,” released in 2014.

Its appeal lies in an inviting soundscape: a relaxed rhythm topped with laid-back guitar tones that make you want to keep listening.

The sections where the tempo picks up and the way the sound spreads out at the end are irresistible.

And be sure to pay attention to the lyrics’ mysterious worldview, too.

“I thought we’d always be together…” If you’ve experienced heartbreak, you probably know that feeling.

This song by the music duo Haruka to Miyuki is included on their fourth album, Tomorrow Will Be Sunny, released in 2021.

The lyrics vividly capture the raw emotions after a breakup, making it a highly relatable piece.

And although it’s a heartbreak song, what you’re left with after listening is a sense of freshness.

It’s a ballad that encourages you to look ahead and think, “Let’s start again from here.”

I find myself utterly absorbed by the melody, guitar, and bass, as if tracing each rhythm one by one.

It’s a work by the three-piece band PETROLZ, included on their first album, Renaissance, released in 2015.

How about it for a coffee break while watching the rain?

This is a chill-out number that carries that kind of moist, atmospheric vibe.

It’s a work by the singer-songwriter Yuga, included on the 2019 mini-album “Meguru.” With its dreamy synths, intricately phrased beats and bass, and warm vocals, it’s truly a pleasure to listen to.

Thanks to this song, you might even start to like rainy days.
