Mirei Touyama “If There Were Another Goodbye” Lyric Video

This is a bittersweet breakup song that gently wraps feelings of regret and gratitude toward a loved one in a clear, translucent voice.

Released by Mirei Toyama in August 2021, it portrays the struggle with the pain of parting while trying to find gratitude for a “once-in-a-lifetime happiness.” The hesitation over when to bring up the breakup, and the strength to be the one to finally say “thank you,” are also compelling.

As a track from the album “still,” this cover of a original song by Sorari Sawada offers quiet solace to those who must end a relationship or are suffering through a love they need to let go of.

Novelbright – Evening Primrose [Official Music Video]

It’s a love ballad that begins with a heart-wrenching piano intro that tightens your chest—impossible to listen to without tears.

Unable to forget an ex-lover and inevitably drifting back to those memories… Yudai Takenaka’s overwhelming high-tone vocals deliver that helpless emotion with dramatic intensity.

Released digitally by Novelbright in December 2020, the song was featured as the Monthly Song for the weather segment on Fuji TV’s “Tokudane!”.

Its performance on the YouTube channel “THE FIRST TAKE” drew a huge response, and it was later included on the album “Kaimaku Sengen.” Give it a careful listen when you want to soothe the pain of heartbreak or have a good cry and feel refreshed at night.
