Crying-Your-Eyes-Out Song Ranking [2026] (91–100)
A bouquet of flowers with loveSuperfly99rank/position

It was Superfly’s debut song and also the theme song for a TV drama, but at the time I was in elementary school and watched the show without paying much attention to the song.
Years later, when I listened to it again, the lyrics filled with straightforward gratitude moved me deeply, and it became a song that reminds me never to forget to be thankful.
Kaiju no Hanabuta (Monster’s Flower Song)Vaundy100rank/position

A song by Vaundy that sings about recalling the days when one held dreams as big as a kaiju and striving to reignite that passion.
Through a song once hummed by someone dear in the past, the protagonist sets out to reclaim the dreams, hopes, and childlike innocence they had nearly forgotten, all unfolding alongside a captivating melody.
Released as a digital-only single in May 2020, the track rapidly gained popularity after being performed at the end of 2022 on NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen.
Its call-and-response style, which unites performers and audience, makes it an ideal choice for school and cultural festivals.
