I want to take only you away just like this.DEEN1rank/position

This is the debut single by DEEN, a rock band that made its major-label debut as part of the Being boom that swept Japan in the 1990s.
Despite being their debut song, it was also used in a commercial and became a million-selling hit, standing as DEEN’s biggest and most iconic track.
It’s a ballad packed with elements that anyone would consider a classic: bittersweet feelings and hope directed toward a former partner, and a gentle, beautiful melody.
It’s a soothing song that heals the fatigue of everyday life, and one I recommend even to those who don’t usually listen to ballads.
The Summer Without YouDEEN2rank/position

A single by DEEN released in 1997.
It was also used as a theme song for the anime Detective Conan, so some of you might remember hearing it often back then.
It’s a mid-tempo ballad featuring DEEN’s signature rock sound.
The lyrics look back on summer memories with a former lover who has now gone far away, striking deep in the heart.
Rather than dwelling on lingering attachment, the song’s evocative imagery leans more toward nostalgia, keeping it from feeling overly sentimental—that’s a key point of this track.
It’s a great pick when you’re in the mood for a refreshing ballad.

In a season that brings the chill of winter, heartfelt ballads feel just right.
DEEN’s songs are characterized by melodies that evoke scenes of snow quietly piling up and warm, soothing vocals.
The lyrics depict a poignant desire to convey unchanging love, even when apart—feelings that many can relate to.
Released in November 1993, this track was also used in an NTT DoCoMo pager commercial.
It achieved major success, debuting in the Top 3 on the Oricon chart.
It’s the perfect song to listen to on a winter night while thinking of someone special.
Let its heartwarming melody wrap around you and enjoy a truly lovely moment.
