DEEN - Illuminated by the Moon

This is a song by the male vocal group DEEN.

When breaking up with a lover as in this song, it’s not always the case that both people have sorted out their feelings.

In fact, the other person may even seem more attractive than usual.

Although it’s up-tempo, it’s a bittersweet track about the end of a romance.

DEEN “For the Future (DEEN The Best DX)” Music Video Short ver.

The 7th single “For the Future,” used as the image song for Nippon TV’s ’95 Gekikukan Pro Baseball, is the first track composed by a member of the group and became a hit, reaching No.

1 on the Oricon chart.

The melody is relaxed without major dynamics, but be careful not to run out of breath on the chorus where the melody climbs to higher notes.

Overall, the key isn’t very high, but if you struggle to get through the chorus, try adjusting the key to one that suits your voice.

A Seaside Town ~indigo days~DEEN31rank/position

A Town with an Ocean View ~indigo days~ [DEEN] umino mieru machi

This is also a truly wonderful song, and I think it’s a classic.

It brings back the nostalgic smell of the sea.

It also reminds me of my hometown.

Since we had the ocean there, it feels especially nostalgic.

I miss those days when, in my youth, I could do it over and over again.

I’d love for children to listen to it before they enter adolescence and become adults.

Released in September 2000, it was also chosen as the theme song for TBS’s “Wonderful (Mini-Drama).” It proved popular, peaking at No.

16 on the Oricon chart and staying on the chart for four weeks.

It’s a track that keeps you company on lonely autumn nights, wrapped in quiet melancholy.

Why not let its soulful vocals stir your thoughts of someone special?

DEEN “I Want to Keep Smiling as My True Self (DEEN The Best DX)” Music Video Short ver.

A song that powerfully sings of the wish for a loved one’s happiness.

It was also chosen as the theme song for the drama “Pediatric Ward: Season of Life.” It’s noteworthy that this was the last song provided by Tetsurō Oda during DEEN’s time with Being.

The sound features a strikingly resonant piano tone, conveying a sense of bittersweet emotion within its warmth.

The vocals emphasize gentleness, giving the impression of a conversational delivery, and the calm singing style makes it particularly approachable to sing.

In the distant skyDEEN34rank/position

DEEN – In the Distant Sky

DEEN’s 14th single, a song that captures the bittersweet feelings of a long-distance relationship.

Released in February 1998, it was featured in a commercial for Japan Telecom’s “Super LCR,” which drew attention with actress Tomoko Yamaguchi’s appearance.

The frustration of only being able to connect by phone—and the pure longing to hear a loved one’s voice—is delicately expressed through Shuichi Ikemori’s clear, resonant vocals.

On nights when you’re thinking of someone dear who lives far away, lend your ears to this lyrical world.
