EPO’s Most Popular Songs Ranking [2026]
Wind like musicEPO1rank/position
First of all, the sensation of feeling “wind” in the music is extremely beautiful.
The sound itself is clear and modern, free of any muddiness.
It was released in 1985.
The arrangements are inventive, and describing the end of a romance as closing the pages of an album is a particularly elegant touch.
DOWN TOWNEPO2rank/position
The timeless classic “DOWN TOWN,” beloved across generations.
As EPO’s debut work, its distinctive musicality feels strikingly modern, as if it were ahead of its time.
With lyrics by Ginji Ito that consciously embrace Japanese pop sensibilities, it deftly captures both the glitz of the city at night and the buoyant feelings of its people.
Carried by EPO’s soulful vocals, the story of “DOWN TOWN” vividly rekindles the youth of those now in their seventies, while also giving a flutter of excitement to those of us living today.
Why not enjoy a special night drive, different from the everyday, while listening to this song through your car speakers? Be sure to experience the dreamy sonic world EPO weaves.
April Fools in DecemberEPO3rank/position
It’s a bittersweet ballad where the festive sparkle of a winter city at Christmastime overlaps with the sorrow of a love’s end—an irony that cuts deep.
The song by EPO was released as a single in November 1985 and included on the album “PUMP! PUMP!” With lyrics and composition by EPO herself and arrangement by Hiroshi Sato, its sophisticated sound blends AOR balladry with city pop.
The lyrics are striking for how they overlay the pain of heartbreak—realizing the person you believed was your only one was not—onto a title that deliberately invokes a “day of lies.” A self-cover version was released in 1993, and a completely re-arranged re-recording in 1999, keeping the song loved for many years.
It’s a track that quietly stays by your side when you feel a little distant from the dazzling Christmas scene.
Hee, hee, hee, hee,EPO4rank/position
This commercial expresses the deliciousness of McDonald’s limited-time item, the Rich and Savory Kalbi-Style Teritama, by layering it with the gentle air of spring.
The highlight is Ryo Yoshizawa, joyfully moving with the new product in hand, and his subsequent smile conveys a pure sense of excitement.
The song that further accentuates the springtime exhilaration depicted in the visuals is EPO’s “U, Fu, Fu, Fu.” Its light, memorable sound carried by a gentle rhythm, combined with the tender yet powerful vocals, evokes a feeling of joyful anticipation.
Coke is it! ’86EPO5rank/position
Singer-songwriter EPO, known for her signature song “U, Fu, Fu, Fu,” was active in the 1980s.
This is the 1986 version of “Coke is it!” It’s a video that exudes a pure, unclouded, sunlit aura characteristic of the bubble era.
About meEPO6rank/position
It’s a story-driven piece that feels like you could write a short story from it.
The present “me” writes letters to myself at 15 and 20, and the replies say, “I was happy.” But the current “me” has lots of worries.
In the ending, when I write a letter to my future self, the reply says, “You’ve got the wrong name”…
that’s the kind of story it tells.
And in the present, there’s someone who gently lays a blanket over me and says, “You’ll catch a cold,” as I doze off after writing the letter.
It’s a song that makes you feel that something good is bound to happen somewhere.
Released in 1985.
Endless ValentineEPO7rank/position
“Endless Valentine” is EPO’s 23rd single, released in 1990.
It’s a track that’s incredibly soothing, thanks to EPO’s clear, translucent voice.
Back in the ’80s, her songs were often used in commercials, weren’t they? It’s an easy-listening classic that goes down smoothly.
Saturday night is paradiseEPO8rank/position
A fourth single by EPO, the singer-songwriter known for hits like “U, Fu, Fu, Fu,” and a leading figure of ’80s city pop.
It was used as the ending theme for Fuji TV’s “Oretachi Hyokin-zoku,” so many people have likely heard its light, catchy melody.
Although it may seem like a party song depicting a sparkling weekend night, it actually sings of the helpless feelings after a broken heart.
The lyrics, set to an intentionally up-tempo sound, portray the brave attempt to look forward even without a loved one by your side—glittering like a city nightscape yet tinged with melancholy, resonating deeply.
Released in October 1982 and also included on the album “VITAMIN E·P·O,” it’s a stylish heartbreak song.
Silent JealousyEPO9rank/position
When you’re going through a painful romance, “Silent Jealousy” is the perfect track for shedding tears and letting your thoughts wander.
It’s a 1982 work by EPO.
This pop song stylishly sets themes of love triangles and jealousy toward a rival to a chic groove.
EPO is a leading artist of Japanese city pop and new music, and she remains highly popular among younger generations today.
She has created theme songs for TV programs and numerous commercial jingles, and “Silent Jealousy” is extremely catchy as well.
Though it sings about jealousy, the bright, pop vocals and arrangement make it an easy-on-the-ears number.
