Early summer rain

Active since 1996 and a major influence on the J-POP scene, Every Little Thing crafted “Samidare,” a song that portrays lost love, nostalgia for time gone by, and the importance of the love we receive from those dear to us.

Its bright message, symbolizing hope for the future, gives us the strength to overcome sorrow and face forward.

It’s especially recommended for those suffering from the pain of losing someone important or for anyone wanting to rethink how they relate to the past.

Every Little Thing is an artist that represents the Heisei era.

Some of you might have spent your youth with ELT’s music.

They’re known for a lot of high-pitched songs, but among them, “For the moment” has high notes mainly in part of the chorus, while the rest stays relatively within a comfortable range.

It also has a good groove, making it easier to sing.

In the high notes of the chorus, the melody climbs like steps, so building momentum is very important.

High notes are tough without enough breath, so where you breathe matters, too.

First, look through the lyrics and find where the high notes are.

Once you know the spots, try singing the melody so those parts become the accents.

It should be easier if you keep the rhythm while you sing!

Because you were there for me, I am who I am today.

That feeling of gratitude is woven into the song “nostalgia.” A mother is someone who, when you’re going through something hard, looks even more pained than you do, and who greets you with a smile even when she’s a little tired.

The warm home, the meals, and the kind words that were always there—these existed simply because you were loved.

It may feel a bit embarrassing, but once you’ve grown up and gone out into the world, be sure to express your thanks and wholeheartedly repay your parents’ kindness.

This is a single released in February 2001 that was selected as the theme song for the TBS drama “Big Wing.” Its forward-looking message and the exhilarating chorus that feels like the view suddenly opens up are truly memorable.

It was released after Mitsuru Igarashi left the group, marking their two-member lineup of Kaori Mochida and Ichiro Ito, and it’s also included on the album “4 FORCE.” Amid the bright tone of the song, a fleeting sense of poignancy and tension slips in—gently yet powerfully giving listeners a supportive push.

When you’re burdened with doubt or anxiety but still want to take a new step forward, this song will quietly be by your side.

Why not recharge your energy for tomorrow while immersing yourself in the vivid, powerful world that Every Little Thing portrays?
