Family Daymisono72rank/position
Told from a son’s perspective expressing respect for his father and a daughter’s perspective conveying gratitude to her mother, this unique song was composed by George Tokoro.
Because it’s from the same-gender viewpoints, the poignant episodes and turns of phrase resonate deeply, making it a work brimming with love for one’s parents.
honeysuckleArakezuri73rank/position
Arakezuri is a four-piece rock band calling themselves a “timid rock band,” drawing attention with straight-to-the-point messages and rock sounds that don’t chase trends.
“Honeysuckle,” which closes their album QUINTET, features an arrangement that shifts from a piano-and-strings ensemble into a rock sound—an emotional progression that really stirs the heart.
Its lyrics, woven with gratitude to a father over a warm melody, may speak on behalf of the words we can’t usually say.
It’s an emotional number you’ll want to send along with the flower language meaning of honeysuckle: “bonds of love.”
Father&SonGLAY74rank/position
GLAY is a four-member rock band that dominated the J-POP scene in the 1990s, set numerous milestones, and continues to be highly active today.
“Father & Son,” included on their major seventh album, UNITY ROOTS & FAMILY, AWAY, is a track in which TAKURO, who composed the song, expresses his feelings toward his father, who passed away when he was a child.
Its somewhat floating ensemble and melancholic melody, together with the sentimental lyrics, are deeply moving.
It’s a hidden gem that conveys the bond between parent and child, urging us to deliver our messages to those who matter while we still can.
handKudō Shintarō75rank/position
Singer-songwriter Shintaro Kudo, who achieved an unprecedented 10-week winning streak on the audition show “Aim to Be a Pro: GOGO Utajiman,” made his major debut.
The title track of his first mini-album, “Te” (Hands), leaves a lasting impression with the contrast between delicate acoustic guitar tones and his bright vocals.
The lyrics, themed around hands that bear the marks of each person’s life, are sure to fill your heart with gratitude—not only for your father but for your mother as well.
It’s a song you’ll want to give on that special once-a-year day, a number that will make your heart swell precisely because it lets you truly feel your gratitude.

She’s known for her stylish looks and her slightly husky, powerful vocals.
The song “amber” is moving, with lyrics like a message from a son or daughter saying, “Don’t worry, because our hearts are always connected even when we’re far apart.” It’s the kind of song that makes you feel like you might be able to say the words you’re usually too embarrassed to say—“thank you, Dad”—that you’ve always wanted to tell him.
