[40s] Popular Songs Ranking by Generation [2026] (91–100)

Secret of my heartKuraki Mai99rank/position

A song from the early days of Mai Kuraki’s career that sings of feelings kept deep in one’s heart.

Released in April 2000, it was used as the ending theme for the TV anime Detective Conan.

This track is indispensable when talking about Kuraki’s career, becoming a major hit that ranked 16th on the Oricon Yearly Chart.

It also won Song of the Year.

Its lyrics, woven with simple words, carry a warmth that resonates with anyone who struggles to be honest with their feelings.

It’s recommended not only for young people harboring feelings for someone they love, but also for those who want to linger in memories of the past.

PUFFY “A Sign of Love” OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO
Sign of LovePUFFY

Among people in their early 40s, PUFFY can be considered a very popular music duo.

Many of you may have imitated their fashion, too.

Of all PUFFY’s songs, the one I especially recommend is “Ai no Shirushi” (“The Sign of Love”).

Its vocal range is mid2B to hiB, which is low enough that it wouldn’t be unusual even for a male vocalist.

The highest note only appears twice in the chorus, so even those who tend to go off-pitch on high notes should be able to sing it without trouble.
