A sadness and heartbreak that come through just from the title.

That sadness and ache are woven deeply into the lyrics as well.

When you’ve gone through a breakup or lost someone important, the hole left in your heart doesn’t easily close… It’s a helpless feeling that surely everyone has experienced.

This is a wonderful song I hope you’ll listen to at such times.

This is a renowned song by Motohiro Hata, distinguished by a cool, electronica-tinged sound that begins with an atmosphere reminiscent of being submerged in the sea.

It masterfully captures the complexities of our modern emotions—the truth behind muddled words, the emptiness of layering a dry heart over reality, and the descent into self-deception.

Delicately portraying the subtleties of the heart and the ambiguity between “lies” and “truth” in human relationships, this track opens the December 2015 album Scenes of Blue.

As Hata himself notes, “In today’s era, it’s hard to tell what’s a lie and what’s real,” and the song vividly depicts feelings everyone has likely experienced in everyday life.

It resonates deeply with those struggling in important relationships or harboring complicated emotions.

It’s a song by Motohiro Hata with a mature, sultry, moody chord progression and a bassline that feels great.

Though it’s a song about the night, it carries an exciting approach that urges you to burst into the world without going to sleep just yet—it even sounds like an invitation to try something a little mischievous.

It’s a track you’ll want to listen to on nights when you’re not ready to sleep and still haven’t had your fill of fun.

“Love’s Slave” — quite a heart-thumping title, isn’t it? This song is included on Motohiro Hata’s 2012 release, the End Roll EP.

It’s a love song that conveys the desire to become a slave to love, even the wish to be that way if it means the other person will keep loving you.

You can really feel just how deeply the singer loves the other person.

For those who feel the same way, it might be a tearjerker.

It’s a track that even makes you a little envious of a love so strong you wouldn’t mind being tied down.

The Ichikami commercial featuring the translucent and radiant Maki Horikita uses the song “Koi wa Yasashi Nobe no Hana yo,” sung by Motohiro Hata, which is included as a B-side on his single “Q&A.” The song is based on the operetta Boccaccio by Austrian composer Franz von Suppé.

In the Taisho era, it was adapted by Asakusa Opera into a uniquely Japanese version and has been sung for many years.

Comparing the feeling of love to flowers, the song evokes a distinctly Japanese sense of refined elegance.
