Hi-Fi Set Popular Song Rankings [2026]

Hi Fi SET I Want to Be Honest

A single released in 1984.

The lyrics and composition are by Masamichi Sugi.

For a Hi-Fi Set song, it has a notably strong pop sensibility—perhaps because Sugi, a devoted Beatles fan, let that influence shine through.

The key-changing chorus is filled to the brim with the feelings of a woman in love, making it irresistibly cute.

light blue wagon

A Hi-Fi Set song that feels like vivid memories overflowing from a single car you spot on a summer highway.

Its urbane, sophisticated sound is soothing, and it paints a scene where a license plate matching your hometown—glimpsed on the way to the sea—overlaps with days gone by.

Personal memories—like the sweet-and-sour taste of first love, the slightly bittersweet view of a graduation ceremony, and a wedding invitation from a friend—stir back to life in each listener’s heart.

Junko Yamamoto’s clear soprano deepens the nostalgia even further.

The album Pasadena Park, which opened with this track on side A, was released in February 1984 and peaked at No.

7 on the Oricon LP chart.

It was also released as a single in May of the same year.

It’s the perfect number for a summer drive, as if you could meet a slightly younger version of yourself.

Rainy Station – Hi-Fi Set

If you want to sink into a bittersweet mood on a rainy day, I recommend Hi-Fi Set’s “Ame no Station.” The song was originally by Yumi Matsutoya and was included on her third album, “COBALT HOUR.” Hi-Fi Set covered it in 1977, and the chorus harmonies are beautifully done.

It has a different kind of brilliance from Matsutoya’s version.

It’s a classic that conveys the aching feeling of waiting for someone on a rain-soaked train platform, so definitely give it a listen!

Good bye school days　Hi-Fi Set

A heartwarming graduation song that gently accompanies the end of student life.

Released in January 1984, this track shines with Hi-Fi Set’s sophisticated, urban sound and exquisite harmonies.

It beautifully captures the loneliness and poignancy of farewells that come with the arrival of spring, as well as the anticipation of a new beginning.

Often heard at high school and university graduation ceremonies, it’s perfect for those who want to reminisce.

It’s sure to give you a deeply moving, wonderful moment.
