Best Lyrics & Popular Songs by Japanese Male Artists [2026] (Ranks 91–100)
Wonderful EverydayTakahashi Yuu99rank/position
Takahashi Yu’s first single, “Subarashiki Nichijou” (“Wonderful Everyday”).
The song’s driving energy and razor-sharp lyrics, which seem to cut into the spirit of the times, leave a strong impression.
Yet the lyrics aren’t merely an outlet for pent-up frustration; they also sing of the great love people seek in one another, conveying the strength to face a big theme head-on.
As the title suggests, it seems to urge us—amid the ordinariness of everyday life—to think of others and to cherish ourselves.
rainbowTakahashi Yuu100rank/position
Rainbow is a song written by Yu Takahashi as a cheer anthem for summer high school baseball.
The lyrics carry two major messages: one is a push for those who are hesitating—“Go on, give it a try.” The other is a call to live for tomorrow without being bound by past glory.
Takahashi wrote these messages based on what he felt when he actually visited the ballpark.
Try listening to it not only with baseball in mind, but by applying it to whatever you’re working hard at in your own life!
