Included on the first disc of Toshio Kadomatsu’s instrumental album.

Each track on this album is titled with a different woman’s name.

If there’s a song with your own name, it might give you a big boost in concentration from that track! (lol) Released in 1987, but the guitar tone hasn’t faded a bit.

One of the quintessential figures of city pop, Toshiki Kadomatsu’s “FRIDAY TO SUNDAY” is another unforgettable track.

The urbane Japanese pop influenced by Western music—by artists like Eiichi Ohtaki, Tatsuro Yamashita, and Happy End, commonly labeled as city pop—grew into a major movement.

Some argue the boom was really about how listeners perceived the music, and many artists never explicitly identified themselves as city pop.

As for “FRIDAY TO SUNDAY,” its 40-second intro is compelling, and the arrangement, which evokes classic soul, is particularly noteworthy.

If you haven’t heard it yet, it’s worth making time to listen.

It’s the theme song of the film “The White Ship,” which is set on the Shimane Peninsula in Shimane Prefecture.

The grand melody pairs beautifully with the lyrics “I want to believe in you,” and it almost brings me to tears.

The film’s story was also deeply moving.
