Rain

Rain, a ballad with a memorable acoustic guitar intro, is a track from Kumi Koda’s 2004 album feel my mind.

The slightly exotic sound really feels like her style, doesn’t it? According to Koda, the song depicts the growing distance between her and her boyfriend at the time.

It poignantly recounts rain-related memories from when they were still close.

There’s also an unplugged version included on her 2006 single No Regret, so be sure to give it a listen!

Kumi Koda - The Last Rain

Singer Kumi Koda, who pioneered a one-of-a-kind “sexy-cool” style and is counted as one of the songstresses of the Heisei era.

“Saigo no Ame,” included as the B-side to her 9th single “Gentle Words,” is known as a cover of Yasushi Nakanishi’s long-running hit.

The sentimental lyrics depicting heartbreak may reveal a different landscape when sung from a woman’s perspective.

As a famous song that almost everyone has heard at least once, it’s a sure-fire ballad to get the crowd going at karaoke during the rainy season—just like its title suggests.
