To the infinite beyond ~To infinity and beyond~

A single released by Noriyuki Makihara in 2009.

It’s a powerful number packed with a message about striving beyond your limits.

Through images like a dog trying to jump over a fence, the lyrics portray the importance of keeping on acting without giving up.

It’s a song that gives you a push to move first rather than overthinking.

It was used as the ending theme for TBS’s “Hitachi Sekai Fushigi Hakken!” and as the theme song for the drama “How a 30-Something Temp Gets a Full-Time Job.”

Noriyuki Makihara - I'm Okay (with lyrics)

This is a track from Noriyuki Makihara’s second album, “Kimi wa Dare to Shiawase na Akubi wo Shimasu ka,” released in 1991.

It’s a very straightforward breakup song that portrays a man who, despite the pain of separation, tries to remain composed.

It’s a wonderful song, so please give it a listen.

Fuyu Ga Hajimaru Yo (2012 Remaster)

The fourth single released by Noriyuki Makihara in November 1991 is a winter classic etched in many people’s hearts as the theme song for Sapporo Beer’s “Fuyu Monogatari” commercial.

Its buoyant shuffle beat and the chorus’s striking leaping melody stick in your ears, making it a song that lets you welcome the arrival of winter with excitement.

The lyrics carefully depict the warm, everyday life of a couple in love.

In 2012, a 24-bit digital remaster was included on the album “Aki Uta, Fuyu Uta.

~ Mou Koi Nante Shinai,” and the song was once again used in a commercial.

As the cold season sets in, it’s guaranteed to boost the mood when played at year-end parties or other drinking gatherings.

With its gentle, bright vocals that make you forget the winter chill, it stands as a quintessential winter song.

Noriyuki Makihara is well known for songs that are uplifting, cheerful, and courageous.

In the ballad “Sotsugyō Shashin,” a new side of Makki’s world emerges.

The wistful atmosphere unique to Noriyuki Makihara is truly wonderful.

The arrangement has a pop feel and is lovely, too.

It’s a cover that conveys the determination to face forward and move on to the next step.

Coming to See You [Live]

A song I definitely want you to sing at karaoke with your partner is Noriyuki Makihara’s “Kimi ni Ai ni Iku” (“Going to See You”).

It’s the opening number of his 1993 album SELF PORTRAIT, a ballad that gently expresses a man’s Sunday feelings as he heads out on a date with his girlfriend.

Listening to the lyrics warms your heart.

There’s a key change in the pre-chorus, so pitching it might be a bit tricky.

The final phrase is also a little high, but it’s a song I hope you’ll challenge yourself with and sing in front of your girlfriend.

Your Bicycle - Noriyuki Makihara (with lyrics)

A lighthearted pop song.

It portrays the feelings of a man who, after a big fight last night, decides to ride the bicycle the woman left behind and check on her while doing some shopping, as well as the scene of a neighborhood lady suspiciously eyeing the man pedaling a women’s bicycle.

Noriyuki Makihara – For the Loving Hearts

This is the song “For Hearts in Love,” which I believe is widely recognized as being sung by Mitsuki Takahata.

It was written as the theme song for the musical Coffee Prince, and since Coffee Prince is based on a Korean drama, the song is well-known in Korea as well.
