End of autumn

Autumn tends to make us sentimental no matter what we’re doing, and there’s a song by the rock band Neguse that seems sure to amplify that feeling.

Its clever wordplay layers the “end of boredom” in love with the “end of autumn,” conveying, with palpable intensity, the premonition of a relationship with someone you once loved coming to an end and the helplessness that follows.

This track, included on their April 2021 mini-album Happy na Kurashi (A Happy Life), is one of the band’s signature early works.

Many people likely feel this way when they think back on a former lover.

With its realistic lyrics, this poignant love song gently keeps you company on a long autumn night.

Neguse. “Let’s Be in Love for Life” Official Music Video

This is a love song that straightforwardly expresses honest feelings for someone you’ll love for a lifetime.

Everyday conversations, the desire to always be together.

Though both have flaws, it sings about holding on and staying together from here on.

The lyrics evoke images of lovers living with kindness and care, carrying little moments of happiness.

Released by Neguse in February 2026, this work marks the first time guitarist Naoya handled both lyrics and composition for a single.

If you struggle to be honest and often feel anxious, consider gifting this song.

It’s a track for lovers overflowing with gratitude for the miracles that keep on happening.

The taste of love

A digital-only single released in November 2025.

In contrast to the lively pop-rock they excel at, this one is crafted as a mid-tempo slow number.

The lyrics look back on a relationship that has already ended, poignantly blending the regret of wishing they’d been more honest about their feelings at the time with the certainty that they were truly happy.

It’s a track that makes you want to revisit past loves—perfect for the chill of the season.
