From the very first line, you can feel Masashi Sada’s anti-war sentiments infused into this song.
“Another Mile,” performed by Raisin, the folk duo of singer-songwriter Masashi Sada and Masami Yoshida, vividly portrays scenes of war and the stories and episodes of the people surrounding them through his voice.
It’s a song whose persuasive lyrics strike the heart precisely because he is one of Japan’s leading folk singers.

Nostalgic Futuresadamasashi45rank/position
Masashi Sada, a singer-songwriter who made his major-label debut as a member of Grape and has continued to release numerous hit songs as a solo artist, marks his 50th anniversary with his 44th album.
Its title track, “Natsukashii Mirai” (A Nostalgic Future), draws you into its world from the very start with an intro featuring piano and strings.
The lyrics, which convey a resolve to protect someone precious, carry a certain wistfulness while still stirring the heart.
It’s a comforting number wrapped in Sada’s gentle, unchanging voice and soothing sound.
Ms. Marikosadamasashi46rank/position
A track included on Masashi Sada’s 1982 album Yume no Wadachi.
It’s said that this “Mariko-san” is the same person who appears in Miyuki Nakajima’s classic song “Akujo,” and the song portrays the loneliness of a woman whose feelings aren’t understood.
“Mariko-san” seeks a moment of happiness in alcohol.
Though she appears strong, it depicts emotions everyone carries in their hearts, and it quietly pierces you.
The gap between the melancholic lyrics and the slightly upbeat sound also leaves you with an indescribable feeling.
Shunie (Omizutori)sadamasashi47rank/position
“Shunie,” included on the 1993 album Aihimiteno, is a piece that unfolds a solemn and profound worldview inspired by Omizutori, the traditional ritual at Todaiji in Nara.
Its majestic sound evokes vivid images of Nigatsudo, with blazing torch flames and sutra chants reverberating through the hall.
Listening to this track draws your heart into a sacred space layered with the weight of history and the prayers of countless people.
Combined with Masashi Sada’s serene yet powerful vocals, conveying this austere atmosphere in song is no easy task; it calls not only for technique but also for a deep understanding of the piece’s spiritual world.
Why not first close your eyes, listen intently, and surrender yourself to the prayers echoing through the ancient capital’s night?
