Rainy BlueTokunaga Hideaki1rank/position
The debut song by Hideaki Tokunaga, a poignant love story that begins in a late-night phone booth.
Its lyrics—quintessentially Showa—paint cinematic scenes of urban stillness and rain, perfectly intertwined with delicate, emotionally rich vocals to create a gem of a track.
Released in January 1986, it reached No.
90 on the Oricon charts.
A rearranged version released in November 1997 rose to No.

By portraying heartbreak and loneliness as universal themes, it remains a beloved classic that resonates even today.
It’s the kind of bittersweet love song you’ll want to play on a rainy day—why not give it a listen?
The Last ExcuseTokunaga Hideaki2rank/position
You said that any more than this wouldn’t be for my sake.
I, too, said goodbye for your sake.
That’s an excuse; sadly, the final excuse came at the moment of parting.
Even as I pretended to sleep, I felt lonely, unable to do anything as you left this room.
We won’t meet again; it will only become a memory.
Stop the twilightTokunaga Hideaki3rank/position
With a high, crystal-clear voice like pure glass, this ballad beautifully captures the twilight scene, a song that feels as if it washes the listener’s heart clean.
It’s a track that makes you want to immerse yourself completely, where the world woven by the melody is perfectly complemented by Hideaki Tokunaga’s singing.
Surely more than anyone else in the worldTokunaga Hideaki4rank/position
This commercial portrays a man and a woman living apart exchanging words, expressing how ANA bridges the distance between them.
It conveys the idea that even the small moments of loneliness felt in their separate lives can be eased with ANA, and that ANA hopes to support the bond between their hearts.
Further highlighting the emotional core of the story and its warm sense of connection is Hideaki Tokunaga’s rendition of “Surely More Than Anyone in the World.” Its quieter sound compared to WANDS’ original is striking, and combined with Tokunaga’s gentle vocals, the feeling of love comes through even more strongly.
