yama Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (41–50)
semicolonyama43rank/position
A bittersweet yet powerful anthem that symbolizes a turning point in life.
Created by yama for their fourth album, “; semicolon,” this song delivers a message centered on self-acceptance and the courage to take a new step forward.
While delicately portraying emotions swaying along ambiguous boundaries, the lyrics also evoke hope for the future, and the fusion with a grand, beautiful sound arrangement is deeply moving.
It’s music that stands by your side when you’re struggling.
Daydream Believeryama44rank/position
Daydream Believer, sung by The Timers, the rock band fronted by Kiyoshiro Imawano.
In fact, the song itself is a cover of the American rock band The Monkees.
The track is well known as a Seven-Eleven commercial song, and in 2021 it was covered by the singer yama.
yama’s characteristically gentle soundwork and stylish arrangement are striking, resulting in a refined impression that highlights yama’s signature smoky voice.
Record (feat. Taka Perry)yama45rank/position
Singer-songwriter yama, whose stylish musicality has made her popular among women in their teens and twenties, has recently been leaning into Black music, producing sophisticated tracks in genres like R&B.
Among her R&B-tinged works, the one I especially recommend is Record (feat.
Taka Perry).
While it has an R&B flavor, it barely features advanced techniques like melismas or falls.
The vocal range is about average, and although the pitch movement is a bit on the dynamic side, it’s exceptionally easy to sing for an R&B-style track.
sky blueyama46rank/position
Amaresora, which was used as the CM song for Rocky’s “Beautiful Drive @ Terraced Rice Fields” commercial.
It’s a track included on singer-songwriter yama’s first album, the meaning of life, released in 2021—yama is also known for songs like “Haru wo Tsugeru.” This song was actually yama’s first as both lyricist and composer.
While yama often evokes a mysterious, lyrical style, Amaresora, though introspective, also feels outward-looking, carrying a gentle sensation like being touched by the wind.
It’s a beautiful number whose sense of speed pairs perfectly with the vocals and the clear, expansive sky.
Shangri-Layama47rank/position
It’s a rhythmic number that, despite its trendy vibe, somehow feels refreshingly new.
The song is by yama, the singer known for the hit “Haruni Tsugeru,” and it was released in 2022 as the 12th single.
The lyrics and composition were handled by TOOBOE, who also works under the Vocaloid producer name john.
It’s a highly addictive piece where yama’s crisp vocals shine over a funky arrangement.
The lyrics philosophically distill “life” itself—inevitably marked by betrayal and resignation—into the song.
Sand Castleyama48rank/position
A beautiful track by yama, woven from delicate melodies and a dreamlike worldview.
Skillfully blending ephemeral yet powerful elements of electronica and alternative pop, this piece was released in May 2025.
Co-composed with Kohei Ueguchi, it achieves a refined sound that sets it apart from yama’s previous works.
As a lead single from the album “GRIDOUT,” it’s drawing considerable attention.
Its introspective, emotionally rich lyricism and hauntingly beautiful melody lines are full of a resonance that lingers in the heart.
It’s a song you’ll want to listen to when you pause in your daily life and face your inner self.
Perfect, too, as background music for a quiet night or a reflective moment.
BURNyama×WurtS49rank/position
The collaboration between yama and WurtS has finally happened! Centered on the theme of “inner passion,” it portrays the hidden feelings of anime characters and the clashes of their emotions.
Set against a tumultuous era, the song depicts the conflict between each character’s sense of justice.
It’s a compelling track that fuses their distinctive vocals and worldviews.
Chosen as the opening theme for Cour 2 of the TV anime Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Swordsman Romantic Story – Kyoto Inferno, it’s perfect not only for anime fans but also for anyone who wants to feel intense emotions and inner struggle.
