A Fragment of Eternity (Remastered 2022)

The lyrics of this song are really excellent, and they resonate deeply with adults of a certain age.

There’s a kind of enka-style wabi-sabi to it, which is probably something Eikichi Yazawa excels at most.

I used to listen to it a lot back in the day, so even now it still hits me right in the heart.

Eikichi Yazawa - “Truth” Music Video

Eikichi Yazawa, the legend who has continued to lead Japan’s rock scene.

Released to mark the 50th anniversary of his solo debut, this song is a superb ballad created through his first-ever collaboration with lyricist Yukinojo Mori.

It was released as a single in August 2025 and chosen as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “The Last Appraiser.” It is also included on the album “I believe.” Set to a tender yet heartrending melody, the lyrics express a yearning to seek the truth within falsehoods and the fragility of love, resonating deeply with listeners.

It’s a track that gently embraces you when you want to face yourself on a quiet night.

Silk Dress (Remastered 2022)

A song with a striking blues harp (harmonica) in the middle.

It has a distinctive character, and the song itself is powerful, so it should stand out among many of Yazawa’s tracks.

The catharsis and vocal delivery as it builds toward the ending are superb.

Friday’s Freeze MoonYazawa Eikichi74rank/position

Friday’s Freeze Moon (Remastered 2022)

A rock ballad included on the 2001 release YOU, TOO COOL.

The lyrics were written by Ken Takahashi.

The sound is simply constructed, but the conversational, talk-like melody bursts forth.

The highlight, I think, is where the final swell intertwines with the guitar’s single-note lines.

The way the emotion soars endlessly toward the latter half is truly beautiful.

Silver Necklace (Remastered 2022)

A track included on the 1992 release “Anytime Woman.” Lyrics by Takashi Matsumoto.

It’s an up-tempo rock number.

The chorus features a powerful melody.

I think it really fires up the crowd at live shows! On stage, it’s memorable to see Yazawa running around while singing.

By the final outro, you’ll feel like raising your fist and shouting.

Try copying it at karaoke and your energy will soar!
