I have no reason. (Remastered 2022)

The ending theme of the Shochiku-distributed film “Ojuken.” It’s the theme song for Eikichi Yazawa’s first starring role.

Though it’s from one of his few lead-actor films, it’s a song that gives you the courage to do your best, and I think it’s a hidden gem.

It’s a track that brings a bit of comfort.

LAHAINA (Remastered 2022)

It’s rare to find an artist whose vocals and performance alone make it instantly clear that it’s Yazawa.

Normally, artists are expected to seek evolution and change, but refusing that and continuing to thrive for decades is difficult—because fans are fickle.

Love is youYazawa Eikichi38rank/position

18 Love is You Eikichi Yazawa [Doraemon: Nobita and the Spiral City Adventure - Theme Song]

This is a grand yet gentle ballad sung by Eikichi Yazawa, who has long been at the forefront of Japan’s rock scene.

Released in October 1997, it was chosen as the theme song for the film “Doraemon: Nobita’s Great Adventure in the Wind-Up City.” Set against an urban backdrop, it portrays a deep love that embraces everything—tears and smiles alike—perfectly matching the moving story’s worldview.

Yazawa’s powerful yet warm voice resonates with lyrics that convey wavering feelings and tenderness.

The sweet, bittersweet melody—so unexpected from an artist known for rock—reminds us of the purity and preciousness of simply caring for someone dear.

Give it a listen when you truly cherish someone from the bottom of your heart.

Mr.T. (Remastered 2022)

A bluesy ballad included in the Complete Eikichi Yazawa collection released in 1985.

Yazawa’s breathy vocals and the screaming guitar sound leave a strong impression.

He sings it with a very sexy touch, conjuring up the atmosphere of a late-night nightclub.

Although it stands in stark contrast to his usual hard rock image, the unmistakable Yazawa world still shines through.

Oh! Lovesick – Eikichi Yazawa Acoustic Cover

This is the 43rd single, released in 1999.

It was a lead single from the album “LOTTA GOOD TIME,” which came out two months later.

It’s a cheerful honky-tonk-style boogie number.

The lyrics were written by Hisashi Kato of The Collectors.

The song is crafted as a tasteful, mid-tempo rock ’n’ roll piece modeled after the golden age of rock ’n’ roll.

Remarkably, on the album “LOTTA GOOD TIME,” Hisashi Kato wrote the lyrics for every track.

SEA BREEZEYazawa Eikichi41rank/position

Eikichi Yazawa SEABREEZE

It’s a connoisseur’s song favored by YAZAWA’s hardcore fans, but it can be said to be an excellent track.

You can get a sense of the kind of music YAZAWA likes, as it shows influences from soul and funk.

His vocal tone is also rich, and in a sense, this can be considered a valuable song that captures him at his peak.

Sweet WinterYazawa Eikichi42rank/position

Sweet Winter

“Sweet Winter,” a track included on ONLY ONE, the 29th album released to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the artist’s solo debut.

The spacious ensemble featuring piano and acoustic guitar, together with lyrics that paint a sentimental Christmas scene, truly moves the heart.

The melody is relaxed and the key isn’t too high, making it relatively easy to sing; however, be mindful of the sudden interval leaps and the slightly laid-back phrasing, which can easily cause you to fall out of rhythm.

It’s a hidden gem that’s perfect for karaoke in the cold season—one you’ll definitely want to add to your repertoire.
