Kenshi Yonezu Love Songs and Popular Tracks Ranking [2026] (11–20)
Bye, see you again sometime!Yonezu Kenshi11rank/position
A fantastical, atmospheric soundscape gently reaches deep into your ears.
Written as the theme song for the NHK morning drama series “Tora ni Tsubasa,” this work is scheduled to be released on streaming services starting April 8, 2024.
As the lyrics “I want to meet you a hundred years from now” suggest, it portrays changes and growth in human relationships that transcend time.
You can feel a powerful sense of moving forward amid partings and reunions, and the cycles of life.
Overlapping with the protagonist’s struggles in the legal world, it’s likely to become a song that gives listeners a supportive push.

Kenshi Yonezu wrote “LADY” as an original song for a Japan Coca-Cola Georgia commercial.
It portrays the tedium of everyday life that repeats as if it were a given, and conveys that, in fact, it’s something irreplaceable.
Matching the theme, the song weaves in various elements of repetition throughout, including tightly rhymed lyrics.
Another highlight is how those repetitions gradually change toward the end, aligning with the song’s theme.
Try listening for which parts are being repeated.

This song portrays a bittersweet love that resonates deeply with anyone who has experienced parting from someone dear.
Released in June 2023 as the theme song for FINAL FANTASY XVI, it is a meticulously crafted piece that Kenshi Yonezu completed over roughly three years.
The lyrics are imbued with longing for a lost loved one and the wish to meet again, tightening the listener’s chest.
Reflecting Yonezu’s love for games, the track is recommended not only for game fans but also for those who have lost someone precious or who carry feelings for someone far away.
Why not surrender yourself to the heartfelt lyrics and Yonezu’s vocals, and spend a quiet, reflective autumn night?

One song you should listen to now, when everyday life has been changed by COVID: Canary.
It’s included on singer-songwriter Kenshi Yonezu’s fifth album, STRAY SHEEP.
When I listen to this song, I can’t help but think of someone I love or someone important to me… I imagine many people haven’t been able to see the ones they love much during COVID, or have had fewer moments of closeness with their partners.
This song gently stays beside those unruly, unmanageable feelings.
It’s known as a tearjerker, so please give it a listen when you’re having a hard time.
Gray and Blue (+Masaki Suda)Yonezu Kenshi15rank/position
Known as a masterpiece that portrays a heartrending love, this song sparked buzz with the collaboration between Kenshi Yonezu and Masaki Suda, and drew attention as an advance single from the album BOOTLEG.
Its lyrics depict memories of school days and youth, imbued with a longing for something that remains unchanged over time.
The background—said to be inspired by the film Kids Return—is fascinating as well.
The music video surpassed 1 million views within 24 hours of its release and has now exceeded 200 million views.
It’s a song that sinks into the heart—one you’ll want to listen to on an autumn evening, sitting on a park bench.
I wish I could be a bird.Yonezu Kenshi16rank/position
It’s a song sung by the popular singer-songwriter Kenshi Yonezu, told from a woman’s perspective who says that if she can’t be chosen by the person she loves, she’d rather become a bird and stay by his side.
The tune itself doesn’t feel dark or disturbed, but don’t you sense a hint of shadow in lyrics like “You are my everything” and “I’ll follow you even if I have to become something else,” which is a bit unusual for a straightforward love song? If a human actually did this, it would be full-on stalking… It’s very easy to listen to, so please give it a try.
Lullaby, goodbyeYonezu Kenshi17rank/position
It’s a philosophical piece about bidding farewell to the world one lives in.
It’s a song by singer-songwriter Kenshi Yonezu, included as a B-side on the 2017 single “orion.” The lyrics are filled with sharp words about the distance between oneself and others and about modern society, and listening to it pierces the heart.
That said, I imagine many people feel the same way.
It’s perfect for those solitary moments when you want to take your time and think.
