Yorushika – Hibernation (Toumin) (Lyrics/Kan/Rom/Eng)

A track that strikes the heart with the impatience felt as the seasons change and the earnest wish to simply spend quiet time with you.

Yorushika—comprised of composer n-buna and vocalist suis—included this song on their May 2018 mini-album “An Encore Is Not Needed for a Loser.” Set to a driving, exhilarating guitar-rock sound, the piece portrays emotions so delicate they make you want to escape reality.

In the online concert “Previous Life” held in January 2021, it was performed as the song that closed the story, leaving a deep afterglow.

As the cold grows harsher, if you listen on a solitary night in a warm room, lost in thought, or while thinking of someone dear, it’s sure to resonate deeply in your heart.

Liar

This ballad by Yorushika is perfect for autumn, when the hustle and bustle of summer settles down and a certain loneliness sets in.

Delicate piano melodies intertwine with vocalist suis’s clear, translucent voice, seeping deeply into the listener’s heart.

It portrays the loneliness of a protagonist who continues to wait, even as memories of a loved one fade away.

That feeling overlaps with the bittersweetness of summer coming to an end, making it all the more moving.

This beautiful song was produced as the ending theme for the anime film A Whisker Away, released in June 2020, further deepening the story’s emotional afterglow.

On those long autumn nights when you want to reflect on seasons past, it’s a piece to savor alone, slowly and fully.

Yorushika – Evening Calm, Someone, Firework Bewilderment (Lyrics/Kan/Rom/Eng)

A song that paints a poignant scene at summer’s end.

The soothing guitar riff evokes the cool air of dusk.

Released in August 2019, the track reflects both the melancholy of summer’s close and a clinging attachment to what one doesn’t want to lose.

Fireworks are sketched to preserve memories, and the act of playing guitar and piano is rendered poetically, conjuring vivid images of summer that linger in the heart.

It’s a perfect song for when you feel sentimental at the end of summer or want to look back on cherished memories.

Yorushika’s translucent vocals and literary lyrics gently envelop the loneliness of summer’s end.

Yorushika – Night Journey (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

This song, which portrays the end of summer and a farewell, is a track by the hugely popular rock band Yorushika.

Even among their works, this one stands out for its distinctly Japanese word choice.

The careful diction in the lyrics, together with the slightly wistful performance, creates a pensive atmosphere befitting the end of summer.

And above all, what truly pierces the heart is the story depicted in the lyrics.

From the scenes that feel like looking back on memories to the farewell at the very end, the more you think about it, the more moving it becomes—without a doubt.

Yorushika – Please Forget (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

A song by Yorushika whose gentle melody and soul-soothing vocals evoke a sense of nostalgia.

The theme centers on self-sacrificial love, as the narrator wishes for their beloved to “forget” them for the sake of the beloved’s future.

Yet behind those words seems to lie a desperate, contradictory feeling of “I actually don’t want you to forget,” and that tension tightens the listener’s chest.

Released in July 2024 as the theme song for the drama “GO HOME: Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department—Unidentified Persons Consultation Office,” this sentimental number quietly stays by your side on nights when you’re nursing heartbreak or immersing yourself in memories of someone dear.
