Yorushika – Just Clear Skies for You (MUSIC VIDEO)

This is a song that strikes the heart with a bittersweet longing for summer days gone by.

Created by Yorushika, it features a refreshing yet somehow melancholic melody, while Suis’s clear, translucent vocals beautifully convey the protagonist’s nameless loneliness and the emotional wavering that comes with growing up.

The lyrics depict vivid summer scenes, nostalgia for lost time, and regret over words left unsaid, touching the listener’s heartstrings.

The track is included in the mini-album “No Encore for the Loser,” released in May 2018.

In December 2019, it was used as the BGM for the opening video of the comedy duo Tarinai Futari’s live show, leaving a strong impression when paired with the visuals.

It’s an emotional number perfect for moments at summer’s end when you want to sit alone by the seaside, gazing at the sunset in quiet reflection, or when you wish to gently revisit the bittersweet memories of your youth.

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.
