Takuro Yoshida Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (31–40)
I want to become the wind.yoshida takurou31rank/position
Takuro Yoshida often uses seasons and nature in his song titles, and that may well be the theme of his life’s work.
I also noticed there are few English titles.
There might be some, but with my limited knowledge I’m not sure.
This song, too, is a moving masterpiece.
Luoyangyoshida takurou32rank/position
It’s one of Takuro Yoshida’s signature songs, contrasting the image of contemplating life’s long journey with the scenery of the sun setting on the horizon.
It’s also memorable for its many arrangements, including the version used as the theme song for the drama “Ano Natsu ni Dakaretai.” The lyrics, written by Osami Okamoto, are said to be based on his real experiences, and you can feel the authenticity that comes from scenes he actually witnessed.
The gentle, deliberate delivery makes it easy to sing, and it’s important to cherish the words and perform them with care.
Clear Stream (To My Father)yoshida takurou33rank/position
“Seiryu (To My Father)” is a song that, with the passing of years, deepens one’s appreciation of a father’s greatness and evokes a tender nostalgia.
In moments when life suddenly feels uncertain, the honest longing to see one’s father now shakes the heart.
It’s a renowned track included on Takuro Yoshida’s 31st album, Afternoon Weather.
After the Festivalyoshida takurou34rank/position
This song sings about the loneliness and emptiness that arrive after a big wave of excitement—a kind of festival—has ended.
It was included on the 1972 album “Genki Desu,” and later appeared as the B-side to the single “Rakuyō.” It’s often described as depicting the atmosphere after the decline of the student movement, evoking an image of turning inward and facing one’s own heart precisely because the major upheaval has passed.
To convey the passage of time and emphasize the loneliness, the key is to sing in a relaxed manner.
With a gentle tempo and a conversational feel, it should be a relatively approachable song to perform.
Woo Babyyoshida takurou35rank/position
One of Takuro’s early signature songs, it straightforwardly sings of his love for his wife, expressing his own feelings while also acknowledging contemporary critiques of singing love songs.
The overall rock vibe is great, too! It’s not a mellow tune, so it’s highly recommended for those who want a change of pace or to have fun at karaoke.
Rather than belting it out, easing up and singing coolly will likely make it really stylish.
Also, since it has a bouncy rhythm, try lightly moving your body as you sing! Enjoy that urban feel while you perform!
The sorrow left behindyoshida takurou36rank/position
It’s a bittersweet song of adult regret.
As we grow older, it’s the kind of track whose lyrics and melody pierce deeper—memories of the past, feelings we left behind, a life we look back on.
The overall vocal range is relatively calm, making it easy to speak-sing and perform.
The chorus melody builds more emotionally toward the latter half, so if you gradually raise your intensity as you sing, your voice will open up and the lyrics and emotions will come across more clearly.
When things swell, try projecting your voice as if aiming far away to avoid closing your throat.
Keep the storytelling that’s so important in folk songs in mind, and definitely give it a try.
Even if I hold you this muchyoshida takurou37rank/position
It’s a song that sings about the bitterness of adult love—feelings like “being by someone’s side yet not feeling fulfilled,” “holding them yet not reaching them,” and “unrequited emotions.” The overall tone isn’t dark because it includes a chorus, so I think it’s a song you can sing with a bright feeling even though it’s bittersweet.
Since it ends with a fade-out, deciding in advance how far into the lyrics you’ll sing should help it conclude cleanly without feeling awkward.
For a Takuro Yoshida song, the vocal range might be a bit on the higher side.
If you lift your facial muscles properly while singing, it should help prevent your voice from getting tight and make it easier to sing.
sparkler (Japanese handheld firework)yoshida takurou38rank/position
At just 2 minutes and 10 seconds, it’s quite a short song, and I think it’s an easy one for anyone who admires folk music to try! As the title suggests—“beautiful but fleeting,” “knowing it will disappear,” “yet wanting to keep looking”—it’s an adult folk song that overlays those symbols onto love and life.
The lyrics are very short, but that brevity is packed with meaning and makes you think, and the very last line really pierces the heart.
The vocal range isn’t too high, so it’s perfect for a spoken, storytelling style; I think it’s best to sing the lyrics carefully with feeling.
Especially the last phrase—it can be fun to experiment with how you want to deliver it in your own way!
At a sublime momentyoshida takurou39rank/position
It’s a song included on Takuro Yoshida’s studio album “detente,” released in June 1991, and it was used as the commercial song for the Mazda Cronos.
The album peaked at No.
12 on the Oricon chart.
Whenever I arrive, it’s always raining.yoshida takurou40rank/position
With lyrics that convey a mature sense of melancholy and life experience, this song will likely resonate especially with older listeners and male vocalists.
The track itself is under three minutes and on the shorter side, but it gradually builds toward the latter half as the chorus comes in, lifting your spirits.
The overall tone is on the brighter side, so raising your facial muscles and eyebrows while singing makes it easier to hit the pitches and switch smoothly into falsetto.
Another key point is to respect the phrasing—sing each phrase carefully and keep the separations clear.
Don’t force it; relax your shoulders and sing as if you’re speaking.
