an elderly coupleHoshino Gen
Despite being only about two minutes long, Old Couple evokes a sense of a world that stretches infinitely.
It’s a track included on Gen Hoshino’s first album, Baka no Uta.
The song follows a grandfather as he visits places filled with memories of his late wife.
Nowhere in the lyrics does it explain why he is making the rounds or what he is thinking.
Precisely because of that, listeners can expand their imaginations—thinking, “It must be like this”—and the charm lies in being able to interpret the story in their own way.
Back-Alley Man’s SakeKihara Takeshi
Takeshi Kihara is an enka singer from Oshu City in Iwate Prefecture, acclaimed for his distinctive vocals filled with masculine melancholy and passion—especially in works that depict a man’s solitude, fervor, and the ups and downs of life through the lens of alcohol.
He released a single from Teichiku Records on October 16, 2024, vividly portraying a man’s inner turmoil in back alleys and the weight of a life he carries, with deeply emotional singing as its appeal.
Kihara’s warm yet powerful voice is said to move listeners profoundly.
Expectations are high for him to transcend the boundaries of enka and make an impact in the broader music scene.
Known for songs that portray a man’s life and emotional landscape, Kihara enjoys wide support among contemporary enka and kayōkyoku fans.
ROSEKimura Seiji
Seiji Kimura, who handled vocals and guitar for ZEPPET STORE, is from Iwaki City in Fukushima Prefecture, and this song was released in 1998 as their sixth single.
hide, a member of X JAPAN, had been deeply taken with ZEPPET STORE’s music while he was alive, and this song is a Japanese-lyrics ballad that was released after his death.
Logical Intuition RevolutionKise Non
This is an irresistible, upbeat, pop-style Vocaloid tune themed around learning! Created by Non Kise, it was released in March 2024.
Produced as part of Project SEKAI Academy, a development initiative for young creators, the track centers on piano-driven sound that’ll lift your spirits just by listening.
The lyrics, which question the idea of the “right answer,” are striking, emphasizing the importance of having your own criteria for judgment.
It’s a perfect song for anyone looking to encounter new values or take a fresh look at themselves!
Rock ’n’ Rolltoukyou shoki shoudou
I’d like to recommend Tokyo Shoki Shodo’s “Rock’n’Roll” as a cover song for beginner bands with a female vocalist who want to unleash their uncontrollable impulses through music! Released in 2019, it closes out their debut album, and as the band name and song title suggest, it’s a classic that blasts full-throttle punk-to-rock’n’roll fueled by pure primal impulse.
With a BPM over 200, this track is more about throwing your whole body and spirit into it than about technical prowess, so I want the whole band to unite and play without getting shaken off by the speed.
The toughest part is probably the drums: the punky two-beat in the intro will leave you behind if you let your guard down, so work hard to nail your role—keeping solid time amid the frenzy!
Lonely SoldierMatsuda Satoshi
Kamen Rider Ryuki gained attention for its premise of 13 Kamen Riders battling each other, and Satoshi Matsuda played Ren Akiyama, who transforms into Kamen Rider Knight.
This song was created as its theme song and was used in episode 38.
RomantiqueMoriyama Naotaro
A song that portrays the changing seasons in a romantic light.
Created by singer-songwriter Naotaro Moriyama, it was released in January 2024 and written as the theme song for the anime Ochibi-san.
The lyrics weave in seasonal scenery—spring’s cherry blossoms, summer’s water lilies, autumn’s fragrant olive, and winter’s plum blossoms—leaving a very beautiful impression.
The harmony of the chill sound and the gentle vocals is lovely as well.
Highly recommended for those who want to cherish the small moments of everyday life.
