It’s a heartwarming song that portrays life’s journey and the bonds between people.

Released by Yu Takahashi in April 2017, it was also chosen as the theme song for the animated film Crayon Shin-chan: Invasion!! Alien Shiriri.

The song carries a positive message about the feeling of living together with someone far away and how taking detours in life can be valuable experiences.

It’s a track that gives you courage when you want to reaffirm your friendships or when you’re standing at a crossroads in life.

This is the theme song from a drama created by staff who had succeeded with Comet-san, following a similar concept.

It didn’t gain popularity and ended after just nine episodes, but Yasushi Yokoyama’s character is still very impactful even now, and I think it’s worth watching.

Kyosuke Takano, the guitarist of SuiseiNoboAz, fronts the rock band “Kyosuke Takano and 1997.” It’s a nostalgia-filled, sentimental rock song about the first live show he played after moving to Tokyo.

A heartfelt cry from those who live by pouring their souls into rock.

This song is included on the second album, This Armor, released in 2005.

Its title is a coined word by the artist, said to represent the present progressive tense of role-playing games, and the lyrics incorporate terms that evoke a fantasy world in line with that idea.

While the lyrics express a determination to move forward despite carrying sadness, the sound also conveys a mysterious sense of excitement and fun—like an adventure filled with hope for the future.

Rock ‘n’ Roll Love Fortune-tellingreisa

This is a song by Reisa, a singer who debuted as the “kid sister” act to Yokohama Ginbae, the quintessential Showa-era tsuppari rock band.

Released as her debut single in 1982, it’s a cute track that highlights a distinctly feminine charm, breezily singing about a yankee girl in love.

The sound is pure rock ’n’ roll—irresistibly feel-good! It’s a number that inevitably brings back memories of those good old days.

Young listeners, be sure to give it a try!
