Unchanging ThingsYamazaki Tomoko

[Chorus Song] The Unchanging Things / With Lyrics [63/200]

A perfect choice for a graduation ceremony chorus is “The Things That Don’t Change.” It was created by Tomoko Yamazaki, who has been active both as a teacher and as a songwriter-composer.

The beautifully gentle piano melody is very soothing and brings a warm breeze to the day of parting that is a graduation ceremony.

The song expresses the feeling that the precious friends and teachers we met at school, the many memories we share, and the strong bonds we formed will continue to shine within me unchanged, even if we end up far apart.

Let’s sing it with gratitude for having met and for having spent the same time together!

Thank you to you.Mari Nakayama

Choral piece “Thank You to You” Lyrics and music by Mari Nakayama

“Thank You to You” is a song that lets you express gratitude to all the people who have supported you.

It was created by Mari Nakayama, the songwriter and composer known for works like “Smile Again.” The lyrics convey heartfelt thanks for classmates and teachers at school, and above all for mom and dad, whose constant presence gives you the strength to face each day.

Even if it’s hard to express your gratitude honestly in everyday life, the power of song—and singing together with your friends—makes it okay! Think of the people you want to thank, and sing with all your heart.

365 Days’ Paper AirplaneAKB48

Paper Airplane of 365 Days (Children’s Chorus)

This is a song that was used as the theme for the NHK morning drama series “Asa ga Kita” and became a hit.

It was included as a coupling track on AKB48’s 42nd single, “Kuchibiru ni Be My Baby.” Rather than the typical upbeat idol tune, it can be described as a message song that suits a cheerful singing voice.

Let’s all join hands and sing together.

This is a heartwarming choral piece by Mimasu, known for music themed around space and the stars.

Green GreenMakku Gaiyā Supākusu

Green Green - Minna no Uta

With its easy-to-sing melody, this song is popular among elementary school children.

However, contrary to its cheerful tune, the lyrics are sad.

The story is about a father who taught important lessons departing on a journey.

One can picture a brave young boy holding back his tears in order to uphold the important things his father taught him.

The title phrase “Green, Green” is inserted in every verse, which makes the sadness even more poignant.

My BalladMatsui Takao

My Ballad (Mixed Chorus in Three Parts)

It’s one of the classic choral pieces.

The song was written and composed by Takao Matsui, a lyricist and composer from Tokyo.

Its crisp melodic line feels great to sing.

The lyrics, which encourage us by saying that as long as we sing with our friends, we’ll be okay no matter what, are uplifting.

Another charm is its grand worldview—the desire to deliver love to the whole world.

Chorus is something shaped together by classmates and friends.

Like this song, we want to unite our hearts, become one, and deliver our voices—and our feelings—to those who are listening.
