I’d rather die.Fuji Kaze
This is a song by Fujii Kaze that expresses an extreme sentiment—preferring death over parting from the one you love.
Despite its light, jazz- and R&B-infused sound that doesn’t feel gloomy, don’t you sense a touch of darkness for a straightforward love song in the lyrics that depict an excessive obsession with the other person? It’s filled with lingering regret about not wanting to suffer remorse after losing them, suggesting that the feeling of love for the other person has become distorted.
The song is included on the album “HELP EVER HURT NEVER,” released in May 2020, and it was performed on a TV program in December 2022.
It’s a track I’d recommend to anyone whose feelings for someone have reached a peak and who is feeling suffocated.
ShowtimeNEW!Amuro Namie
This is a song written as the theme for the TBS Tuesday drama “Princess of the Prison,” which aired in the October 2017 cour.
It’s an up-tempo, glamorous pop song, featuring lyrics that liken the drama’s “revenge plan” to a showtime.
Although the track itself is short at around three minutes, it feels quite substantial.
It seems perfect to pick at karaoke when you want to get pumped up.
The overall vocal range is G#3–D5.
It’s basically in a range you can sing in chest voice, but there’s a part at the end of the chorus that should be sung lightly in what sounds like falsetto, so relaxation is essential.
Ride the rhythm and project your voice clearly.

Come to the late-night radio showNEW!TOKOTOKO
A pleasantly soothing pop-rock number that immerses you in the night’s atmosphere.
Created by TOKOTOKO and released in March 2026, this piece was produced as the official demo song for “Synthesizer V 2 AI Chifuyu Hanakuma.” Its light, band-driven sound—centered on piano and drums—is gently complemented by Chifuyu Hanakuma’s calm vocals.
The lyrics, themed around late-night radio, are also appealing for their warm word choices.
It’s a song that stays close to the listener’s heart, one you’ll want to quietly listen to on sleepless nights.
HappinessNEW!back number
A back number ballad that tightens your chest with overwhelming poignancy.
It delicately depicts the pain of unrequited love, where the closeness of being right next to someone only makes them feel farther away.
Knowing there’s someone else in their heart, you still force a smile—some listeners may find themselves in tears at that image.
Included on the single “Hanabira,” released in April 2011, and later featured on the October album “Superstar,” this song offers gentle, beautiful tones to those burdened with feelings they can’t express or hearts troubled by unattainable love.
Why not listen to it on a night when you just want to cry your heart out?
Weekly Strange Rain ForecastNEW!Wakui
This work likens the ominous mood of the information society and the herd mentality on the internet to extreme weather.
It was released in March 2024 by the Vocaloid producer, Waku-i.
The contrasting voices of KAITO and Hatsune Miku intertwine, three-dimensionally portraying the duality of introspection and agitation.
With a word-dense, fast-paced melody that lingers in the ear, it’s fairly challenging to sing.
But precisely for that reason, it may be all the more rewarding.
