Shota Shimizu’s iconic and popular songs (11–20)
FridayShimizu Shota
This is a song created in 2018 under the Suntory Beer “The Premium Malt’s” brand with the theme of “Let’s drink beer on Premium Friday.” It’s a track that balances tropical and chill vibes, maintaining a golden ratio.
A melody instead of a bouquetShimizu Shota
A warm ballad that’s quintessentially Shota Shimizu.
Its melody, carried by his assured vocal skill, resonates deep in the heart.
This romantic number is about giving the person you love a gift—the thing you cherish most: your “song.” It sets a gently intimate mood.
416Shimizu Shota
A bittersweet number that captures the feelings of a man with an unrequited crush.
The moment you fall in love is blissful, but when things don’t go well, the painful moments start to pile up.
In this song, the protagonist is a shy man who lacks confidence and can’t bring himself to confess his feelings to the girl he likes.
The music video shows the two on a date, but she fiddles with her phone and the conversation doesn’t take off; the man, who started with a smile, gradually looks more and more downcast…
It’s a ballad filled with the bittersweet emotions anyone in love has felt at least once.
Many listeners will probably relate.
PrincessShimizu Shota
This song expresses the feelings of a man who can’t forget his former lover, and it’s included on Shota Shimizu’s mini-album “period,” released in November 2020.
The meanings of the aster’s flower language that appear in the lyrics are “recollection,” “I won’t forget you,” and “thinking of someone far away.” With the title being “Princess,” you can feel that this man still cherishes his former lover.
If this song had an after-story, I can’t help but hope it would lead to a happy ending.
Side DishShimizu Shota
A master of R&B weaves a tale of forbidden love.
This track from Shota Shimizu brims with deep emotion and inner conflict.
With its refined melody and comfortable groove, it portrays lingering attachments and complex feelings from past romances and relationships.
Included on the July 2021 album “HOPE,” it earned high praise from fans.
Later, in May 2023, a lyric video featuring actress Ryoka Orita was released, capturing many hearts with its moving lyrics and Shimizu’s delicate vocals.
Highly recommended for those experiencing the pain of love or looking to let their emotions out.
Because of youShimizu Shota
When I listened to this song, I thought the lyrics were amazing.
Even if we hurt each other, being able to say with confidence that we’re proud of it—and that no matter how far apart we are, my feelings won’t change—was really striking.
The melody feels a bit slow, and at first I wondered if it was a dark song, but if you listen closely, the lyrics are beautiful.
I think it’s a track that lyric-focused listeners will really like.

SorryShimizu Shota
As for the characteristics of modern Japanese male R&B singers, while they may not boast the superhuman power and range of their American counterparts, they tend to focus on softer vocal expression and deliver songs that feel approachable to the general listener—and I think Shota Matsuda is one of them.
His slightly androgynous, gentle voice will surely capture the hearts of many.
Of course, his masterful use of mixed voice—a must-have skill for singers in this genre today—and his clean vocal production are impeccable.
On top of that, depending on the song, he actively incorporates pitch-correction techniques, mixing in that intentionally ‘cherpy’ autotune-like effect, which is a very on-trend touch.
