The falsetto in the chorus also leaves a poignant impression.
It’s a song by a skilled rock band that beautifully colors the winter season.
White LoversKuwata Keisuke
A song that’s perfect not only for daytime but also for night skiing and snowboarding is Keisuke Kuwata’s “Shiroi Koibitotachi” (White Lovers).
Released in 2001, this track is also widely loved as a Christmas song.
Its title was taken from the 1968 French film “Les Amants de la neige” (released in Japan as “Shiroi Koibitotachi”).
The lyrics depict poignant scenes that reminisce about a past winter romance.
Kuwata’s husky voice heightens the sense of longing, yet it also conveys a warmth that feels like smiling at memories that are more than just bittersweet.
You might find it nice to ski while thinking, “I had a love like that once,” too.
SnowdomeKimura Kaera
Set against a pure white snowy landscape, Kaela Kimura’s “Snowdome” feels perfect for enjoying winter sports at a leisurely pace.
Released in 2007, the song was featured in JR East’s “JR SKISKI” commercial, in which Kaela herself appeared.
It’s a slightly bittersweet number that captures a fleeting wish: you can’t be with the person you once shared those beautiful snowy views with, but maybe someday you’ll see them together again.
With its relaxed tempo, even those not used to winter sports can take it slow and savor the snow with this track.
HEROMr.Children
Mr.Children’s “HERO” features a rhythm that feels like the sound of falling snow.
Released in 2002, the song’s lyrics, written from a parent’s perspective, stem from Kazutoshi Sakurai’s question: “What is a true hero?” Rather than becoming a grand hero with great power who sometimes does dirty work, he expresses the desire to be the kind of hero who can put the most important person right in front of him first and protect them.
It’s a feeling that resonates not only with parents, but with anyone who has someone they want to protect.
How about taking it along on a ski trip with someone special?
