Song of Melon Panyuppi
Anpan is filled with sweet red bean paste, so why doesn’t melon bread have any melon in it? Yuppi turned that bread mystery—something everyone wonders at least once—straight into a song.
Astonishingly, she wrote the lyrics and music and even played the guitar herself when she was just nine years old.
The humorous lyrics, born from a child’s pure perspective, make you nod and think, “So true!” It’s a highly relatable track.
Released as a single in October 2007, it became widely known after gaining attention on the radio.
This piece sets an everyday “why?” to a gentle melody.
It’s a heartwarming song to listen to when you feel like quietly musing over your thoughts while eating some bread.

It features a refreshing singing voice and melody.

You will die if you eat konjac jelly.hobo nichi P
The warning on konnyaku jelly packages that says “Children and the elderly should not eat this.” From that came Hobo Nichijo P’s song “Konnyaku Jelly Will Kill You,” which basically sings about banning everything that could possibly be dangerous.
It’s true that compared to regular jelly, konnyaku jelly is more elastic and can be a bit risky.
The lyrics go on to call for stopping the production of other dangerous things besides konnyaku as well.
The provocative lyrics can be overwhelming, but at the very end, it reveals the true message the song wanted to convey! Be sure to listen all the way through and really think about it!
I want to eat.Otoniriame
Otorii Ame is a music duo that became widely known after going viral on social media with “the introverted JK who admires the extroverted JK.” The two members are Akane, who writes, composes, and sings, and Akari, the track maker.
Their songs are packed with the world of cute girls and are popular among people their age.
Their track “Tabetai” portrays the inner conflict between the desire to eat and the wish to slim down and become cute—a struggle that might look adorable from the outside but feels very real to those experiencing it.
The lyrics also feature sweets like caramel, marshmallows, and strawberry candy, making it a song that draws you in and makes you crave a bite.
Explosive Smash Puddingkairiki bea
Have you ever flipped a certain famous pudding onto a plate, only for it to crumble on top—or worse, spill over the edge and turn into a total mess? “Explosive Pudding” by Kairiki Bear is a song about that very pudding tragedy.
When pudding—or any food, really—leaves the plate and ends up in a mangled heap somewhere else, you get that sudden, frozen-in-time sense of loss, don’t you? It’s a super relatable track that captures a sadness almost everyone has felt at least once.
Next time a similar disaster strikes, give this song a listen and calm your heart.
ChocorationTensions
This song by Tensions, a music duo formed by high school classmates Kei and Mei, tells a story centered around chocolate.
It expresses the bittersweetness of chocolate and love, and it really conveys the atmosphere of Valentine’s Day.
The airy, floaty lightness of the sound is striking, and it seems to highlight the light, cute quality of the vocals as well.
The song straightforwardly portrays the many shifting emotions of love, capturing both the growing feelings that deepen over time and the accompanying anxiety.
It conveys the sense of emotions that won’t quite come together—and yet, there’s also a charming resolve to express one’s feelings all the same.
Taiyaki Lullabynarushisu
Taiyaki Lullaby, written and composed by Narushisu and sung by Hatsune Miku, tells a gentle story centered on a 100-yen taiyaki.
Sharing one thing with someone—family, friends, a sweetheart—somehow feels more fun than just eating it by yourself, doesn’t it? Sure, having one each means you get to eat more, but the kindness and warmth of sharing is a value money can’t buy.
And it tends to make stronger memories than simply eating, too.
If you usually like to keep everything to yourself, try listening to this song and sharing a sweet with someone once in a while!
