syudou’s Recommended Songs: Dark, Poisonous, Enchanting Melodies (11–20)

Even when we say “cheer-up songs,” they come in many forms.

I imagine many people are drawn not only to brightness, but also to melodies with a bittersweet realism or a bit of bite.

If that’s you, this track comes highly recommended.

While squarely confronting self-doubt and the pain of unseen effort, it carries a theme that powerfully pushes forward those who keep moving ahead anyway.

Released in October 2024, it was chosen as the ending theme for the anime Majirumie Inc.

The song reflects syudou’s own experiences from his days as a company employee, which gives it tremendous credibility.

If you find your heart close to breaking in everyday life yet still grit your teeth and keep going, be sure to give it a listen.

This is a beautiful song by syudou, who has gained widespread popularity in living rooms across the country.

Released in April 2024, the track features the star-studded lineup including RYOKI from BE:FIRST.

With a catchy melody and richly colored sound, the lyrics resonate powerfully, as if giving you a strong push forward.

Chosen as the theme song for TBS’s 2024 professional baseball broadcasts, those who watched the games avidly probably heard it many times.

I think it’s a song that supports not just baseball, but everyone striving in sports!

a prayer to the gods; relying on divine interventionsyudou

Syudou, also known for working on Ado’s “Usseewa.” This work centers on the theme of “yearning for happiness,” affirming the figure of someone who keeps facing forward while carrying shame and gritty desires.

While seeking salvation from a god yet ultimately trying to carve out their fate by their own power, that paradoxical human strength is depicted through word choices that are quintessentially Syudou—combining aggression with delicacy.

The song is set for release in July 2025 and will serve as the opening theme for the TV anime The Banned Mole.

When you’re up against a reality that won’t go your way and fed up with your own weakness, listening to it might make you feel as if a weight has been lifted from your shoulders.

It’s a warm, gentle love song filled with affection.

If you listen closely, it’s sure to move you.

The wintry melody, wonderful lyrics, and charming vocals come together to create an exceptionally beautiful track.

Atashisyudou

Syudou’s 2023 track “Atashi” is a song that conveys the struggle of living true to yourself.

There are times when you think it’s enough to live unbound, without conforming to others—surrounding yourself with what you love and being free on your own.

But when someone enters that life, or when the notion of being “normal” creeps in, the things that make you who you are start to crumble bit by bit.

Even so, you can feel a kind of tenacity—an insistence on continuing to live authentically, even if it means struggling—coming through both the lyrics and the prickly melody.

It’s a recommended song for those moments when you’re fed up with the stifling environment around you.

Gingiraginsyudou

Singer-songwriter syudou, who began his career as a Vocaloid producer and is also known for working on Ado’s “Usseewa.” His digital single “Gingiragin” is an addictive track featuring hysteric synths riding on a bouncy shuffle beat.

syudou’s characteristically cynical and aggressive message creates a perfect contrast with the complex melodies and arrangements.

It’s a catchy number that makes it clear why he’s drawing attention as a next-generation composer.

Have you listened to DREAMERS’ album Ryugu-jo? I’d like to introduce one of the tracks from it, “Yacchatta wa ne.” It’s a song created by one of the members, syudou.

Sung with a girlish touch, it portrays the pain of someone in love and the growing sense of emptiness that comes with adulthood.

While the themes are heavy, it delivers them with humor by repeating the title phrase.

Also, pay attention to how it uses rhyme and lands on a neat punchline.
