[Recommended for teens] Songs to listen to when your heart is tired—songs you want to hear (31–40)
Tears-kun, good morning again today!ano
If you’re struggling with self-confidence and wondering, “Does my existence even have meaning…?”, here’s one song I highly recommend: ano’s ‘Good Morning Again, Mr.
Tears.’ Ano is truly a star of the Reiwa era—there’s hardly a day she isn’t on TV or radio as a talent and musician.
Her distinctive voice and effortless, natural vibe alone can help you breathe a little easier.
The lyrics, which can be read as saying ‘Because there’s music, no one is truly alone,’ are gentle on a heavy heart.
It’s as if ano herself, who helped write the lyrics, seeps through every single word.
Give this track a listen—you’ll surely find courage in it!
bookmarkHakubi
Hakubi, a three-piece band from Kyoto, released the song “Shiori” in 2021.
The gentle lyrics, sung with vocalist Katagiri’s clear, pure voice, soothe a weary heart.
When you live strictly with yourself, your heart inevitably tires easily.
A perfectionist mindset—thinking “I have to be this way”—only makes you suffer, yet when you’re doing your best to live, it’s easy to forget that.
“Shiori” is a song that helps loosen that taut tension in your heart.
That’s enough already.Fuji Kaze
Singer-songwriter Fujii Kaze, who had been posting piano performance videos since childhood and drawing attention for his exceptional technique.
Released in December 2019, this track later became a core piece of his debut album, HELP EVER HURT NEVER.
It features a sound defined by a minimalist, hip-hop-influenced beat interwoven with gospel-style choruses.
The lyrics, which step away from entanglements like competition and the desire for approval to free the self, gently resonate with hearts weary of the daily clamor.
Rather than resignation, it’s a song that offers a positive sense of release, embracing everything and moving forward.
Perfect Day310
Born from scenes of refreshing mornings and dusky twilights, this song gently portrays the special moments hidden in everyday life.
310’s crystal-clear vocals deliver a warm message of encouragement to everyone working hard each day.
The track has been available since January 2025 as the opening theme for the anime “I’m the Guild Receptionist, but I Don’t Like Overtime, So I’m Going to Solo the Boss.” Composed by Ryutaro Fujinaga of Elements Garden, the piece beautifully blends a driving rock sound with a pure, graceful melody, tenderly resonating with listeners.
It’s the perfect song for when you’re worn out from work or need energy for tomorrow.
For those giving their all every day, it’s sure to bring comfort and courage.
To my gentle youNornis
Nornis delivers a ballad that wraps you in warm kindness.
Its melody gently nestles close to the heart, highlighted by the crystal-clear harmonies of Tokoyami Toko and Machita Chima.
The song tenderly sings of the importance of supporting one another and the preciousness of someone who accepts your feelings just as they are.
Released digitally in February 2025, the piece was brought to life with the members’ involvement from the conceptual stage.
On March 8, they also performed it with an orchestra at Omiya Sonic City’s Main Hall.
It’s a song to share when you want to encourage someone who gives their all every day, or for those whose hearts feel tired.
