This song “Ariga-juujuu” sung by Yo Hitoto.

It’s a song that conveys the feeling of gratitude—“thank you”—while weaving in childhood memories and the honest feelings you had back then, like, “This is how I really felt.” Combined with Yo Hitoto’s vocal prowess, it really tugs at the heart.

There are childhood memories you remember, but your father or mother might not.

This is a song to send to parents like that, and it’s a wonderful choice for expressing gratitude at events like weddings.

cosmos (flower)Yamaguchi Momoe

Cosmos - Momoe Yamaguchi - Cosmos

Momoe Yamaguchi’s popular song “Akizakura (Cosmos)” is sung from the perspective of a daughter who is about to get married, thinking of her mother.

It can be a bit difficult for women who haven’t married yet to fully understand, but the presence of a “mother” is profoundly significant for women—and you feel it even more once you become a mother yourself.

The lyrics evoke an image of a mother, reminiscing about her daughter’s childhood, feeling a touch of loneliness as she sends her off.

While she’s happy that her daughter has grown into an independent adult, she must also feel very lonely.

It’s a song that fills you with gratitude for the mother who has loved and supported you all this time.

Theme song from 'A Chorus from Heaven' – 'Arigatou' PV

Stereopony’s “Arigatou” is a tender yet heartrending song that expresses gratitude to someone you can no longer meet.

Not just words of thanks—precious feelings need to be spoken while you still can, because you never know when you might no longer be able to say them face-to-face.

That’s why, even if it feels embarrassing or hard to put into words, it’s best to express your gratitude in the moment.
