To my belovedGReeeeN

It was the theme song for Fuji TV’s Thursday drama “Oh, My Dad!!” in 2013.
In your thirties, a little more mature than in your twenties—getting married, starting a family, raising kids—you start to understand, little by little, what love really is.
That’s why these lyrics will resonate and move you to tears.
As you experience life’s ups and downs, you realize how important it is to be able to keep going because of someone’s presence.
It’s a moving song that makes you grateful—simple, but it lets you recognize the happiness of having someone important by your side.

A wonderfully cute song provided by Yojiro Noda of RADWIMPS.
First, give it a listen! Her uniquely tuned voice will bring you to tears.
Let this slightly youthful view of love remind you of that sweet, bittersweet flutter you’d almost forgotten from back then.
I want to hug you.Mr.Children

This song, included on Mr.Children’s second album “Kind of Love,” also drew attention when it was used as an insert song in the finale of the 1996 drama “Pure.” From Sakurai’s calm vocals and the lyrical content, you can take away a variety of messages.

A track from the 2004 album “Sol-fa.” It doesn’t try to make any particular statement; it simply captures ordinary scenes and the “now” of the self.
As you absentmindedly fall for the calmly sung melody, suddenly—wait, are those tears…? Recommended for anyone who wants to pause for a moment and take a look at themselves.

You’ve probably already been through one or two heartbreaking, painful, and frustrating breakups now that you’re an adult.
You might be thinking, “I’ll never meet someone I can care about this much again…” But don’t get so pessimistic! Being told that time will heal it doesn’t feel comforting, I know—but if you listen to this song, I’m sure it’ll make things at least a little easier.
It makes me want to cry.Urufuruzu

When no matter how hard you try it just doesn’t work out, or when something happens that truly shakes your soul, this is the kind of song you’ll want to hear.
It’s a classic by Ulfuls, one of Japan’s greatest rock bands.
Tortoise Matsumoto’s soulful vocals will shout out exactly how you feel.
Perfect for when you want to sink into your feelings a bit—highly recommended.
Give it a listen!

A track from their first album, Organic Plastic Music, released in 2002.
The vocals by Tomoko Nagashima will move your heart.
Even though it would be so much easier if you just forgot, you still can’t bring yourself to let go…! Heartbreak can be that painful, right? So don’t put on a brave face—listen to this song and have a good cry.
Okay?
