LemonYonezu Kenshi
When you’ve lived for over 20 years, you start to experience more breakups with partners and the deaths of people close to you.
In times like that, I want you to listen to Kenshi Yonezu’s “Lemon.” It’s a ballad themed around parting, and as you listen, tears naturally begin to fall.
Eine KleineYonezu Kenshi
Kenshi Yonezu is selling with extraordinary momentum.
He has quite a few tear-jerking songs, and “Eine Kleine” is one of them.
It’s a love song likely sung from a woman’s perspective, but depending on the listener, it might also sound like it’s from a man.
The build-up toward the chorus loosens the tear ducts!
MARCHAme no Parēdo
As the title suggests, it’s a song for March.
The lyrics are filled with spring farewells, the encounters that lie ahead, and the dilemma of not wanting to grow up.
It’s a song that tightens your chest with emotions that only arise when you’re young and the difficulty of facing them.
weak insectBaba Toshihide
A Japanese singer-songwriter who began a solo career in ’93.
This song, especially when watched together with its music video, truly brings you to tears.
It tells of a man who faces many hardships—bullying, work troubles, even false accusations—and though he feels like running away time and again, he resolves to live earnestly with the support of his family.
It’s a song that makes you feel you can keep going no matter how tough things get.
Alone World10-FEET
It was also the opening theme song for the 2017 drama “Byplayers,” which drew attention by shining a spotlight on six standout character actors.
It’s the kind of song you want to listen to when you don’t know where to direct feelings that can’t be helped, or when you’re facing doubts and inner conflict.
