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.

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.

A song released in 2012.
Once you start working, once you hit your thirties, you can’t be as proactive as you were back in your school days, and it’s a little heartbreaking, isn’t it? You feel oddly self-conscious.
Shy.
Even though age has nothing to do with love…
right? This song sings those feelings so honestly and straightforwardly that it slips gently into your heart and brings you to tears.
miwa’s songs are straightforward and feel great.
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!
It’s better to be offbeat.Elefanto Kashimashi
A single released in 2012.
It’s also known as the theme song for the film “The Floating Castle.” The content is flawless.
I think probably only he could have written it.
It grabs you right from the start.
It’s neither a heartbreak song nor a sentimental “thanks, Mom” kind of tearjerker, but if you’re an adult, you’ll surely get it.
