A distant scentYO-KING
A solo work by YO-KING of Magokoro Brothers, it gained attention as the second opening theme for the anime Gintama.
Its warm sound, infused with folk and rock elements, evokes a sense of nostalgia and gentle melancholy.
Released as a single in January 2007 and also included on the album Hibi to Pops, this piece is perfect for moments when you feel like reflecting—say, on your way home at dusk—letting the tender vocals slowly seep into your heart.
tigerHanbaato Hanbaato
Set to a gentle acoustic sound, this song gives voice to the inner conflicts buried deep within the heart.
Its theme centers on the frustration of wanting to be strong but failing to become so, and a profound sense of loneliness.
In contrast to its tender melody, the protagonist remains frozen and pitifully sulking, a portrayal that resonates deeply with listeners.
The track was originally included on the November 2010 album “Sasurai-ki.” It was re-recorded in 2018 for the album “FOLK 2,” drawing attention as comedian Naoki Matayoshi appeared in its music video.
It’s a song you’ll want to listen to quietly when you’re struggling with the gap between ideals and reality and feeling down.
Which one will you choose?hiroki
“Hey, which will you choose?” This Vocaloid track forces the ultimate decision.
It’s a song by Vocaloid producer hiroki., released in August 2025.
In just about one minute, the adorable vocals of Hatsune Miku and Kasane Teto burst forth in a highly addictive dance tune.
You’ll get hooked by the relentless rhythm and the melody that, once you hear it, loops in your head.
One more thing: if you want to enjoy every last detail of this work, be sure to turn on YouTube’s subtitles!
Tot MusicaAdo
Ado’s masterpiece “Tot Musica.” This work is crafted as a hard rock track with elements reminiscent of gothic rock and gothic metal, and it makes extensive use of full-fledged shouts in the chorus.
As was the case with early Ado herself, forced shouting can sound contrived.
Therefore, to perform this song well, you need to master shouts that arise naturally as an extension of a powerful voice, like Ado’s current style.
If you can produce natural shouts, definitely give it a try.

bullfighterChar
Among blues songs with a slightly pop feel, there’s “Matador.” It’s a track released by the singer-songwriter Char.
In the first half, set to a mid-tempo sound, the lyrics liken a heartbroken man to a matador.
That section carries a mood close to Japanese kayōkyoku, but in the latter half the song modulates and shifts into a tougher, weightier blues.
The arrangement matches this change, bringing the man’s sorrow into sharper focus.
It’s great both for quiet, reflective moments and for when you want to get fired up.
Tokyo Bus GirlShodai Koromubia Rōzu
Columbia Rose (the first) and her song “Tokyo no Bus Girl” is an appealing piece with upbeat lyrics and a bright mood, depicting the daily life and dreams of a Hato Bus tour guide.
It was released in October 1957 and adapted into a popular song film the following July.
Through the then-unusual occupation of a female bus guide, it vividly portrays a forward-looking life filled with dreams and hope.
The image of a bus girl who lives each day with energy while also facing various dramas—such as heartbreak—may evoke memories of youth for older listeners.
It’s lovely to let old stories bloom while listening to this nostalgic tune.
Twinkle HeartKimura Yuki

It brims with the excitement of a Christmas-season date and the beauty of those special moments shared by just two people.
Released in December 2000 as her eighth single, it features a distinctive sound that fuses J-pop with Euro house, crafted into an enticing track under the production of Daisuke Asakura.
