[Today’s Energy Song] A curated selection of high-powered, high-tension tracks! (21–30)
strollInoue Azumi
It was first released in October 1987 as an image song for the film My Neighbor Totoro.
The following year, it appears to have been re-released as the film’s main theme (opening theme).
Walking energizes the body and stimulates brain activity.
It’s a lively song, and the person who sings it is lively too.
grandchildŌizumi Itsurō
Isn’t the adorable little child’s voice at the beginning irresistible for those who have grandchildren? Even if you don’t, it’s still a very cute child’s voice.
I’ve never had grandchildren myself, so it’s hard to vividly imagine just how adorable they are, but this is a lively song for grandpa and grandma.
RirurariruhaKimura Kaera
This is an uplifting track whose positive message and light, lively melody will make your heart dance.
Kaela Kimura’s pure and energetic vocals give listeners courage.
Released in March 2005, the song was also used in a Vodafone (now SoftBank Mobile) commercial and became a major hit.
Boasting the highest sales of Kimura’s career, it’s said to be a song she created during a particularly busy time.
It’s recommended for moments when you want to forget the daily rush and look ahead, or when you’re ready to take a new step forward.
If you play it in the morning, it’s sure to kick-start an active day.
365 Steps MarchSuizenji Kiyoko
No matter who listens to it, I don’t think anyone would say this song isn’t upbeat.
I’ve heard that Kiyoko Suizenji, nicknamed “Cheetah,” who sings it, has a very lively personality.
Released in 1968, the song became a million-seller.
Apparently, she initially refused to sing it.
Even so, she performs it energetically.
Happy BirthdayNishino Kana
Just listening to it will put a smile on your face—this is a high-energy track brimming with positivity.
Kana Nishino’s clear, translucent vocals resonate deep in the heart.
Released in May 2014, this piece is a bright, warm message song themed around birthdays.
The lyrics convey heartfelt gratitude, like “I’m truly glad I met you.” It’s perfect not only for a loved one’s birthday, but also for fun times with friends or whenever you need a lift in everyday life.
The more you listen, the more this song lets you feel the joy and happiness of life.
Anpanman’s Marchdoriimingu
When it comes to energetic Japanese heroes that little kids adore, it has to be this one (though he might not be human): Anpanman, created by Takashi Yanase.
Released in 1998 as Dreaming’s debut single, with lyrics by Takashi Yanase and music by Takashi Miki.
It’s included together with “Yūki Rinrin.” Full of pep—just right.
Tell Your World
This song is a track from a mini-album released in 2012.
It was also produced as the commercial song for the Google Chrome Global Campaign that started in 2011, so some of you may find it familiar.
Listening to its refreshing melody can really lift your spirits.
