Stay by my side.Ketsumeishi
Ketsumeishi often sings bittersweet songs, and this is one of their most popular.
It’s a moving love song that expresses the feeling of wanting to stay with someone precious forever.
The rap by Taizo and Ryo that comes in near the end of the track is especially captivating.
tear(s)GENERATIONS from EXILE TRIBE
The piano solo leads into the intro, the vocal comes in on the first verse (A-melo), then it transitions in the pre-chorus (B-melo), building enjoyable anticipation for the chorus.
It might be classic Japanese pop.
I think the second verse will go by in a similar way.
And while we’re at it, how about some karaoke?

Saucy Dog is a three-piece band with two men and one woman.
It’s a love song that feels like he’s singing about a girlfriend he broke up with and who’s now far away.
The vocalist’s pleasant tone and the bittersweet lyrics make it a tearjerker, and when the female chorus comes in, another wave of tears hits!
