Vocaloid Ballad Masterpieces [Tear-Jerking & Heart-Wrenching] (161–170)
Summer ticket stubMikito P
This is a work by Mikito-P, a creator who incorporates a lot of band sounds.
It’s included on the 2014 album “GOOD SCHOOL GIRL.” It’s the original song that later became “Sayonara wa Kienai,” which was created from a different perspective.
The piece portrays the end of a romance, overflowing with poignancy.
Perhaps its unique sense of loss is what makes it a masterpiece.
The guitar at the end is both cool and heart-throbbing.
Goodbye, Midnightrereriri
“Goodbye Midnight” is a collaborative song by rerulili and Moja! “Moja” is the name singer-songwriter Hiromi Oshi ba uses when performing on Nico Nico Douga.
For “Goodbye Midnight,” Moja wrote the lyrics and composed the music, while rerulili handled the arrangement.
The vocalist is the VOCALOID GUMI.
It’s a ballad that portrays the breakup of a mature romance, sung at a relaxed tempo and in a gentle musical style.
World’s End Evemeru
“What a beautiful song,” that was my first impression.
True to its title, “World’s End Eve,” it sings of the thought, “What if the world were to end tomorrow?” It’s not intense by any means, yet before you know it, your eyes and ears are drawn to it.
It’s a song that makes you reflect on everyday life and its happiness.
Noahyoake no wadachi
A ballad song by Yoake no Wadachi, known for their approachable guitar rock–based tracks.
Unlike their other songs, this one stands out with an exquisitely beautiful orchestral arrangement.
The lyrics explore how to accept one’s own weakness and how to face the things that are precious and not to be lost.
While the song carries a somewhat wistful atmosphere, the words in the lyrics also convey a sense of positivity and hope, and Hatsune Miku’s wonderfully gentle vocals resonate deeply in the heart.
To Where the Butterfly GoesShimari Ju
It’s a message-driven song that gives you the power to keep moving toward the future.
Created by Vocaloid producer Shima Risu and released in 2020, it features an impressive, emotional tone where a lively band sound is gently wrapped in the timbre of strings.
The solid, distinctive singing voice of Yuzuki Yukari really shines.
As mentioned earlier, the lyrics are another highlight, inspiring a positive mindset.
When you’re struggling to take that one last step, this song might be the one to save you.
