[Hatsune Miku] Instead of Goodbye, a Bouquet [Original]

This is a song sung slowly to a gentle piano accompaniment.

The singer looks back on a joyful past romance and tries to take a step forward.

Because the melody is calm and understated, the lyrics stand out even more, resulting in something that truly resonates with the heart.

Order-Made is filled with warm messages that offer hints for living into tomorrow.

Created in 2022 by Vocaloid producer Tota Kasamura, known for songs themed around youth, it features a collaboration of many Vocaloids, with choral work that highlights their uniquely distinctive voices.

Its gentle words, reaching out to the worries and anxieties everyone feels, will give you courage.

It’s a ballad with a band performance enriched by vibrant strings.

Please lend an ear to the warm sound brimming with the Vocaloids’ heartfelt sentiments.

from Y to YJimii Samu P

Hatsune Miku from Y to Y

This is a breakup song that conveys lingering feelings, sung about someone precious who has gone away.

It’s one of JimmySamuP’s signature tracks, released in 2009.

The band sound, which also carries a light touch, seems to deliver the bittersweet yet forward-looking emotions woven into the song.

[Hatsune Miku Append DARK] Heart Rate #0822 [Original Song]

It’s said to be a song created around the theme of “living.” It’s also said to be a track Butterfly P wrote and dedicated to his girlfriend of one year.

Please give it a listen while thinking of someone like that in your own life.

It might be nice to give it as a present to that person, too.

DECO*27 – Coward Mont Blanc feat. GUMI

When it comes to GUMI songs, this is the one! I’m sure many Vocaloid fans would agree.

This track, created by the Vocaloid producer DECO*27—who has also written many songs for famous artists—was released in 2010.

The lyrics candidly portray the protagonist’s emotional weakness: even though they were supposed to love that person, at some point they lost sight of their true feelings.

You can feel that pain coming through the music, and it tightens your chest.

There’s also a novel adaptation, which I highly recommend checking out as well.

as long as (I/you/they) live; if only (one) livesKasamura Tōta

As long as I live / feat. Fukase

Tota Kasamura, who has worked on many piano ballads.

One of his pieces that’s drawing attention for its powerful message is “Ikite-sae.” It portrays the loss of self-esteem through repeated failures, yet its lyrics ultimately tell you that as long as you’re alive, you’ll be okay.

Combined with Fukase’s gentle voice, it really stirs the heart.

Another appeal is that it’s packed with phrases that make you want to burst into tears.

Even those who don’t usually cry when listening to music will surely be moved to tears.

It’s a bittersweet yet warm, moving song that flickers like a small light deep in the heart.

Fluorescence by the music project Project Lumina was released in January 2025.

Set to an EDM style, the gentle tone of the piano permeates the soul, and Hatsune Miku’s straightforward vocals reach the depths of the chest.

The lyrics are crafted to awaken precious scenes slumbering in the listener’s memory.

On nights when you feel lonely or when you want to cleanse your heart with gentle tears, please give it a listen.
