If I could become someone's heartYurii Canon
An emotional Vocaloid song that can serve as a guidepost in life.
It’s a track by Yuri Cannon, a Vocaloid producer who also runs the music project Tsukuyomi, released in 2018.
A high-energy rock tune, its melodious vocal work lingers in your ears.
GUMI’s powerful singing fits the piece perfectly.

Zamzaparticles (te-ni-wo-ha)

Hatsune Miku.
Composed by the Vocaloid producer Teniwoha, also known for creating “Villain,” it was released in April 2023.
Its appeal lies in a rhythmic yet shadowy sound arrangement.
The lyrics, themed around “pain,” are somewhat eerie and somewhat heartrending.
The title “Zamza” refers to the name of the protagonist in the world-famous novel The Metamorphosis.
So if you read the novel, you’ll gain an even deeper understanding of the song.

The track’s light, techno-pop-and-electronica-infused sound and snappy melodies leave a strong impression.
Lyrically, it vividly captures the “now,” in which people pile on lies in search of others’ approval, striking deeply at our hearts.
It’s a Vocaloid song that can prompt us to reflect on how we live.
