The lyrics, filled with nostalgia for a past that can never return yet carrying a resolve to open a new door and face the future, perfectly match the sentimental mood of autumn.
Listening to it while walking down a road at dusk might hit especially hard.

I hate it so much.Rain River
An emotionally charged rock number that deeply portrays a dark, closed-off state of mind, this work was released by Amagawa Yuki Sagara in March 2019.
With Hatsune Miku’s trembling vocals and a passionate band sound, it expresses the difficulties and contradictions faced by young people.
Feelings such as dissatisfaction with society and relationships, inner conflict, and self-denial come through and truly resonate.
It’s sure to strike a chord with those who feel anxiety or anguish about living in the present, especially teenagers.
At long last, you died.kowadori
“You Finally Died” portrays the raw emotions of losing someone dear right before your eyes.
Created in 2022 by the Vocaloid producer Kowadori, known for delivering theme-driven songs to listeners, it depicts a protagonist trapped in an unbearable reality—trying to act tough and pretend everything is fine.
The emotional vocals of Kafu, carried by a rhythmic arrangement, convey those feelings powerfully.
It’s a Vocaloid track that stirs the heart with its depiction of someone who keeps thinking about the person they cherish more than anyone else.

The songwriter and composer is DECO*27, who also gained attention for providing songs to Kou Shibasaki.
This is DECO*27’s first track using GUMI.
The lyrics depict a sweet yet bittersweet love.
The anime-style music video featuring an adorable GUMI is also a must-see.

A standard rock song by DECO*27, known for tracks like “Ai Kotoba” and “Yowamushi Montblanc,” that opens with a striking guitar riff.
The cool music video that syncs with the guitar solo in the interlude is a must-see.
It’s easy to sing at karaoke, and although some time has passed since its release, it remains a consistently popular track.
Cherry Blossom Rainhalyosy
One of the classic graduation songs.
While the song itself doesn’t have a backward-looking mood, its lyrics that evoke the farewell of graduation and its melancholy melody make it poignant to listen to.
It has also been adapted into a film.
I hope you’ll listen to an actual choral performance.
