I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

This time, we’re introducing a collection of poignant, heart-piercing Vocaloid songs.

From love-themed tracks to ones that embrace feelings of loneliness, as well as deeply moving pieces, we’ve picked selections from many genres—so if you look, you’re sure to find a song that resonates with your heart.

These are all perfect for when you want to have a good cry or face your worries head-on.

Take your time to savor the story woven into each track, and be sure to check them out.

Because VOCALOID is a machine, its voice inevitably sounds somewhat mechanical.

However, Miku’s singing in this song has a very natural tone, and especially at the beginning, it’s so convincing that you might believe it’s a human singing.

Bathtub and Neon Tetra REISAI

There’s a kind of heartache that exists precisely because you care, isn’t there? This is a song by REISAI, a music unit formed by Aizen Sakana and Yopi, released in 2021.

It’s a stylish Vocaloid track built around a four-on-the-floor rhythm.

The noisy timbre of flower’s vocals is striking, and it feels like the protagonist’s emotions ride along with the arrangement.

The bass and guitar phrases in the interlude that stray far from the rhythm are really cool.

If you’re in the mood for high-sense, sophisticated music, don’t miss this one!
