Singer-songwriter Hana Sekitori has gained popularity for her deeply affecting musicality.

The vocal line is very simple, making it an easy song to sing as well.

My Godhaiiro nemuri

It features Gekiyaku’s raspy, rolled-R vocal style.

The lyrics, themed around dependence and devotion, reflect the sense of loneliness in modern society and pierce straight to the heart.

For those struggling with romantic troubles, it may resonate especially strongly.

A gem of a ballad that expresses gratitude to a loved one, woven together with a heartwarming melody.

Tani Yuuki’s gentle yet powerful vocals resonate deeply, embracing the complex emotions we all carry.

Featured on the album “HOMETOWN,” released in May 2024, the song is also accompanied by a well-received music video that depicts a warm, family-themed story.

It’s a perfect track for moments when you want to convey your feelings to someone important, or for occasions like graduation ceremonies and farewell gatherings where you wish to express gratitude.

Please understand me.aimyon

“Wakatte Kureyo” is one of Aimyon’s earliest songs, included on her first indie mini-album “tamago,” released in 2015.

The lyrics from a male perspective are striking, and apparently Aimyon actually wrote this song in her mid-teens.

With a subtly Japanese-flavored piano intro, the song has a distinctly Aimyon, 2000s-style medium-tempo ballad vibe, and it’s amazing to think she wrote it as a teenager—her exceptional talent as a singer-songwriter really shines.

Beyond the singable melody line, the overall pitch sits on the lower side, so a man with a higher voice could likely sing it in the original key.

This standout release from December 2022 perfectly blends eye-popping technical playing with a deeply emotional soundscape.

Its array of virtuosic techniques—octave playing, sweep picking, full picking, and more—makes it a must-hear for guitarists.

The exhilarating, fast-paced phrases fuse seamlessly with melodious arrangements, showcasing the band’s full capabilities.

The track was used as the insert song that closes episode 12 of the anime Bocchi the Rock!, heightening the show’s climax.

It also appears in the compilation films Bocchi the Rock! Re: and Re:Re:, and is included on the album Kessoku Band.

Highly recommended for anyone eager to tackle advanced guitar performance or captivated by technical rock sounds.
