LindaTakeuchi Mariya
When it comes to songs to dedicate to a friend who’s found happiness, you can’t leave out Ann Lewis’s “Linda.” It’s said that Mariya Takeuchi, a friend of Ann’s, wrote the song for her when her marriage to Masahiro Kuwana was decided.
Takeuchi also recorded a self-cover on her 1981 album “PORTRAIT.” The lyrics, addressed to a friend who has experienced many romances and finally met her destined partner, really warm your heart when you listen.
Be sure to sing it for the bride, who’s at the peak of her happiness at the wedding!

This song is truly the perfect track to give to a friend at their wedding! Within its gentle, serene ballad that carries a sense of sanctity, it holds the wish to celebrate the couple’s new beginning and the desire to keep watching over them as a friend from here on.
It’s a song I’d love to see a woman dedicate to her best friend, the bride.
Memories the two of you share will come flooding back, and I’m sure you’ll both be moved to tears.
If you play a surprise memory video of the two of you and sing this song along with it, there’s no doubt it will be deeply moving!
Song of a Friendyuzu
A song woven around the theme of friendship, brimming with kindness and warmth.
Released in September 1999 as the commercial song for Ezaki Glico’s “Pocky Chocolate,” it became a major hit for Yuzu and is also included on their album Yuzuen.
Innocent memories with a friend, the tenderness of caring about each other’s lives, and the awareness of what changes and what remains constant over time are all carefully interlaced.
With its gentle acoustic guitar tones and Yuzu’s signature warm harmonies that resonate in the heart, this piece is perfect for gifting to a cherished friend at a wedding, and for conveying the joy of celebrating the couple’s new life together as part of their circle.
wedding songFujifaburikku
This is a wedding song included on the album “MUSIC,” which the remaining members completed from songs left behind by Masahiko Shimura, the former vocalist of Fujifabric.
There’s also a story that Shimura secretly wrote it for a staff member who was getting married, and you can feel the unadorned spirit of celebration.
The sound is simple, and the lyrics are composed of plain, unembellished words, so the straightforward feeling of blessing comes through, even if a bit clumsily.
It’s a warm song that teaches us there’s no need for roundabout words at a celebration—what matters are honest words infused with genuine emotion.
Dear My FriendLittle Glee Monster feat. Pentatonix
They’re getting married and starting a new life, but that doesn’t mean everything will go perfectly.
Sometimes they’ll fight and feel down.
This is a gentle message song meant to make you think, “It’s okay—because that person is on my side.” It’s a collaboration between the girls’ vocal group Little Glee Monster and the a cappella group Pentatonix, released in 2020.
The smooth, pleasant choral work is truly wonderful.
CheersNagabuchi Tsuyoshi
One of Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi’s signature songs from when he could still easily be called a young man.
The muscular Nagabuchi of today is great, but the slightly lanky, long-haired Nagabuchi had a certain melancholy and was cool in his own way.
Back in the Showa era, when there weren’t as many graduation songs as there are now, everyone sang this at their graduation ceremonies.
Of course, it was also a staple at weddings.
Maybe the reason we still want to hear it, even as a classic, is because of its timeless appeal.
It’s a song that suits any new beginning in life, and if you can play guitar, I’d love for you to perform it.
Congratulationsmihimaru GT
The ballad “Omedetou,” brimming with kindness like a spring breeze.
It’s a song specially written by mihimaru GT for the film “Crayon Shin-chan: Super-Dimensional! The Storm Called My Bride.” With its warmly enveloping mid-tempo groove and lyrics that are gentle yet powerful, it feels as if it softly sends off everyone embarking on a new chapter.
