Before winter comeskami fuusen

Before winter comes — Papper Balloon (Kamifūsen)

Released in 1977 by the folk duo Kamifusen, the song sold 450,000 copies and became their biggest hit.

It expresses the feeling of being unable to forget a former lover, has been included in school music textbooks, and is still widely sung today as a choral standard.

54321Cream

CREAM – 54321 [Short Version]

A song that sings of a burning love, unable to contain the surge of emotion upon meeting that fated person who makes you think, “I don’t need anyone but you.” When you’re in love, you can’t help but think only about the one you like, getting so absorbed you lose sight of everything else, right? I want people who are in the very midst of those feelings right now to listen.

The sub-heavy low end feels great, and I’ve even heard people say it’s perfect for a nighttime drive.

A Thawing KissBAK

BAK – Thawing Snow Kiss (Audio)

A winter song that portrays a bittersweet love, where both know there’s no future for their relationship.

Released as a single in December 2023, it was a collaborative production by BAK and the creator unit CHIMERAZ.

BAK’s emotional vocals and the lyrics set in a snow-covered city leave a strong impression.

The premonition of parting and the tangle of complex emotions are conveyed through a gentle melody.

It’s the perfect track to listen to on a winter night while reminiscing about past loves.

Young Skinny – Winter Ends Again [Official Music Video]

A bittersweet song by Young Skinny that overlaps the end of winter with heartbreak.

It delicately portrays the feelings of a protagonist who can’t forget their ex even after being dumped.

They tell themselves, “It’s not like I was dependent on you,” yet still find themselves passing by their former lover’s place.

Many of us have probably experienced something like that.

The track is included on the mini album “If I have to act, I’d rather be myself” released in December 2021, and it lets you fully immerse yourself in Young Skinny’s world.

While carrying the pain of heartbreak, it’s a song that gently gives a push to those trying to move forward, little by little.
