Songs to listen to when you're tired from work (21–30)
Tomorrow will surely be a good day.Takahashi Yuu
If you’re working hard every day, there are bound to be days like, “I was so busy today…” or “I made a huge mistake today….” On days when you’re completely worn out from work, I recommend this signature song by Yu Takahashi.
The story depicted in the lyrics conveys the message that even the unpleasant things that happen to you are surely the seeds of good things to come.
Maybe today was tough at work for you too, but that, too, is surely a seed for something good that lies ahead.
Let this song help you relax, and let’s do our best again tomorrow!
never wake upsupittsu
The lead track from Spitz’s 15th album, “Samenai.” The music video was reportedly filmed at a live house that represents their roots.
The lyrics evoke Spitz’s history throughout.
It conveys the feeling of never waking from the dreams they once envisioned, and the resolve to keep sharing those dreams with “you.” It’s likely that “you” refers to their fans.
Recommended for anyone who wants to rekindle the passion they felt when they first joined their company.
OneRIP SLYME
Everyone has their own pace and their own life.
Each person walks the answer they’ve chosen in their own way.
That’s not something anyone has the right to deny.
It’s one of their signature songs, filled with a gentle message that says, “You’re fine just as you are.”
Oh Happy DayTenshi ni Rabusongu o 2
This is a classic gospel song that became instantly famous through the human drama film “Sister Act 2.” Gospel is actually very free: as long as it conveys a prayerful heart toward God and the lyrics fit that spirit, even a hip-hop-style track is fine—and dancing is welcome, too!
1㎜Perfume
Perfume has a somewhat otherworldly feel—when you listen, you get immersed in their unique worldview.
But the song “1mm” is packed with the harsh realities of real life, and it really makes you think.
Ever feel worn out on your commute, your mind looping aimlessly? This track fits that mood perfectly—spiraling into thought like philosophy, like a Q&A session with yourself.
Pushing forward with positivity is great, but taking time to face yourself is important too.
GiANT KiLLERSBiSH
This is the title track included on BiSH’s 2017 mini-album “GiANT KiLLERS,” by the “band without instruments.” It’s a fast-paced, powerful number that helps you blow off steam and forget the stress and fatigue built up from work.
Songs that gently say “good job” to your tired self are nice too, but it’s also great to fire yourself up and let it all out with a driving, hard-hitting track like this.
Our TomorrowElefanto Kashimashi
Right from the jump, this song lifts your tired heart with a firm pull: Elephant Kashimashi’s “Our Tomorrow.” It’s like a letter to an old friend—a number that recalls the days of youth, the fun we had back then, and reaffirms a friendship that hasn’t changed.
People busy with everyday life may have no time to look back on the past.
But listening to this track makes you feel like you’re remembering something important, pulling it back out, and turning it into strength for tomorrow.
