A Western pop 'congratulations' song. A celebratory song.
Japan doesn’t have a deeply developed culture of expressing “love,” but it does have a strong culture of expressing “gratitude” and offering “blessings.”
This time, we’ve focused on “blessings” and selected some classic Western songs!
Because many overseas songs are religious “blessing songs,” they tend to carry a stronger message than their Japanese counterparts.
We’ve curated tracks for a variety of situations, so we think people of all generations can enjoy them.
Now then, please sit back and enjoy!
