One Love / People Get ReadyBob Marley & The Wailers
Bob Marley & The Wailers, the reggae legends born in Jamaica.
Formed in 1963, their contribution to bringing reggae—evolved from ska and rocksteady—to the world is immeasurable.
Bob Marley’s lyrics are characterized by the ideas of the Rastafarian movement and powerful messages of freedom and equality.
The 1973 album Catch a Fire was a groundbreaking work that led reggae onto the international music scene.
Their popularity exploded with hits like Get Up, Stand Up and I Shot the Sheriff from the follow-up album Burnin’.
The biographical film slated for release in May 2024 is also one to watch.
Here lies supreme reggae for everyone who wishes for peace through music.
Outside All Night (feat. A$AP Rocky & N3WYRKLA)Brent Faiyaz
Brent Faiyaz, a rising R&B singer who shot to fame after collaborating with Drake in 2020.
He’s known for R&B with a hip-hop flavor and has worked with many rappers so far.
His new track is “Outside All Night (feat.
A$AP Rocky & N3WYRKLA).” It’s crafted as a sharp, hip-hop-leaning R&B song reminiscent of Lauryn Hill’s “Everything Everything,” so it’s a must-listen for anyone who loved neo-soul and other R&B subgenres from that era!
One Last CryBrian McKnight
A perfect classic for a morning by the sea: “One Last Cry.” It’s a masterpiece by Brian McKnight, one of America’s leading R&B singers, and it was a huge hit in the 1990s.
While the genre is R&B, the overall tempo is kept very slow, making it a ballad that’s easy to enjoy even for those who might be hesitant about Black music.
The lyrics are sad, but the melody is incredibly soothing, so be sure to listen while gazing out at the ocean.
One Kind Of LoveBrian Wilson
Brian Wilson emerged in the 1960s as a revolutionary figure in pop music.
As the central member of the Beach Boys, he profoundly influenced the music world with intricate harmonies and innovative sound production.
Debuting with Surfin’ Safari in 1962, he released numerous masterpieces, including 1966’s Pet Sounds.
In 1988, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and launched a solo career.
Overcoming mental struggles and substance dependence, he has continued to pursue his passion for music.
He is a master who shines brilliantly in the history of pop music—highly recommended for those drawn to delicate sensibilities and original musicality.
Obey with YUNGBLUDBring Me The Horizon
For anyone who wants to get pumped up with a refreshing rock track—featuring loud-as-hell guitars, a heavy rhythm, full-on shouts, and still a singable melody—this song comes highly recommended! It’s a single released in September 2020 by Bring Me The Horizon, now one of the UK’s flagship rock bands and hugely popular here in Japan as well, and it also made waves for featuring fellow UK rising star YUNGBLUD.
Bring Me The Horizon started out as a brutally heavy deathcore band, but over the years they’ve shifted toward a more polished sound.
Obey, which sees frontman Oliver Sykes unleashing fierce screams for the first time in a while, was warmly received by fans who had been waiting for a heavier BMTH.
That said, their knack for crafting something properly catchy is as sharp as ever, making this a cool track that’s also easy to recommend to listeners who find overly heavy music a bit much.
One Day the Only Butterflies Left Will Be in Your Chest as You March Towards Your DeathBring Me The Horizon
Bring Me The Horizon is a band that enjoys immense popularity in the UK.
They’re known for their distinctive sound that mixes metalcore with digital elements, and they’re hugely popular in the alternative rock and alternative metal scenes.
Among their works, the one I especially recommend is “One Day the Only Butterflies Left Will Be in Your Chest as You March Towards Your Death.” The title is so long it feels like a lyric in itself, and the piece carries a theme profound enough to match that length.
The lyrics unfold like a story, but they remain abstract, so many listeners might not grasp what it’s about at first glance.
Considering the timing of its release and the content of the lyrics, I believe this piece sings about the very essence of humanity laid bare by the coronavirus.
The theme is heavy, but it ultimately leaves you with a sense of hope, so be sure to check out the Japanese translation as well.
Oops!…I Did It AgainBritney Spears
It’s a track packed with cute, poppy charm.
It playfully portrays romance and presents a free-spirited female image.
Released in March 2000 by American artist Britney Spears, the song became a global hit, topping the UK Singles Chart and earning a Grammy nomination.
Its music video—featuring a memorable performance on Mars in a red bodysuit—also drew huge attention.
A perfect pick for anyone who wants to revel in the thrills and playful back-and-forth of love.
