For those who feel lonely at night or anxious about the future, I recommend the lead track from the mini-album “season.” Released by Macaroni Enpitsu in 2019, it was chosen as the opening theme for episode 2 of TV Tokyo’s Drama 24 series “I Dreamed of That Girl.” It’s also included on the 2020 album “hope.” With lyrics themed around “unconditional love,” the song deeply resonates with university students who may feel isolated in new environments.

Its mid-tempo sound, featuring piano and synthesizer, conveys warmth and hope.

The affirming words sung by vocalist Hattori gently support everyone starting a new chapter in life.

I want my heart to be untangled… I can’t help but empathize with that complex feeling.

It’s a track by MIMI, released in February 2026.

A duet featuring Hatsune Miku and Kasane Teto SV, it’s crafted so that the contrasting vocal timbres trace each other’s emotions.

The lyrics unfold a worldview where pain gradually loosens, blending poignancy with gentleness.

Give it a listen when you want to face yourself.

This song is a heartwarming ballad that cherishes the lingering afterglow of a story.

While YOASOBI often features fast-paced tracks, this piece is captivating for its structure that lets emotions slowly unwind in the quiet.

Ikura’s delicate breaths and resonant vocals envelop the pain of farewell and gentle kindness.

Released digitally in January 2021 and later as a CD single in March of the same year, the song was created based on an original novel written by Paru Itagaki and was used as the ending theme for Season 2 of the anime BEASTARS.

It’s also included on the acclaimed album THE BOOK 2, and drew attention for its music video composed of over 2,500 newly drawn illustrations.

A perfect track for a solitary, quiet night or when you want to sink into music with a calm mind.

A song and novel series from the Confession Executive Committee: Love Series featuring the characters Sota Mochizuki and Akari Hayasaka as the main focus.

It tells the story of Sota’s unrequited love for Akari and the frustrating journey until Akari realizes her own feelings.

The novel was published as the second installment of the Confession Rehearsal series, and it also tells the story of the main characters from Our Love Has Always Been 10 Centimeters Apart., which was adapted into an anime.

Although it’s a male vocal song, the key is relatively high, making it quite easy for women to sing as well.

If you make good use of falsetto while singing, you can maintain a relaxed state and produce your voice more comfortably.

It’s a heartfelt mid-tempo track produced by SPICY CHOCOLATE, featuring rapper BES and singer N.O.B.U!!!.

The lyrics portray a strong bond that won’t be broken by time apart or distance, and every listen leaves you with a bittersweet yet warm feeling.

Included as the 10th track on the album “Shibuya Jun’ai Monogatari,” released in October 2014, it’s a hidden gem that, although not a single, has been cherished by fans.

Its sound matches the calm mood of the night and is perfect for moments spent thinking of someone important who’s far away, like gazing at illuminated cherry blossoms after dark.

Please give this springtime song a listen as it faces personal memories and vows to meet again.

Yumiko Mitsui, a skilled singer known as the top disciple of Masaaki Hirao.

Released in April 1973, this work is a wistful song chosen as the ending theme for the TV period drama Hissatsu Shiokinin.

In the second installment of the series—famous for the first appearance of the popular character Mondō Nakamura—her vocals deepened the afterglow of the story and captured the hearts of many viewers.

The melody, which conveys a sense of helplessness that cannot be resolved by simple good-versus-evil and depicts a quietly burning passion, is deeply moving.

It sold over 120,000 copies at the time and was also well received on cable radio.
