That gentle girlKusano Masamune

Masamune Kusano, the frontman of Spitz, is from Fukuoka City in Fukuoka Prefecture.
He writes most of Spitz’s lyrics and music, weaving in his unique blend of influences—from kayōkyoku and punk to elements of THE BLUE HEARTS—to create a delicate yet refreshing atmosphere you can only experience with Spitz.
His talent, often called genius, is said to make Mr.
Children’s Sakurai jealous.
His endlessly clear, transparent singing voice—and, as he himself has mentioned, his very contrarian personality—are also part of his charm.
If I’m wrapped in kindnessArai Yumi (gen: Matsutoya Yumi)

Since her debut in 1972, singer-songwriter Yumi Matsutoya has continued to release numerous hit songs.
Her third single, “Yasashisa ni Tsutsumareta Nara” (“Wrapped in Gentleness”), became widely known across generations after its album version was used as the ending theme for the 1989 film Kiki’s Delivery Service, 15 years after the original release.
Its airy, gentle melody overflows with a timeless charm that transcends eras.
With its soothing acoustic sound, it remains a beloved classic cherished by listeners of all ages.
YOU DON’T GIVE UPKahara Tomomi

Tomomi Kahala’s 10th single, released on April 8, 1998.
A sound that seems to spread far into the distance, paired with a wistful, prayer-like vocal.
The lyrics—addressed to a beloved person far away—cast feelings and affection across the distance, painting a ballad of strong yet aching love.
May it be filled with kindnessKahara Tomomi

This song was originally made by JUJU.
It might be nice to compare Tomomi Kahara’s cover with JUJU’s original version.
Let’s listen to this song and shower the baby with lots of love.
Yikes.Fuji Kaze

Because slow songs like ballads make the vocal line stand out, people who aren’t confident in their singing might be inclined to avoid them.
Still, if you want to try singing a slow song, I highly recommend Fujii Kaze’s masterpiece “Yaba.” Although it has a slow tempo, it features relatively few vowels compared to the number of notes, making it easy to add your own stylistic touches.
Sing it repeatedly and shape it into a vocal performance full of originality!
If I’m wrapped in kindnessFujihara Sakura

Sakura Fujiwara is a singer-songwriter from Fukuoka.
She made her major-label debut in 2015.
Her breathy, smoky vocal quality is distinctive, with a pleasantly gritty texture to the ear.
With her skill at performing covers with just a single guitar and her unique singing style, she captivates fans of all genders.
The mountain is smiling.Hashiri Yusuke

In 2016, a new national holiday called Mountain Day was established for the first time in 20 years.
To commemorate this, “Yama ga, Warattera” (The Mountains Are Smiling) by HAYASHI Yusuke, an enka singer from Hokkaido, was produced and released as the “Song of Mountain Day.” With its bold, rock-style electric guitar sound and powerful vocals, the track conveys a sense of the mountains’ grandeur.
