Popular Songs by Eikichi Yazawa: A Curated Selection of Gemlike Masterpieces from the Boss of Japan’s Rock Scene (41–50)
I have no reason.Yazawa Eikichi
The ending theme of the Shochiku-distributed film “Ojuken.” It’s the theme song for Eikichi Yazawa’s first starring role.
Though it’s from one of his few lead-actor films, it’s a song that gives you the courage to do your best, and I think it’s a hidden gem.
It’s a track that brings a bit of comfort.
Thank you, my lady.Yazawa Eikichi
I can’t believe he can still produce a voice like this even past 60.
And the fact that he’s been performing live for decades and is still active today must be thanks to remarkable everyday effort.
The song is mid-tempo, in Yazawa’s style of rock, but it’s already at a level that could be called art.
A DAYYazawa Eikichi
If you want to fall asleep to a slow ballad, my top recommendation is Eikichi Yazawa’s “A DAY.” It’s the title track from his second album, released in 1976.
While Eikichi Yazawa is widely seen as an eternally cool rock ’n’ roller, his ballads like this one and “Jikan yo Tomare” are also wonderful.
This love song moves at a gentle tempo throughout, with a soothing, wave-like sway that makes it perfect before bedtime.
It’s often chosen from that perspective, which speaks to its high sleep-inducing effect.
Close your eyes and listen, and you’ll feel time slow down even more.

You’ll probably be surprised at how young Yazawa looks in the video.
He’s got a great figure and looks really cool.
Many artists are unexpectedly short and not very good-looking, but Yazawa both looks good and has a great voice.
The impressive thing is that he’s attractive even from a man’s perspective.
YES MY LOVEYazawa Eikichi
The title is so straightforward it made me laugh, but this song should be relatively new.
Yazawa’s music isn’t swayed by era or trends, and his voice has hardly changed in decades, so unless you look it up, you can’t tell when a song is from.
That’s truly amazing.
This song made me once again realize how great Yazawa is.

Included on the 4th album Gold Rush, released in 1978, which became a massive hit selling over one million copies.
It features a notably more mature sound design.
With extensive use of synthesizers and a fusion-style sax solo, it delivers an urban city-pop sound with strong AOR influences.
It’s a track where you can enjoy Eikichi Yazawa exuding a stylish, masculine allure.

It’s rare to find an artist whose vocals and performance alone make it instantly clear that it’s Yazawa.
Normally, artists are expected to seek evolution and change, but refusing that and continuing to thrive for decades is difficult—because fans are fickle.
