A hidden gem by the popular band Spitz, “Yoru wo Kakeru” is highly regarded.

The live version is especially incredibly cool, so I definitely recommend giving that a listen.

It’s great not only at night but also to try singing at karaoke.

BiSH is a female idol group known as a punk band without instruments.

This song is the solo debut track by BiSH member Cent Chihiro Chitti.

Some of you may have noticed that it’s actually a cover of a song by GOING STEADY/Ging Nang BOYZ.

When I listen to it, it reminds me of Orihime and Hikoboshi from Tanabata, and that notorious terrorist incident also flashes through my mind.

However, I’ve heard that Mineta wrote this song as a heartbreak song based on his experience of breaking up with someone he loved in September.

It’s one of those masterpieces I’d love for you to listen to in September.

It was also used as the theme song for the film “Face of Hell,” skillfully expressing male friendship and a sense of loneliness set against the backdrop of Shanghai.

The human dramas unfolding in the blue night fog vividly reflect the social climate and emotions of the time, leaving a profound impression on listeners.

Covered by numerous artists, including Yujiro Ishihara, the song has been cherished for many years.

It’s a recommended track for those who wish to contemplate the subtleties of life in the quiet of the night.

Akari Nanawo is an artist known for popular songs like “Turing Love feat.

Sou” and “Dadadadadadada Tenshi.” In 2022, she released “Higasa” (“Parasol”), which was selected as the theme song for the short film “Sunday and the Mermaid.” The song depicts the protagonist reflecting on their past self at the end of summer.

Distant summer memories can feel bittersweet—even happy ones—when you realize you can’t go back.
