This song, included on the first EP “THE BOOK” released in January 2021 and widely known as a Google Pixel commercial song, is based on Miunokaminami’s short story “At the End of the World, a Farewell Song.” It’s a dramatic track that captures the moment when sounds overlap in a post-apocalyptic world.

The crystalline melodies of piano and synth woven by Ayase, together with ikura’s translucent vocals, vividly color a narrative that rises from silence to elation.

With over 100 million streams, its enduring popularity speaks to its polished perfection.

Infused with a prayer for tomorrow, this is a masterpiece best savored alone on a quiet night—or recommended precisely when you’re about to take a new step forward.

This song was written as the theme for the Fuji TV drama “If This World Is a Stage, Where Is the Green Room?” Its worldview overlays life with theater to accompany Koki Mitani’s ensemble drama set in Shibuya in 1984.

Another highlight is that composer Ayase takes part on vocals as a new challenge for this release.

It’s an ambitious work that conveys the will to move forward while facing the role one has been given.

Watch Me!YOASOBI

YOASOBI「Watch me!」Official Music Video

It’s a bright, electro-pop-leaning sound with a light beat and a chorus melody that really sticks in your head.

It’s a cute song that feels very YOASOBI, so I’d love for teenage girls to sing it energetically! By the way, it seems the English version was released on May 30, 2025.

Feel free to choose whichever language you like when you sing! The chorus is catchy and easy to remember, but the parts outside the chorus seem tricky… Rather than trying to memorize everything at once, let’s master it step by step.

The overall vocal range is G3–F5, and singing lightly with a bouncy feel without forcing your voice will match the song’s vibe.

If you keep time by tracing a circle with your hand from your brow to above your head while singing, it helps you relax and sing more lightly.

Bending your knees slightly to the rhythm at the same time will help you relax even more, so definitely give it a try!

As the sea willsYOASOBI

YOASOBI “At the Mercy of the Sea” Official Music Video

A song by YOASOBI created as part of the “Hajimete no” project in collaboration with a Naoki Prize–winning author.

The original story is a novel by Mizuki Tsujimura, depicting a girl who runs away from home and experiences a mysterious encounter by the sea at night.

The yearning to escape everyday life and the poignant wish to be found by someone resonate over a comfortable mid-tempo sound.

With arrangements that evoke the gentle sound of waves and ikura’s crystal-clear vocals, this track feels like it stays close to your sentimental moods.

Released in November 2022, it is also included on the album THE BOOK 3.

It’s recommended for moments when you want to drift into thought on your way to school or for nights when you want to be alone in your room.

A pop number tinged with melancholy that many troubled high schoolers will likely relate to.
