Only for you, clear skiesYorushika
It’s a track marked by a nostalgic melody that evokes the scent of summer and parched clouds.
n-buna’s lyrics weave in the essence of Masaoka Shiki’s haiku, blending literary depth with an easy, pleasant rhythm.
suis’s clear, translucent vocals highlight the bittersweetness of youth gone by.
The music video, released in May 2018, drew a major response, and streaming plays have surpassed hundreds of millions, making it one of their signature hits.
The song is included on the mini-album “Makeinu ni Encore wa Iranai,” and in December 2019 it was also used as the opening video for the live show “Sayonara Tarinai Futari.” It’s a masterpiece that gently stays with you in those moments when a sudden memory of the past brings a pang of sadness.
AlgernonYorushika
A heartwarming number inspired by the classic novel Flowers for Algernon, it portrays the slow, deliberate walk through the maze-like journey of life.
Written as the theme song for the TBS Tuesday drama Hold My Hand at Sunset, it was released digitally in February 2023.
Later included in the musical art collection Gentō, the piece layers delicate piano tones with Suis’s translucent vocals, gently soothing the listener’s heart.
It’s the perfect song for moments when daily life feels a bit exhausting, or for quiet nights when you want to reflect on the evolving relationships with those you love.
A beautiful medium-tempo tune whose lyrics, reminding us of the importance of moving forward without haste, resonate deeply within.
Spring ThiefYorushika
Don’t you ever feel a sudden pang of bittersweet emotion as you watch flower petals dance on the spring breeze? This track by Yorushika—composed by n-buna with vocals by suis—delicately captures the changing of the seasons.
Included on the EP “Sakubun” released in January 2021, the song had actually been airing on TV since March 2020 as the theme for a Taisei Corporation commercial, so many listeners were eagerly awaiting the full version.
The idea of likening the wind that scatters cherry blossoms to a “thief” is brilliant, and the lyrics, which conjure beautiful imagery, together with the acoustic sound, resonate deeply.
It’s lovely for a walk, of course, but it’s also perfect when you want to reflect on springtime farewells and new encounters, or immerse yourself in music that feels like a story.
Please forget it.Yorushika
Yorushika is a musical duo beloved for their literary worldview and translucent sound.
Among their songs, this medium-tempo ballad is the one I recommend when you want to sink into a tight, aching sadness.
Released as a single in July 2024, it was written as the theme song for the drama “GO HOME: Metropolitan Police Department Unidentified Persons Consultation Office.” Through n-buna’s lyrics, it portrays a contradictory love—wishing for someone’s happiness while still hoping not to be forgotten—like memories entrusted to the loquat tree in the garden.
Suis’s gentle yet resolute vocals seep into the heart as they ride the quiet melody.
It’s a stirring track, perfect for nights when you want to look back on cherished memories or spend some peaceful time.
aporiaYorushika
Yorushika is a duo beloved for their literary lyrics and philosophical themes.
Released in October 2024, this song was written as the ending theme for the TV anime Chi: On the Movements of the Earth.
It captures a thirst for knowledge and unanswered questions through the shimmering timbre of the mandolin and a clear, transparent vocal, quietly kindling a passion in the listener’s heart.
There’s also a unique anecdote that composer n-buna improvised and recorded the mandolin during production, reflecting meticulous attention to sonic detail.
The piece portrays a determination to reach for phenomena that may never yield answers, making it a beautiful medium-tempo tune perfect for gazing up at the night sky and sinking into contemplation.
That’s Why I Gave Up MusicYorushika
Yorushika is a band composed of composer n-buna and vocalist suis.
The final track on their first full-length album, “だから僕は音楽を辞めた” (released in April 2019), shares the same title as the album itself: “だから僕は音楽を辞めた” (“That’s Why I Gave Up on Music”).
The song was created under the concept of turning into music a letter written by a young man who has decided to quit music, addressed to a person named Elma.
Riding on a driving piano and guitar sound, suis’s clear, translucent voice poignantly conveys the anguish and inner conflict of creation.
Said to reflect n-buna’s own experiences, the piece is likely to resonate deeply with anyone who feels on the verge of being crushed by reality while chasing their dreams.
It’s a track you’ll want to experience within the context of the entire album, which lets you relive the story.
August, someone, moonlightYorushika
Set on an August night, this song pierces the heart with lyrics that confront the swirling impatience and inner conflict within oneself.
Riding on a fast-paced band sound, Suis’s voice—both transparent and powerful—rings out.
Even as the words spit out “I don’t need anything,” you can feel the earnest desire to leave something behind, and each listen shakes me to the core.
It’s the third track on the album ‘Therefore, I Gave Up Music,’ released in April 2019, and when you listen to it together with the surrounding tracks, it takes on a deep sense of storytelling, as if you’re reading through a single letter.
It’s a rock tune where urgency and poignancy coexist beautifully—perfect for those nights when you want to race full speed on a bicycle with the night breeze on your face, or when you need to let out emotions too heavy to carry alone.
