swayingEvery Little Thing
In March 2003, when the winds of the Warring States period swept into theaters, Every Little Thing delivered a refreshing pop tune as the theme song for the film Inuyasha: The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass, woven from sparkling synthesizers and an upbeat melody.
Kaori Mochida’s lyrics portray shifting emotions through metaphors like pale skies and gemstones.
The exhilaration of stepping forward from stagnation aligns beautifully with the story’s rising tension toward the film’s climax.
Though placed in the unusual position of being a movie theme song while included as the B-side to the single “Grip!,” it, together with the TV opening “Grip!,” colored the world of the work from two fronts.
It’s a song that gives you a push when you want to kindle your sense of adventure or face forward.
The hero goes.MOJO
A powerful song sung by MoJo as the ending theme of Battle Fever J, which aired in 1979.
The lyrics are by Saburo Yatsude, while the music and arrangement—infused with marching-style elements—are by Chuumei Watanabe.
The brass fanfare and guitar race in unison to create a grand, sweeping sound that serves as a fitting close to the visuals.
The lyrics convey the heroes’ sense of duty and determination to keep moving forward, bridging each episode to the next with rising anticipation.
Released by Nippon Columbia as a 7-inch single (SCS-468) in March 1979, it was later included in the 2006 Super Sentai 30th Anniversary Single Collection.
It’s a sturdy, hard-hitting hero anthem that gives you a push when you want to take a step toward tomorrow.
Make Your Dreams Come True, DynamanMOJO
The ending theme of Kagaku Sentai Dynaman, which began airing in February 1983, is a powerful song that portrays five heroes fighting for their dreams.
Sung by MoJo and the chorus group Chorogei ’73, it leaves a strong impression with its message of courage and hope as they defeat the evil Jashinka Empire.
The lyrics were written by Kazuo Koike, with composition and arrangement by Kensuke Kyo, and the bold sound woven by brass and chorus set children’s hearts ablaze.
The single was released by Nippon Columbia in February 1983, and it was later issued on CD in March 2006 as a 30th-anniversary commemorative edition.
This song, played at the end of each episode, teaches the importance of making dreams come true.
It’s the perfect hero song to give you energy when you need a boost to keep going.
You’re the Only…Ono Masatoshi
Masatoshi Ono is known in Japan as one of the top masters of high-tone vocals.
In addition to his falsetto, he is highly regarded for his mixed voice, and he’s famous for delivering solid sound pressure even at high pitches.
Speaking of Ono’s most challenging songs, “You’re the Only…” is probably at the top of the list.
This piece features an exceptionally wide range from mid1 G# to hi B, and it does not use falsetto.
In other words, because every high-tone phrase has to be sung in chest voice, it’s difficult to pull off unless you possess an unusually specialized vocal range to begin with.
Moreover, as a rock ballad, it also demands vocal power, making it a song of very high difficulty in every respect.
Snow FantasyMatsuda Seiko
This work was included on the winter concept album “Snow Garden,” produced by Takashi Matsumoto in November 1987.
It was also used as an insert song in the film “Binenetsu Shonen,” directed by Matsumoto.
The lyrics, sprinkled with fantastical motifs such as snow sprites, forests, and reindeer-drawn sleighs, portray a poignant longing as the singer makes their way to a lover’s home amid the serene scenery of a snowy night.
The lyrics were written by Takashi Matsumoto, with composition and arrangement by Masaaki Omura.
The warm arrangement, woven from strings and synth sounds, truly resonates with the heart.
It’s a winter ballad with a dreamy atmosphere—one you’ll want to listen to on a winter night while thinking of someone dear.
Fade-out (in a wavering heart)Inagaki Junichi
Opening with images of a broken-heeled high heel and a parting scene, this piece is a number steeped in the ache of adult romance, portraying a wavering man’s heart caught between turmoil and forgiveness.
The lyrics weave delicate words to express complicated feelings toward a lover, and the gradual fade-out at the end beautifully echoes the title.
The samba-tinged rhythm is soothing, and together with its modern chord progression it creates an urban, mellow atmosphere.
Although it wasn’t released as a single, the track—featured on the February 1983 album “Shylights”—has maintained enduring popularity, later being selected for the best-of compilation “REVELATION.” It’s a quintessential early city-pop song by Inagaki, perfect for a drive or for contemplative, quietly reflective nights.
Wish Upon the SnowMakihara Noriyuki
A perfect piece for winter that gently sings of “the warmth of loved ones.” It’s the 10th single released by singer-songwriter Noriyuki Makihara in November 1993, a single cut from the album SELF PORTRAIT, and it was used as TBS’s winter campaign song.
The charm of this work lies in its tender lyrics, which view Christmas as a day to feel connected to others.
The emotionally rich arrangement—piano and strings woven over a medium-tempo melody—feels wonderfully comforting.
Sing it at karaoke, and the memories of Christmas from those days will quietly come back to life.
