Yuzu’s greatest and most popular songs

The Never-Ending Songyuzu

Yuzu “Endless Song”

Many artists don’t want their songs or live performances to come to an end, and Yuzu seems to be no exception.

This song carries that wish, along with the message: “What can we leave to the children of the future?”

Ichikahachi

This song takes everyday doubts and inner conflicts as its theme, portraying the importance of life’s choices and decisions.

Featuring aggressive guitar riffs and rhythmic lyrics, it fuses Yuzu’s signature pop sensibility with rock elements.

Released in February 2011, the track is included on the album “2 -NI-,” showcasing the breadth of Yuzu’s musical range.

Singing about the importance of moving forward with an all-or-nothing spirit, this piece is perfect for moments when you’re at a crossroads or eager to take on a new challenge.

It’s a song that gives you the courage to make choices that are true to yourself.

Nanimonai

It’s a song whose deeply sentimental lyrics linger in the heart.

With a piece this slow, the beauty of the melody and voice—and the high level of vocal skill—really stand out.

The two singers’ perfectly synchronized harmonies are also a highlight.

I love how emotionally it ends.

Bye-byeyuzu

Live Yuzu “Bye-bye”

It’s a very, very gentle song.

Although the title is “Goodbye,” I feel like it’s actually singing about feelings that never reach their destination from the very beginning.

If they were lovers, they could say, “Let’s stay together a little longer,” but because they’re not, they can’t say it—that’s the impression I get.
