Yuzu’s classic and popular songs (41–50)
emptyyuzu
“Karappo” is Yuzu’s third single, released in 1998.
It reached No.
4 on the Oricon Singles Chart and became one of the defining songs of Yuzu’s early period.
Written and composed by Koji Iwasawa, it was created based on a bittersweet, aching love.
Few things are sadder than a relationship where the timing between two people is out of sync.
The acoustic guitar and harmonica in the intro heighten the melancholy, making it a song that gently seeps into your heart.
Yuzu’s vocals tend to be on the higher side, but when the harmonies lock in, it feels great—so give it a try at karaoke.

Until we meet againyuzu
This song, which was also used as an ending theme for Doraemon, is popular among children.
“Mata Aeru Hi Made” is characterized by simple, easy-to-understand lyrics, and in fact, its lyrics were collected from children and compiled by Yujin Kitagawa, which gives it a certain nostalgic and slightly bittersweet feel.
The track is packed with Yuzu’s signature charm, letting you fully enjoy their warm atmosphere and gentle melody.
Its approachable vocal range and clear melodic line make it easy for men to sing as well.
It’s also recommended if you’re looking for a song to sing together with kids.
Again 2yuzu
It’s very Yuzu-like, with lyrics that gently give you a push and a song overflowing with freshness.
It lifts you up and wraps you in warmth when you’re feeling down or lonely in a new chapter of life.
The slightly faster tempo adds a sense of drive, making it a very easy song to listen to.
carrotyuzu
A hidden gem by Yuzu.
It’s a motivational song with the message: break out of the world someone else gave you and start running.
Lyrics that ask, “Is it enough to just follow the path laid out for you?” and say, “Let’s walk a life that’s true to ourselves by our own will!” will strike a chord with anyone at a turning point in life.
Seeking freedom is a tough and grueling battle, but the future only opens up by moving forward.
When you’re faced with a major decision, this song will give you the courage to take your next step.
Friend ~Time to Depart~yuzu
Now, when it comes to folk duos in the J-POP scene, the first act that likely comes to mind is Yuzu—and this is their 38th single.
Released as a limited-edition single through the end of December 2013, the song was originally written for all the staff who went on tour after the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011.
With lyrics about friendship, it seems like a perfect fit for teenage girls who often go to karaoke with friends.
As a medium-tempo ballad, it’s easy to sing and a beautifully crafted number that effortlessly draws listeners in.
Song of a Friendyuzu
Yuzu’s “Tomodachi no Uta” is a popular number known for its moving melody and relatable lyrics.
Since it doesn’t have any exceptionally high vocal parts, it’s easy to sing for men who struggle with high notes, making it a song anyone can try.
Another hallmark of this track is its lyrics about youth and friendship—feelings that never fade no matter how old you get.
Set to a simple melodic line, the song’s charm lies in how the now slightly tired, grown-up self looks back on the happy days spent with friends.
It also has the quality of a pep song, offering encouragement to yourself or to a friend who’s feeling down.
underground mallyuzu
A song with a music video that lets you enjoy the vibe of Yuzu’s youthful street-performing days.
Released in the fall of 1997, it’s a classic brimming with youthful energy and power—no lavish production or flashy gimmicks, just forceful acoustic strumming and full-throttle vocals.
It was written after receiving a love consultation from a friend, and the lyrics carry a strong message.
