Forever, forever, forever!FRUITS ZIPPER

Beloved by fans as “Furuppa,” FRUITS ZIPPER spreads “NEW KAWAII” from Harajuku.

This piece is a track included on the group’s first single CD, “Watashi no Ichiban Kawaii Tokoro,” released in September 2023.

It’s a classic love song that overlays the frustrated closeness just before a confession and feelings that can’t be put into words with the chill of winter.

The phrase repeated in the chorus highlights the frustration of wanting to say it but not being able to, along with a single-minded wish, making listeners’ hearts flutter.

It was later included on the album “NEW KAWAII” and is a cherished staple at live shows.

A cute song that sings of pure first love, it’s one we hope not only those with unrequited feelings but everyone thinking of someone special will listen to.

A track born from the collaboration between toku—who also works as a composer for GARNiDELiA—and Sayaka Kanda, who was active as both an actress and voice actress.

The lyrics personify the complex emotions evoked by cherry blossoms, and the arrangement is striking for the way modern beats overlap with live-instrument melodies.

Every word penned by Kanda resonates deeply, carried by her transparent yet powerful and delicate voice—it’s a poignant and beautiful spring song.

It is included as the first track on toku’s solo album “bouquet,” released in June 2021, positioned as the very first flower in the album’s bouquet concept.

It’s a song you’ll want to listen to quietly on the way home after cherry-blossom viewing, as you find your own memories reflected in the beauty and transience of the sakura.

Here’s something that will resonate with those feeling a bit lonely as the season of farewells approaches.

It’s a song by the popular idol group Sakurazaka46, included on their album “As you know?” released in August 2022.

Sung by three members—Rina Inoue, Hono Tamura, and Rei Ozono—the track features a sparkling, radiant melody that really stands out.

The trio’s clear, translucent vocals blend perfectly with that melody.

It tugs at the heart with a bittersweet wish for spring to never end, and the emotional wavering between that longing and the resolve to keep moving forward.

Give it a listen when it’s hard to part ways with friends.

You might just create an unforgettable spring scenery of your own.

An unfinished love song I've been working on foreverHata Motohiro

A heartwarming ballad that sings of deep love for a long-time partner.

Performed by Motohiro Hata, this piece delicately portrays how feelings for someone precious grow richer and more vivid over time.

Affection so great that no number of rewrites can fully convey it—like a love letter that’s never quite finished.

Each listen wraps you in a gentle warmth, as if your feelings for the other person are renewed again and again.

Written as the theme song for the film “The 35th-Year Love Letter,” releasing in March 2025, it’s perfect for those moments when putting feelings into words feels a bit embarrassing, yet you still want to express your gratitude and love—and need a little nudge to do so.

Together forever!Kitanitatsuya

Singer-songwriter Tatsuya Kitani, who enjoys overwhelming support from young listeners.

While he has many catchy songs, he also has some technically demanding ones.

Among them, the one I especially recommend is Zuutto Issho! This piece requires a wide vocal range from mid1 A# to high A, with quite dramatic pitch movement up and down.

That alone makes it difficult, but it also has few breathing points and many rapid-fire phrases, so in addition to pitch control, strong lung capacity is needed.

It’s a song that demands comprehensive vocal ability, so definitely give it a try.
