weKana Nishino
A song by singer-songwriter Kana Nishino, who has enjoyed immense popularity especially among young women.
She has other songs that focus on friendship, but Watashitachi is also a truly wonderful friendship song.
It’s a gently soothing ballad that portrays a uniquely feminine form of friendship.
I’m sure it depicts many episodes that women can relate to.
After all, the appeal of Kana Nishino’s music lies in the relatable stories told with words that anyone can easily connect with.
It’s the perfect song for a woman to dedicate to her best friend.
The meaning of goodbyeNogizaka46
Sayonara no Imi, with its beautiful piano tones and memorable melody, is the 16th single released by the idol group Nogizaka46 in November 2016.
It’s a fan favorite among Nogizaka followers, and the story-driven music video featuring the members is another highlight—be sure to check it out! They say “goodbyes are the beginning of new encounters,” but haven’t you ever wanted to see a friend you’ve drifted apart from just one more time? If you listen to this song filled with bittersweet emotion, something might just change.
My friendSpoon
Spoon is a male-female duo music unit based in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka, made up of Megumi and Kosuke.
You probably have a best friend you treasure, and this song portrays exactly that kind of bond.
If you’ve spent many years together, you’ll know each other’s strengths and weaknesses, the good parts and the not-so-good parts.
With that in mind, it’s a heartwarming friendship song about taking each other’s hand and getting through tough times together.
BEST FRIENDGReeeeN
BEST FRIEND is a track released exclusively via digital distribution in March 2013 by the vocal group GReeeeN, known for hit songs like Ai Uta and Kiseki.
It has been used as the commercial song for Tokyo Individualized Educational Institute and as the walk-up music for Chiba Lotte Marines player Shohei Kato, so many of you have probably heard it.
Why not listen while thinking back on the close friend you always spent your youth with? Things may not be like they were back then, but this song will surely bring those memories rushing back and make you want to meet up and talk again!
fake girlJY
Former KARA member Kang Ji-young—who became hugely popular for their hip-swaying dance—now works as an actress under the name Ji-young (知英) and as a musical artist under the name JY.
This song, which was the theme for the drama “It’s All About the Looks” (Hito wa Mitame ga 100 Percent), is about real girls.
We all want to look cute and stay motivated every day, but there are days when we end up slacking off, and times when we can’t quite pull off the cute vibe we’re aiming for.
This track is a cheer for those girls.
Please share it with friends who are working hard in love, at their jobs, or in their studies!

Stand-Up SisterYU-KI
YUKI often sings sweet and cute love songs, but it seems she wrote this one to dedicate to a dear female friend.
Within the strong message of “stand up,” the song is filled with YUKI’s unique worldview of living naturally and freely.
Women are beautiful even when they cry or act selfishly.
That’s why this is an anthem for women—don’t give up on various things, don’t be swallowed by the world, and live powerfully.
My friendZARD
Encouraged by the lyrics “Your positive self is wonderful,” this is one of the masterpieces that colored the Japanese music scene of the ’90s.
It’s a single by ZARD, who produced numerous popular songs such as “Makenaide,” released in 1996.
Chosen as the ending theme for the TV anime SLAM DUNK, it became a huge hit.
The refreshing, breezy sound pairs beautifully with vocalist Izumi Sakai’s clear, expansive voice.
It’s a song you’ll want to send to a wonderful friend of yours.
