“Ame no Station,” which Yuming released when she still had the surname Arai, is said to be set at Nishi-Tachikawa Station.
The season is the rainy monsoon.
Her ex-lover already has someone new.
She says, “Don’t remember me for that person’s sake,” yet when she stands at the station filled with their memories, she can’t help but think he might be there.
It’s a work that depicts such shifting emotions with a trembling delicacy.

Although it’s a breakup song, it’s not just sad—it’s also an uplifting anthem that looks ahead to a brighter future.

WantedPink Lady
Back then, Pink Lady’s choreography for each new release was a huge talking point, but when I took a closer look at the lyrics of this song, I realized, “Oh, it’s a heartbreak song,” so I decided to feature it.
It starts with a dark, hard sound, but the chorus modulates into something that expresses a gentle, feminine feeling, which made me appreciate anew how unexpectedly deep it really is.
Rock ’n’ Roll in a Dumped MoodTOM☆CAT
Released in 1984, it was their debut single and a major hit.
The band used electronic instruments such as synthesizers, and this was around the time the “techno sound” boom began.
It also drew attention as a breakup song that was up-tempo and represented a new genre.
