With these feelings as they areShogo Hamada
This is a pop number by Shogo Hamada that earnestly wishes the night spent with a lover could last forever.
Even after the date ends and they share a goodnight kiss, the longing only deepens—“I don’t want to go home; I don’t want to let you go.” That straightforward emotion resonates in the heart, carried by a sound that’s both nostalgic and dazzling.
After being included on the 1993 album “Sono Eien no Ichibyou ni ~The Moment Of The Moment~,” the song was later released in April 1994 as the B-side to the single “Hoshi no Yubiwa.” There’s also an anecdote that it had been performed since the 1970s under the working title “Kaerenai Kaesanai” (“Won’t Go Home, Won’t Let You Go”).

Released as a single in December 2004, it was also featured in a commercial for Kyocera’s au mobile phone “A1403K.” The dynamic visuals of Nagabuchi himself sprinting in the ad paired with the song’s sense of speed likely left a lasting impression on many.
The lyrics portray a valiant beast baring its fangs and facing a ravaged world with a trembling soul, awakening the wildness that sleeps in the listener’s heart.
The coupling track includes audio from the legendary all-night live concert on Sakurajima, and the work as a whole radiates tremendous heat.
When you want to break through the status quo or need courage to take a new step, listening to it might give you a powerful push forward.

confessionFUNKY MONKEY BABYS
There must be plenty of people in their thirties today who can’t help but squint with nostalgia at the sight of Eiichiro Funakoshi’s jacket with an umbrella.
“Kokuhaku” (Confession) is a hit song released in 2008, a masterpiece that belts out incredibly straightforward, honest lyrics with all its might.
True to their style, the lyrics are packed with words and delivered at a slightly rapid pace, but it’s quintessential 2000s J‑POP, and for those who were in their teens to twenties back then and are now in their thirties, it likely feels like the melody of their youth—something they can sing with ease.
Just a heads-up: the final chorus modulates up by a half step!
