Crescent Moon Love StoryIshihara Junko
This is a song by Junko Ishihara, sung with a velvety voice honed through shigin, richly conveying a heartrending love story.
A promise made under a crescent moon and the parting that eventually follows.
Images like a night train and the ebbing tide come vividly to mind, and the protagonist’s helpless lingering attachment is almost painfully palpable.
With lyrics by Fumiko Okada and composition by Makoto Kawaguchi—both masters of the enka world—the song was released in September 1994 and went on to win the Excellence Award at the 27th Japan Lyrics Award the following year.
It’s a piece anyone with an unforgettable memory of love can relate to.
On a quiet night, if you listen closely, the memories of that time may come flooding back in vivid color.
Crescent Moon GirlIchiro Fujiyama
Under a crescent moon floating in the night sky, you can picture a caravan crossing the desert—this is the scene evoked by a song from Mr.
Ichirō Fujiyama.
Released in 1947 as an NHK radio popular song, it portrays the pure feelings of a protagonist who continues their journey while thinking of a lover in a distant town.
Mr.
Fujiyama’s warm yet dignified tenor—bringing classical technique into popular music—blends beautifully with the exotically flavored melody composed by Yuji Koseki.
The bell-like accompaniment further heightens the romantic atmosphere of travel.
The song was later included on the album “Omoide no Album” and the celebrated collection “Ichirō Fujiyama Daizenshū.” It’s the kind of beautiful voice that made many hearts feel at ease in the early postwar years—and one you’ll want to listen to closely.
Me for youBEGIN
This song, brimming with BEGIN’s warmth, conveys a heartfelt “thank you” to someone embarking on a new journey.
Titled in the Yaeyama dialect, it rides on the gentle tones of the sanshin, delivering gratitude and cheers for the future that resonate directly with the heart.
Concrete imagery—like the road to the airport—captures the bittersweetness of parting while also portraying the bright, celebratory feeling of a send-off.
Released as a single in February 2007, the track movingly colored the story as the theme song for the film “Koishikute.” It is also included on the album “OKINAWAN FULL ORCHESTRA.” Perfect for moments of farewell—such as graduations or job transfers—it expresses feelings that are hard to put into words.
An ideal song for sharing warmth at just the right moment.
Midnight PretendersTomoko Aran
A city pop classic by Tomoko Aran that gained global reappraisal after being sampled by The Weeknd.
As a founding member of Being, Aran weaves delicate lyrics that meld exquisitely with a melody crafted by Tetsuro Oda.
The gently drifting synthesizers and smooth, subdued bass line evoke both the glitter of the city at night and the loneliness that lurks beneath it.
Though the lovers know it’s a “deceptive affair,” a series of secret trysts, they surrender themselves to those fleeting moments—an unstable passion that tightens the listener’s chest.
It’s a timeless track whose undimmed brilliance makes its enduring love easy to understand.
MirageCreepy Nuts
Irrepressible regret and lingering attachments—the song that pierces deeply into the heart is Creepy Nuts’ “Mirage.” Released in July 2025, it was chosen as the opening theme for the TV anime Call of the Night Season 2.
In contrast to the fun, escapist nights depicted in Season 1’s “Datenshi,” this work expresses the struggles and conflicts unique to adulthood.
Many listeners will likely resonate with R-Shitei’s theme of a “murky relationship with the night.”
Mr. Trouble MakerJanne Da Arc
An aggressive, fast-paced metallic rock track included on the album JOKER, released in June 2005! Following a siren-like intro, the guitar and bass trade fierce lines in a thrilling progression that reportedly has many fans raising their fists at live shows.
It’s said that the song is based on lyricist yasu’s own experiences, delivering a scathing message to those who spread gossip.
The slightly shouted vocals convey a strong will that refuses to yield to injustice.
A powerful song perfect for blasting away your frustrations!
