Moon Light Snow Rabbitsvistlip
This is a song by vistlip that sets the aching pain of heartbreak to a beautiful melody.
Released in April 2008, it’s included on the album Revolver.
The lyrics are striking, likening the image of a snow rabbit melting away to a love that is fading.
Phrases like “I loved you,” expressed in the past tense, poignantly convey the fragility of a relationship that has ended.
Showcasing vistlip’s richly emotive musicality, this track is sure to resonate with anyone carrying the pain of a broken heart.
On a night troubled by love, it might be just the song to listen to alone, letting the tears fall.
reckless person≒JOY
Debuting on March 29, 2022 and currently active as a 12-member group, ≒JOY is a female idol group gaining attention for their diverse songs and performances.
Produced by Rino Sashihara, the members—known for their strong vocal and dance skills—deliver genre-defying tracks, and their broad musicality is a major appeal.
In particular, songs like “Chō Kodoku Lion” and “Waratte Fragile” have earned fan support, with the former showcasing a cool, edgy side and the latter conveying a refreshing sense of youth.
They also actively engage with fans on social media, fostering a sense of closeness that sets them apart.
With even greater success anticipated, ≒JOY is a group that music lovers of all kinds should definitely check out.
Innocent YouIyowa
“Muko” is read as “muko,” a word meaning “innocence” or “being without sin.” It’s a piece by the Vocaloid producer Iyowa, known for their distinctive musicality, released in 2019.
The sound arrangement, which feels like the audio has been roughly cut and pasted together, really sticks in your ears.
Yet the melody is catchy, and that contrast is, conversely, unsettling.
It’s a love song that pours out feelings for a beloved “you”… but as for its content and the meaning of the title, I encourage you to interpret them yourself.
That way, it’ll give you even more chills.
Muen-zakaMasashi Sada
Muen-zaka was the final single by Grape, the folk duo of Masashi Sada and Masami Yoshida.
The song expresses a son’s feelings toward his mother, who has endured many hardships.
Its heart-wrenching lyrics and bittersweet melody continue to be loved by many to this day.
Although the piece sits in a relatively high key that showcases Sada’s beautiful voice, the melody actually moves mostly in stepwise motion, making it surprisingly easy to sing.
Of course, you don’t need to stick to the original key—adjust it to suit your own voice.
This song is quintessentially Masashi Sada in the way it conveys love for family, so try singing it while thinking of your own loved ones.

Deworming LullabyMasashi Sada
It’s a song that feels like a scene from Sada’s theater, brimming with realism.
On a certain TV program, Shinjii Tanimura—also a singer-songwriter like Sada—mentioned, “I teach at a university as a professor and teach students how to write lyrics.” He said the crucial point in lyric writing is to use a single word to evoke exactly what you want to convey.
But when it comes to Sada’s lyrics, he joked that they’re “just too long.” This song is about memories with a late grandfather.
Please give it a listen.
Mushikui PsychedelismJips
This is one song incorporated into Zipps’ “Heisei Project.” The story, featuring an organization called the Heisei Snipers, was developed in multiple formats, including a comic adaptation and a novelization.
It’s a duet by Kagamine Rin and Len with a striking, Japanese-style intro—dark, yet so rhythmic that you can’t help but get hooked.
