If you’re looking for a song packed tightly with a sense of aching poignancy, I recommend “Yume” (“Dream”).
As the title suggests, it’s an exquisitely fleeting piece.
The slow tempo and sparse melody double down on its transience.
Don’t you feel the earnest wish to keep dreaming a phantom-like dream forever? Watch the film, and it’s sure to resonate even more deeply.
Moonlight LegendInori Minase
The smash-hit anime Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon and its opening song Moonlight Densetsu have been covered by Inori Minase.
Her speaking voice is cute, but her singing has a different, cool vibe.
Her high notes resonate beautifully, making this a very easy-to-listen-to cover.
It’s the adorable Inori Minase’s Moonlight Densetsu that might just turn male listeners into fans.
Unrewarded WednesdayKenji Sawada
Even though Julie was blessed with hit after hit, in his private life he went through a divorce from Emi Ito and, in 1989—the year his affair with his current wife, actress Yuko Tanaka, was finally settled—released the album “Sleepless Night,” which includes a song that many might relate to.
A younger woman takes a liking to him; he’s fine if it’s just a fling, but a serious romance is a problem, and he’s fed up with her persistent phone calls—a song that exposes a man’s slyness.
Still, it suits Julie perfectly.
MuuBoiled Fruits
A Vocaloid track by Nirukagachi that stands out for its highly addictive melody and emotional lyrics.
Released in October 2024, it was included on the album “MWLÁND,” which came out in November of the same year.
The song symbolizes the human psyche swaying between life and death, love and despair, and poses questions about loneliness in the digital age.
Its sound design transcends genre boundaries, and the composition—where stillness and intensity intersect—draws listeners in.
You can dive into interpreting the lyrics’ world, or simply surrender yourself to the sound without thinking.
Moon GuysBoiled Fruits
The fast-paced sound and the razor-sharp singing of Hatsune Miku leave a strong impression.
Produced by Nirukajitsu, this work was released in September 2024.
Included on the album “MWLÁND,” the song uses the metaphor of soldiers to express the difficulty of maintaining one’s true self within society.
Paired with its speedy arrangement, it strikes sharply at the listener’s heart.
It’s perfect for those in the midst of self-discovery or anyone struggling with inner conflict in society.
It’s sure to resonate with many people.
Impossible!! (You can't do that)Bakufū Slump
Included on the 1984 album “Yoi.” A four-piece rock band formed in 1982 in Tokyo.
Due to inappropriate expressions in the lyrics, the song was designated as banned from broadcast by NHK.
For a while after its release, combined with their provocative live performances, the band was often treated as a comedy act.

The one I’m infatuated withFaye Wong
Faye Wong, well-known in Japan for the film Chungking Express and for Eyes on Me, the theme song of Final Fantasy VIII.
The song that became a hit as an insert track in Chungking Express is this one, noted for the beautiful quality of its distinctive falsetto.
Even people who haven’t seen the movie have likely heard the song somewhere.
In 2016, her daughter Leah Dou covered it with Japanese lyrics she wrote herself.
