Breeze Sneakers (Cover ~ Full Version)

Kids love taking walks.

Once they head out in their favorite sneakers, they never want to go home, right? In this song too, they put on their sneakers and go adventuring under the blue sky to all sorts of places.

It’s the kind of track that makes you want to head out as you listen.

UraraYuichiro Hanada, Maya Nagata

“Okaasan to Issho April 2022 Song” ‘Urara’ Cover

“Urara” was released as the song for April 2022.

It was the first Monthly Song for Nagata Maya, who took up the role of the 22nd “Uta no Onee-san” that same month.

The lyrics and music were written by Yoshiki Mizuno, the leader of Ikimono-gakari.

While the song features a light, spring-like melody, its lyrics are filled with encouragement for those feeling anxious about starting a new chapter.

April can be a time of great uncertainty for children, too.

When you feel scared or don’t want to go, try listening to this song.

It will surely give you the courage to take that first step.

Cavity Construction Co., Ltd.Kentaro Hayami, Ayumi Shigemori

Cavity Construction Co., Ltd. (A cappella ver.)

Many children probably say things like, “I hate brushing my teeth!” right? As its name suggests, ‘Cavity Construction Co.

, Ltd.

’ is a song about a company that makes cavities! Using drills and shovels, they dig out cavities while germs have a field day.

That might sound a bit scary, but it’s actually a very sprightly and fun tune! It’s a big hit with kids, too.
