Kenshi Yonezu is currently active as a singer, but under the Vocaloid producer name Hachi he has also created numerous masterpieces.
It portrays the unbearably lonely feelings of someone who has lost a loved one.
The music video produced by Hachi himself is also outstanding.
Until I hold you in my arms.MIMI
Without even realizing it, you bottle up your feelings… I bet there are quite a few people like that.
This song gently tells you, “It’s okay.” It’s by MIMI, a Vocaloid producer known for hits like “Kū ni Naru,” and it was released in 2022.
The track is arranged only with vocals, piano, and strings, which makes every word of the lyrics sink in even deeper.
It feels like someone coming to sit beside you and slowly rubbing your back.
Give it a listen when you’re feeling tired.
Don't mess with me.Haruna.
This is a track by Haruna, included on the album “Summer Sky Free Notebook: Page 1,” released in May 2023.
Its emotional, fast-paced rock sound and lyrics filled with anger, sorrow, and an unforgettable ache toward a former lover really strike a chord.
Every down-to-earth word lined up there is so relatable.
I highly recommend it to anyone who needs time to face the pain of a breakup.

It’s a perfect fit for those slightly sentimental moods at summer’s end.
