Goodbye Never Felt So BadJames Bay
Let me introduce “Goodbye Never Felt So Bad,” a song that delves deeply into the sorrow of heartbreak.
It’s a rock track by British singer-songwriter James Bay.
Set to a driving, fast-paced sound, it gives voice to a woman’s sadness after being dumped by her lover.
The way it conveys grief through various metaphors is especially striking.
While the theme is bittersweet, the powerful vocals and sound might actually lift your spirits.
Goodbye My LoverJames Blunt
James Blunt is an English singer-songwriter who has produced many hit songs, mainly in pop rock, soft rock, and folk rock.
He’s also very popular in Japan.
“Goodbye My Lover” is one of his most beloved songs, themed around parting and farewell.
It portrays the inability to accept a breakup with a lover.
If you’re desperate to hold on to someone important, this song might give you the push you need.
Give It Up Or Turnit A LooseJames Brown
James Brown, the legendary American singer-songwriter known by the nickname “Mr.
Dynamite,” was an artist who remained active from the 1950s through the 2000s.
His celebrated track “Give It Up or Turnit a Loose,” released in 1986, features the soulful vocals and groovy backing typical of 1980s funk, resulting in an unforgettable melody.
A staple in breakdancing—and even used at the Paris 2024 Olympics—this classic is a must-listen.
Gentlemen Take PolaroidsJapan
Japan, the beautiful five-piece born in London, bears a band name deeply familiar to Japanese ears.
Centered around the overwhelmingly charismatic David Sylvian and filled with distinctive personalities, they lived up to their name by first catching fire in Japan—earning a “big in Japan” reputation that included playing the Nippon Budokan on their first visit.
Evolving from early glamorous rock toward a more art-driven synth-pop, they cultivated a singular aesthetic and rose to a solitary, rarefied stature.
Their 1980 single Gentlemen Take Polaroids, also the title track of the album of the same name, became the first song in their career to enter the charts in their home country, the UK.
Immerse yourself in its flowing synths, Mick Karn’s sinuous fretless bass, and a melody that is pop yet intensely decadent.
Good Morning MercyJason Crabb & Dylan Scott
Good Morning Mercy, a collaboration between singers Jason Crabb and Dylan Scott.
The highlight of the song is how it gradually intensifies from a gently sung intro with acoustic guitar.
The moments when the two sing together give me chills.
One of them sings the harmony part, but the volume is powerful enough to almost rival the lead—surprising, yet the overall balance never falters.
Impressive!
Ghost Ship in a StormJim O’Rourke
With his charming looks also making an impression, Jim O’Rourke is globally renowned as an innovative, cutting-edge musician.
He has continued to release outstanding work as a solo artist—from original albums to film soundtracks—while also participating as a member of Gastr del Sol and Sonic Youth and producing numerous artists both in Japan and abroad.
His nerdy temperament, wide-ranging musical activities, and genre-defying style make it difficult to categorize O’Rourke within any single genre.
Speaking of O’Rourke—who currently resides in Japan—within the context of post-rock, the must-mention work is undoubtedly his classic 1999 solo album Eureka.
The album, whose striking cover art by Japanese manga artist and illustrator Mimiyo Tomozawa leaves a strong impression, was his first explicitly song-oriented record.
At the same time, the peculiar pop sensibility grounded in his omnivorous musicality gave it a singular character, making it a masterpiece.
From the effortless inclusion of a Burt Bacharach cover, to its truly bucolic melodic sense, to an almost obsessive attention to every note, O’Rourke’s brand of pop—tinged with a certain dark humor that matches the cover’s image—is something I hope younger music fans will (re)discover now that we’re well into the 2020s.
Guilty PleasureJoJo Siwa
This track opens up a new frontier in electropop.
It’s packed with a fresh side of JoJo Siwa’s appeal.
It debuted as the title track of her EP released in July 2024.
While reflecting a nostalgic 2012 sound, it’s finished with a modern edge.
The lyrics stand out for encouraging a bold approach to a lover, and they also convey her feelings about her music career.
The music video made waves with provocative outfits and choreography.
It’s the perfect song to get you hyped before heading out to the club!
