A classic medium-tempo ballad in Western music

Sitting In The ParkGangway

Gangway – Sitting In The Park (LP)

Gangway is a band from Denmark in Northern Europe.

This work is an impressive piece with a color that sits somewhere between a ballad and power pop.

There’s also a version of the same song with a more acoustic arrangement, but this one, rich in electropop elements, is more vivid.

Released in 1988.

These DreamsHeart

Heart – These Dreams

Included on the 1985 album “Heart.” A six-member rock band from Seattle formed in 1973.

The melody carries a dreamy, allegorical atmosphere that leaves a strong impression, and I think Nancy’s vocals—taking the lead here—match the overall tone of the song beautifully, making it a fine track.

New MistakeJellyfish

Jellyfish – New Mistake

Jellyfish is a power pop band from the United States.

“New Mistake” is a track from their 1993 album Spilt Milk, which is steeped in a full-on ’70s vibe from start to finish.

With its unusual chord progressions, twisted sonics, and lush harmonies, it’s packed with irresistible appeal for anyone who loves this kind of sound.

A song filled with the charm of jazz-pop, whose sweet and wistful vocals seep into the heart.

The lyrics, portraying unrequited love for a friend, capture a bittersweet feeling that many have experienced.

Released in May 2023, the track sparked major buzz on TikTok and resonated with a wide audience.

It’s slated to be included on the album “Bewitched,” which is sure to draw even more attention.

A piece you’ll want to listen to alone on a quiet night—music that stays close to your heart.

Perfect not only for those troubled by love, but also for adults nostalgic for days gone by.

Dream OnAerosmith

Aerosmith – Dream on

A track included on the 1973 album “Aerosmith” (released in Japan as “Yajū Seitān”), later issued as a single.

Although the album was reportedly panned upon its initial release, Dream On climbed to No.

6 on the U.

S.

Billboard chart when it was reissued in 1976.

It’s a highly polished medium-tempo ballad that conveys a sense of classical grandeur.

Sentimental LadyBOB WELCH

BOB WELCH – Sentimental Lady (Original Promo Video)

Bob Welch is a musician from the United States who was once a member of Fleetwood Mac.

This piece was included on his solo album “French Kiss.” The Japanese title is “Sad Woman,” but I think “Sentimental Woman” is closer to the original meaning.

It’s a ballad released in 1977 that carries an indescribable, sweet sense of melancholy.

Struck A NerveBad Religion

Bad Religion – Struck A Nerve

Included on the 1993 album “Recipe for Hate.” A six-piece punk band from Los Angeles formed in 1979.

It’s a rare ballad for a hardcore band, a song that passionately sings about being moved.

I always feel like I’m going to cry when I listen to it.
