That GirlStevie Wonder
This is a track that captivates the heart with its comfortable rhythm and distinctive harmonies.
It conveys a deep affection a man holds for a woman, coming across as a message that resonates with listeners.
Released in 1982, it set a record by staying at No.
1 on the U.
S.
Billboard R&B chart for nine weeks.
Featured on the album “Stevie Wonder’s Original Musiquarium I,” it beautifully fuses Stevie Wonder’s signature soulful vocals.
The lyrics, which delve deeply into a woman’s inner world from a man’s perspective, are likely to remain on many people’s replay lists for a long time.
It’s a superb song that subtly adds color to everyday life and is recommended for a wide audience.

Superfly’s 15th single, released on August 15, 2012.
Included on Superfly’s fourth album, “Force.” It was chosen as the theme song for the 2012 film “Yamikin Ushijima-kun” (Ushijima the Loan Shark).
It’s a gentle, heartfelt song that speaks to living straightforwardly and true to yourself, even if you feel small.
The Time Has ComeTANAKA feat. AYAKO-with MALAWI
Did you know that “The Time Has Come,” a support song for athletes competing in the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games, wasn’t created by famous singers or artists, but features the participation of Mr.
Nagakazu Tanaka, a former member of the Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers (JOCV), as a co-producer? Mr.
Tanaka, who served as a JOCV volunteer in Malawi—known as one of the world’s poorest countries—came up with the idea of collaborating with Malawians to create an athlete support song as a way to give back.
Although the production took place entirely remotely due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, Malawian music producer DJ Sley handled the music production, and after many twists and turns, “The Time Has Come” was successfully completed.
For behind-the-scenes stories about the production, Mr.
Tanaka has written in detail on his Note blog, so if you’re interested, please check it out!
THE ENDLESS BASISTERRA ROSA
TERRA ROSSA is a heavy metal band formed in 1982.
With powerful female vocals and very beautiful melodies, their songs are, in my opinion, quite accessible.
In 2016, they reunited for a limited time, re-released their past albums with new tracks added, and went on tour.
THE EDGETHE BAWDIES
THE BAWDIES, whose soulful vocals and strong sense for music deeply influenced by Black music have earned them high acclaim.
This song was released in 2016 as their 11th single.
It embodies their determination as they stand on the edge of a cliff.
THE SEVEN SEASTHE BAWDIES
A track included on the single THE SEVEN SEAS.
The music video, which feels like something out of a Western film, is one you should see at least once.
It’s an easy-to-listen-to song that will definitely make you want to play it again after just one listen.
It’s soothing.
THE BLUE HEARTSTHE BLUE HEARTS
The first album by THE BLUE HEARTS, a four-piece punk rock band that made their major debut in 1987.
Propelled by their explosive debut with the track “Linda Linda,” the band became legendary, and this album is considered their signature work.
It’s packed with catchy numbers that grab you with a sense of speed, showcasing vocalist Hiroto Kōmoto’s unique character and guitarist Masatoshi Mashima’s rock ’n’ roll spirit front and center.
Full of rock tunes that’ll make any rock fan want to belt out in a chorus, the powerful backing vocals and arrangements are perfect for energizing a karaoke session.
