I really like some japanese songs. Even if I only barely understand the lyrics, I will still enjoy the tune. 
I will take the effort to find the lyrics online and through the english translation, understand its true meaning. Listening to these songs are like eating a really good cake, learning their meaning is like cake icing or finding out that the cake has a really good filing!
Here are a few i'm listening to: One of my favourite bands!




Aruite ikou aruite ikou
Boku wa “ima” wo ikite iku yo
Kimi ga kureta kotoba wa koko ni aru yo
Sou da yo aruite ikou

Hodoukyou no mukou ni fuyu no machi ga mieta yo
Hito kakera no kodoku wo te ni boku wa asu wo tsunaide iru
“Kokoro de waraeru kana” itsuka no koe ni kikoeta
Shiroi iki ga sora ni kieru
Sabishiku wa nai eki e isogu yo

“Kaeranai to kimetan da”
Hajimari wo tsugeru you ni yuki ga furihajimeta

Aruite ikou aruite ikou
Boku wa “ima” wo ikite iku yo
Kizu tsuitemo nandomo shinjitai yo
Kono te wo kono hibi wo
Kimi to naite kimi to waratte
Boku wa tsuyoku naretan darou
Kimi ga kureta kotoba wa koko ni aru yo
Sou da yo aruite ikou

Taguriyoseta kibou ga nukumori wo daiteru
Ai wo yuruseru tsuyosa wa kimi ga boku ni tsutaeta koto

“Aenakutemo wakatteru yo”
Ima no boku wa ano hi no kimi ni mune wo hareru no kana

Ureshii koto kanashii koto
Sono subete wo wasurenai yo
Hitotsu hitotsu kokoro wo terashite iru
Sou da yo “hitori” ja nai

Sayonara sae arigatou sae
Mou kimi ni wa ienai kedo
"Kisetsu" wa ima tashika ni kawatte iku
Sou da yo hajimeru yo

Aruite ikou aruite ikou
Boku wa “ima” wo ikite iku yo
Kimi ga kureta kotoba wa koko ni aru yo
Sou da yo aruite ikou




I’ll walk, I’ll walk
I’ll live in the present
I have the words you gave me
Yes, I’ll walk

Beyond the pedestrian bridge, I see the winter city
I’m crossing to tomorrow with a piece of loneliness in my hand
“Can you smile in your heart?” I hear a voice from one day
My white breath disappears into the sky
I’m not alone; I hurry to the station

“I’ve decided I won’t go home”
Like the sign of a new beginning, the snow has begun to fall

I’ll walk, I’ll walk
I’ll live in the present
Even if I get hurt, I want to believe again and again
In this hand, in these days
Crying with you, laughing with you
Has made me stronger
I have the words you gave me
Yes, I’ll walk

The hope I pulled close is giving me warmth
You gave me the strength to open myself to love

“Even if I can’t see you, I’ll know”
Can I look back to you on that day and be proud?

The happy things, the sad things
I won’t forget any of them
Each and every one is lighting up my heart
Yes, I’m not “alone”

I can’t even say goodbye or thank you
To you now
But the season is definitely changing now
Yes, I’ll start now

I’ll walk, I’ll walk
I’ll live in the present
I have the words you gave me
Yes, I’ll walk







Kokoro no ana wo umetai kara 
Yasashii furi shite waratta 
Deai to wakare ga sewashiku 
Boku no kata wo kakete iku yo 

Dame na jibun ga kuyashii hodo 
Wakatte shimau kara son da 
Tsuyoku wa narikirenai kara 
Tada me wo tsubutte taeteta 

Hora miete kuru yo 

Kaeritaku natta yo 
Kimi ga matsu machi e 
Ookiku te wo futte kuretara 
Nando demo furikaesu kara 
Kaeritaku natta yo 
Kimi ga matsu ie ni 
Kiite hoshii hanashi ga aru yo 
Waratte kuretara ureshii na 

Taisetsu na koto wa kazoeru hodo 
Aru wake ja nain da kitto 
Kujikete shimau hi mo aru kedo 
Nakidasu koto nante mou nai 

Hora miete kuru yo 

Tsutaetaku natta yo 
Boku ga miru asu wo 
Daijoubu da yo tte sou iu kara 
Nando demo kurikaesu kara 
Tsutaetaku natta yo 
Kawaranai yume wo 
Kiite hoshii hanashi ga aru yo 
Unazuite kuretara ureshii na 

Kaeritaku natta yo 
Kimi ga matsu machi e 
Kakegae no nai sono te ni ima 
Mou ichido tsutaetai kara 
Kaeritaku natta yo 
Kimi ga matsu ie ni 
Kiite hoshii hanashi ga aru yo 
Waratte kuretara ureshii na 



I wanted to fill the hole in my heart
So I smiled and pretended to be kind
The hellos and goodbyes
Race busily past me

It sucks but I know
Just how useless I am
I couldn't be strong enough
So I just closed my eyes and bore it

Look, I can see it now

I want to go home
To the town where you wait
You waved goodbye
So I keep looking back
I want to go home
To the house where you wait
There's something I want to tell you
I hope you'll laugh

I don't think the important things
Can ever be counted
There are days I feel down
But I don't cry anymore

Look, I can see it now

I want to tell you
About the future I see
You say it's okay
So I keep repeating it again and again
I want to tell you
About my unchanging dreams
There's something I want to tell you
I hope you'll understand

I want to go home
To the town where you wait
Your hand is so precious to me
So I want to tell you now one more time
I want to go home
To the house where you wait
There's something I want to tell you
I hope you'll laugh

And when you truly understand the lyrics, your experience becomes heightened when you hear the song once more, which strengthens your love for the song.

Makes me feel like taking a foreign language course!
