December, when the city is enveloped in illuminations and the Christmas mood is in full swing, offers many opportunities to spend warm moments with family and loved ones. However, as soon as you step outside, you feel the cold, wrapped up in your bodies. It's also a time to reflect on the past year and welcome the new year.

So, FASHION HEADLINE asked music lovers in the industry about their favorite songs to listen to during the holiday season!

This five-part series will introduce music that will make your holiday memories even more vivid, including songs to listen to alone, songs to listen to at parties, and songs that will refresh your spirit.

In the second installment, we will introduce four songs selected by Atsushi Miura, chief producer of the Variety Production Center at Fuji Television's Programming and Production Department.


Kenji Ozawa "Who's Knocking on the Door?"

When winter comes, I crave sparkling sounds. Ozaki has a lot of songs that are perfect for winter, and "Itaikai Ukiuki Dori" is particularly famous, but for me, this is the song I most want to listen to in winter, no matter how many years have passed!




Kazuya Yoshii "Bakka"

It's a bit of a niche Christmas song, but every year on December 28th, Yoshii holds a live concert where he plays a special selection of songs (I've been there every year for eight years in a row since 2006), and this song I hear on this day is special.




Keiichi Sogabe "Lover's Rock"

The album title "LOVE CITY" refers to Shimokitazawa, and in the winter of 2006, when this album was released, I would go to Sogabe's shop in Shimokitazawa three times a week, and at his live shows I would get drenched in sweat and sing this song at the top of my lungs. A song from my youth.




Dempagumi.inc "Let's Run into Winter!"

Following on from "I Want a Kiss," this is a refreshing Shibuya-kei number from the Kaseki Saida x Kogure Shinya duo. It's a bit of an unusual song for Dempagumi, but it's right down the middle of my musical journey. I find myself wanting to listen to it even when it's not winter.
