Hit and popular songs by 10-FEET (Ten Feet)

We’d like to introduce some popular songs by 10-FEET, a three-piece rock band from Kyoto Prefecture.

Their appeal lies in the human weakness, strength, and kindness expressed in their lyrics.

On top of that, they’re straightforwardly cool—they embody a wide range of charms.

Brimming with such charm, they are now based in their hometown of Kyoto, but there was a time in the past when they moved their base to Tokyo.

It’s said that the discussion where they decided to head to Tokyo took place in the meeting space at the back right of Studio Rag’s Kitashirakawa location.

Be sure to check out the fiery playlist from 10-FEET, a band with close ties to Studio Rag!

10-FEET’s classic and popular songs (61–70)

recollection10-FEET

This song, “Recollection,” is one I personally love, especially for its drum intro.

The lyric “The me of the future tells me: the one who made my dream come true is YOU” is wonderful.

It makes me feel that if I work hard now, I’ll be able to thank my present self in the future—so now is the time to give it my all.

CRYBABY10-FEET

It is included on their seventh album, “thread.” You can enjoy the harmony between TAKUMA’s straightforward lead vocals and NAOKI’s backing chorus.

With a poignant yet beautiful melody, it’s one of those tracks that delivers a sense of speed while still being deeply listenable.

SEE YOU10-FEET

It is included on their fifth single, “HEY!”.

The song was created by guitarist-vocalist TAKUMA for his beloved grandfather, who passed away when TAKUMA was a child.

The warm, gentle melody and vocals convey TAKUMA’s love for his grandfather.

Sad but ture10-FEET

A track covering Metallica’s “Sad but True” from the Metallica cover project album “METAL – IKKA.” TAKUMA, the guitarist/vocalist, has always liked metal—especially Metallica—so both the sound and the vocals make this an outstanding track.

The vocals at the beginning of the song are powerful and feel great.

Since the opening impact is strong, like “JUNGLES,” it could work well as BGM when creating a slideshow using live sound effects or photos.

Also, on “6-feat 2,” released in 2014—a collection of 10-FEET collaborations with other artists—this song is performed in collaboration with Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra.

That version is awesome too, so be sure to check it out.

From “6-FEET 2.” Here’s a boldly reimagined version of 10-FEET’s signature song “hammer ska,” featuring none other than Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, a ska band Japan proudly presents to the world.

As the title suggests, it’s a ska-based track, so it pairs perfectly with the horn section.

The result packs some serious punch!

It is included on the collaboration album “6-feat” by 10-FEET and various artists.

Tsuji Ayano’s clear, translucent vocals give the track a refreshing touch.

While it’s an unusual collaboration in terms of musical genre, you’ll be surprised by how well they match.
