A wonderful youth song

A coming-of-age song that was a hit in the ’90s. A classic and popular track in Japanese music.

“SAY YES,” “Tomorrow never knows,” and “Nani mo Ienakute… Natsu”—

The youth songs of the ’90s hold treasured memories hidden in everyone’s heart.

The bittersweet love of CHAGE and ASKA, the hope for the future from Mr.Children, the summertime melancholy of THE JAYWALK.

It’s as if we’ve boarded a time machine, and those shining memories of back then come flooding back.

Shall we look back on that page of youth engraved in our hearts, together with those nostalgic songs?

Ah.

Adolescence is a time of daily inner conflict, caught between feelings, ideals, and reality.

This is an uplifting, positive song that blows away that haze.

Even when you feel like you’re about to fall apart, many people have probably listened to this song as if telling themselves to keep going—and found salvation in it.

In conclusion

I’ve taken a look back at a number of ’90s youth anthems, and each song has a timeless charm that resonates deeply.

Straightforward feelings of first love, yearning for dreams, and even moments of heartache—these emotions from our youth don’t change across generations.

They’re etched deeply in our memories.
