Released in November 1992 as the Daiji MAN Brothers Band’s sixth single, this song was featured as the ending theme for the TV Asahi program “Kimi to I-tsu-ma-de-mo” and used in a FamilyMart commercial.
While sprinkled with Christmas motifs, its lyrics—expressing gratitude and a forward-looking resolve to “stand up again from today, despite everything that’s happened”—resonate deeply with the feelings of adults at a turning point in life, rather than merely capturing a seasonal party mood.
With an upbeat groove reminiscent of WHAM!’s “Last Christmas” and the band’s characteristically emotive melody blending perfectly, it’s a Christmas number that’s easy to sing at karaoke.
An ideal song for sharing the warm feelings of year’s end while reminiscing about the days of youth.

7 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and sold over 310,000 copies.

Devil’s Merry ChristmasSeikima II
The heavy metal band Seikima-II, which took the world by storm with its unique worldview, released a single in 1996 that stands out as an unconventional piece, sharply depicting the reality lurking behind the glitz of Christmas.
While it opens with scenes of a holy night wrapped in eerie brilliance, the lyrics also confront the darker sides of society, such as war and poverty, serving as a powerful counterpoint to the festive season.
It’s also memorable that the song was originally produced to run over seven minutes, but the second verse was entirely cut on the grounds that it was too long for a single, with the full version later released in subsequent years.
Combining metal-style intensity with melodic, kayōkyoku-inspired sensibilities, the sound is guaranteed to get a crowd going at karaoke.
It’s a bracing Seikima-II number that’s especially recommended for those tired of the usual Christmas standards.
