Butterfly EffectSEKAI NO OWARI

SEKAI NO OWARI is a four-member co-ed band that crafts a wide-ranging worldview—from global to minimal—through sounds that evoke a sense of fantasy.

Released as a triple A-side along with Turquoise and Saraba, their 17th major single Butterfly Effect was chosen as the opening theme for the TV drama My Husband in Name Only.

The pop melody sung by pianist Saori reveals a different side of SEKAI NO OWARI from the songs sung by vocalist Fukase.

With its upbeat rhythm and gentle vocals, it’s a track that feels comfortable and makes you want to listen again and again.

BirdmanSEKAI NO OWARI

SEKAI NO OWARI’s classic “Birdman,” known as the theme song for the news program Mezamashi TV, is a piece with a refreshing melody that evokes the morning.

It’s also one of the easiest songs to sing.

Although it may not seem so because Fukase’s voice is high, the song is actually written within a narrow vocal range.

That makes it approachable even for those who struggle with high notes.

The lower notes in the first verse (A-melody) can be a bit challenging, so if that concerns you, try raising the key by one or two semitones.
