My heroTHE BOOM
THE BOOM is a rock band known for signature songs like “Shima Uta” and “I Want to Be the Wind,” recognized for their wide-ranging musicality from ska rock to Okinawan folk.
Among their tracks, a song I especially recommend is “Boku no Hero” (My Hero).
It was included on their 1989 album The Sun of the Siren.
The jazzy band sound that unfolds with a rhythmic tempo is addictive—a powerful rock number that makes you want to dance.
Be sure to pay attention to the lyrics, which convey a bittersweet longing for a “hero.”
Boys & GirlsTHE FUSE
A single released in 1990.
They were a four-piece rock band that debuted in 1989.
While they were often seen as a looks-first band, they were solid performers as a rock group.
However, they disbanded about three years after their debut, so I think many people might not know them.
This song has a strong rock feel while skillfully incorporating a pop melody, making it an upbeat, mood-lifting track.
Me, just as I amTHE SPIN
It’s an energetic rock tune that really fires you up.
The song is by the rock band THE SPIN and was released as a single in 2009.
It was used as the opening theme for the anime Basquash!, which centers on basketball played by robots.
The sound is as straightforward as it gets—in the best possible way.
The powerful guitar tones really hit home, and MARU’s resonant, full-bodied vocals shine over them.
The lyrics carry an emotional message—“Charge ahead toward the future!”—making it an anison that truly resonates with the heart.
My treasureTHE Inazuma Sentai
It’s a song included on the rock ’n’ roll band THE Inazuma Sentai’s 2021 album “Yoake no Uta.” Sung from a male perspective, it’s a love song to his wife and child.
The lyrics weave in episodes such as feeling the baby’s movements in the womb and the moment their child was born.
The title “Takaramono” (Treasure) refers to his wife and child, conveying a father’s love for his family.
It’s a very bright and warm song, so please give it a listen together as a couple.
Boys Are Back In TownTHIN LIZZY
A track released in 1976 by the Irish hard rock band Thin Lizzy.
It was inspired by their largely working-class fan base.
It has been covered by artists such as Everclear and Bon Jovi, and has been used in a Wrangler commercial.
Booo!TOKOTOKO
A boyfriend forgets his girlfriend’s birthday, and she gets mad.
But she just can’t bring herself to hate him—he’s so good at being sweet that she ends up finding him adorable.
This love song captures that delicate, girlish feeling.
It’s a track by Tokotoko, also known as Nishizawa-sanP, released in 2018.
A super catchy guitar rock number, its sound alone is refreshing to the soul.
Many listeners will probably relate to the feelings expressed by the protagonist in the lyrics.
And guys—don’t forget your partner’s birthday!
Our stepTRICERATOPS
In addition to their signature beautiful melodies and harmonies, the mood that highlights the melody draws you in immediately after pressing play.
This was their 23rd single at the time.
It was selected as the theme song for Nippon TV’s “UtaSta!!” in September 2006, and also used in commercials for AOKI suits.
Back then, I felt the band had reached a new territory roughly ten years after forming.
From the slightly shifting development in the latter half onward, the band’s true character shines through most strongly.
