brave heartMiyazaki Ayumi
This one cranks up the excitement from the very first intro.
It’s the theme song of the first Digimon Adventure series and the debut single of the artist Ayumi Miyazaki.
It’s a track that any anime fan is sure to recognize.
If anything, it’s a song that’s perfect for a school sports festival.
BOOGIE WOOGIE MAINLANDAnri
A song sharing its title with the album “BOOGIE WOOGIE MAINLAND,” released in 1988.
The album is packed with popular tracks—many people probably owned it.
The lyrics tell a bittersweet story of a summer romance, but they also include Halloween-themed words, which weren’t very familiar in Japan at the time.
It’s a lively, energetic tune with that Anri flavor, so it might be a great choice for Halloween BGM.
BL TriangleHayashibara Megumi
This is a track from Megumi Hayashibara’s 12th album, “Plain,” released on April 21, 2007.
It’s a poignant song about a love triangle—one person loves someone who loves someone else, who in turn loves the first person—but it’s sung with a pop feel.
Top-speed Rock ‘n’ RollYokohama Ginbae
As a symbol of the ‘tsuppari’ (delinquent youth) culture, this is a signature song by Yokohama Ginbae, the rock band that took the 1980s by storm.
It was included on their debut album Buttigiri, released in September 1980.
Riding on a driving rock ’n’ roll sound, it sings of the youthful energy that blazes through Saturday night at full throttle.
You can feel the recklessness of youth and that headlong momentum of not caring about tomorrow.
It’s recommended not only for adults nostalgic for their younger days, but also for young people who want to live fully in the present.
Unstoppable Rock ‘n’ RollYokohama Ginbae
This song by Yokohama Ginbae features an exhilarating, high-energy rock ’n’ roll sound and was released as the B-side to their debut single, “Yokosuka Baby.” Tracks that reference the “tsuppari” culture, which was prevalent at the time of its release, are a hallmark of the group’s appeal, and this particular song depicts tearing down the highway at night in a prized car.
The scenery glimpsed while driving and the rush that comes with speeding are conveyed through both the sound and the lyrics.
Blue Sky BlueSaijō Hideki
Hiromi Go, alongside Goro Noguchi, formed the “New Big Three,” and this is Hideki Saijo’s 26th single.
It was released in 1978, when Saijo was just 23.
As you’ll hear, the song centers on the theme of a forbidden love with a married woman—remarkably mature content.
The fact that 23-year-old Saijo delivered it so convincingly makes you think that, although times were different, people back then seemed a bit more grown-up than today.
Saijo’s husky voice is rich and sensual—truly a nostalgic track.
