Dog Songs: Classic Tracks About Beloved Pets (61–70)
FUNKY DOGSKubota Toshinobu
If you want someone to deliver a truly soulful number, he’s the one—many of you probably feel the same.
This is a track by Toshinobu Kubota, a singer who’s also very active overseas.
It was released in 2003.
It grabbed attention when it was chosen as the opening theme for the sketch comedy show Warau Inu no Jounetsu, which featured the duo Ucchan Nanchan, among others.
Riding an R&B groove, it sings of an unstoppable love.
The beat is so catchy that before you know it, you’ll find your body swaying along—and you’ll want to clap your hands too.
The dog loves ice cream.Makihara Noriyuki
This song, “Dogs Love Ice Cream,” is included on Noriyuki Makihara’s 18th album, released in 2011.
Makihara himself is said to be a big dog lover.
I feel the lyrics could only be written by someone who truly understands dogs’ subtle gestures and behaviors.
Dog SongIkehata Katsuaki
This is a song that became a hot topic for being a real tearjerker, told from a pet dog’s point of view about its relationship with its owner.
The singer is Katsuaki Ikehata, a singer-songwriter from Fukuoka Prefecture.
Delivered with a gentle, soft voice, the lyrics range from ones that make you chuckle to ones that well up your eyes as they convey the bond between a dog and its owner.
If you’ve ever had a dog or are living with one now, you’ll surely relate and be moved by its message.
The depiction of a dog who adores his young owner is truly endearing, and it will no doubt make you think of your own beloved pup.
LASSIEhide
“LASSIE” is a song included on hide’s second solo album, PSYENCE, released in 1996.
You can hear a dog barking in the middle of the track, but it’s said that it isn’t a real dog—hide himself is doing the barking.
It sounds just like the real thing.
bulldogfoorību su
Four Leaves, one of the earliest Johnny’s groups, released this in 1977.
The slightly wild vibe—unusual for male idol pop at the time—is reflected in the title “Bulldog.” Their rubber-band performance was particularly distinctive.
doghouseJITTERIN’JINN
Released in 2000, this “Doghouse” was the B-side to JITTERIN’JINN’s 20th single, “Aoi Canary.” The owner gently tells their beloved dog—who’s fallen in love and is heading out to see his cute girlfriend—to come back home if he gets rejected.
You could also interpret this as a love song.
Waltz of the PuppiesFrederic Chopin
It’s a famous classical piece that everyone has heard at least once.
You can almost picture Chopin, the composer, playing the piano while little puppies happily run in circles at his feet—a friendly, approachable piece despite being classical.
