Dog songs: Classic tracks about beloved dogs (71–80)
To the end of this dreampati
In the 1980s, Nippon TV aired the “Dog Drama Trilogy.” This song, Kono Yume no Hate Made, was used as the theme for the first installment, Golden Dog, and reached a peak position of 27 on the Oricon charts.
Its beautiful vocals provide a striking contrast to Tatsuya Jō’s deep, gravelly narration.
I, dog, inuKatō Chiaki
This is the song used in the pet dog introduction segment within NHK E-tele’s “E-tele 0655.” In this segment, viewers’ photos of dogs are featured, and the lyrics introduce things the dog likes and dislikes.
The song is used when the dog is female, and the title is displayed in white lines on an orange background.
There is also a mobile app with the same title, which lets you combine dog photos to create videos, similar to the TV segment.
ChiroJungle Smile
This is a song by Jungle Smile, the music duo of Ikuno Takagi and Isao Yoshida.
It was included on their fourth album, Asunaro, released in 2000.
The song portrays a pet dog—an existence that, because of human convenience, ends up being altered in various ways.
Sometimes, through carelessness, we even cause them to get hurt.
And yet, the dog still loves us.
With lyrics that convey the owner’s bittersweet feelings, this sorrowful ballad leaves a strong impression.
If you have a dog, you’ll surely relate.
stray dogIzumiya Shigeru & LOSER
Shigeru Izumiya sometimes shows a “cute grandpa character” side, but back in the day he was known as a ruffian of the “burai-ha” school—a rowdy persona with a truly stray-dog kind of ferocity.
This song is included on his 1976 album Family.
Ah! O-inu-sama!bibuko
It’s a VOCALOID Hatsune Miku track.
It’s been crafted into a rock number peppered with classic, time-honored riffs that will make any guitar lover grin.
Judging from the lyrics, the setting might be the era of Tokugawa Tsunayoshi, the fifth shogun of the Edo period, when the “Edict on Compassion for Living Things” was issued.
However, the protagonist—the “Honorable Dog”—seems to carry a strong will to live freely, guided by its wild blood, without needing the protection of laws made by humans.
It’s the kind of song that makes you realize, when your beloved pet suddenly acts defiant against your intentions, “Ah, that’s human ego talking.”
Like My DogBilly Currington
This is a track from “Enjoy Yourself,” the fourth studio album by American country artist Billy Currington.
Written by songwriter Scotty Emerick, the song is loved by many people.
Mameshiba
Mameshiba is a mysterious dog character shaped like a bean that suddenly appears during TV commercial breaks and quietly shares trivia.
In this video, various types of Mameshiba that have appeared in the past introduce themselves (sort of) to the tune of a song.
