the pillows / 1989

Named after the year the pillows formed in 1989, this song is truly about the members meeting and setting off to share their destiny together.

The process of people gradually getting to know each other is deeply moving, isn’t it? I especially recommend it to those who are about to have such an experience.

Formed in Soka City, Saitama, and once dubbed the “Southern All Stars of Saitama,” the DaijiMAN Brothers Band scored a miraculous, career-saving smash with this track.

Released in 1991, Sore ga Daiji—by a group that had long struggled to land a hit—took off thanks to its instantly memorable, catchy melody and lyrics with a powerful punch, ultimately selling a total of 1.8 million copies.

Since its release, it has frequently been used in commercials and campaign songs, and it continues to be cherished as a nationwide classic.

Among the new students attending entrance ceremonies, many are surely feeling anxious about an uncertain future.
