Masterpieces and popular songs by flumpool

Let me introduce a song by flumpool, a four-piece rock band.

You may have had chances to hear their music, as some of their songs have been used as TV drama theme songs.

Speaking of flumpool, back in 2013, guitarist Kazuki Sakai paused his “visual” activities—anything where he could be seen—in order to focus on dieting.

Comedian Yusuke Inoue from the duo NON STYLE stepped in as a support member, which became quite a talking point.

Although Inoue is a comedian, he’s shown playing the guitar impressively in the music video for “Taisetsuna Mono wa Kimi Igai ni Miataranakute” (“I Can’t Find Anything Important Besides You”).

Inoue is known for his narcissistic character, but in this MV he looks undeniably cool.

Meanwhile, the band’s regular guitarist, Sakai, exceeded his weight-loss goals and successfully returned to the band.

The lyrics are pretty daring, but apparently it’s a song about a guitar.

It’s by the rock band flumpool, known for hits like “Kimi ni Todoke” and “Subarashiki Uso,” and it was included on their first album, “What’s flumpool!?,” released in 2009.

The bright, guitar-rock sound is fresh and pleasant.

Maybe that contrast is exactly why the lyrical worldview feels so striking.

Well… it’s not meant like that… or is it?

A song by the Japanese rock band flumpool, used as the opening theme for the TV anime Kakushigoto.

According to vocalist Ryuta Yamamura, the theme of the song is “the small happiness in everyday life,” and true to his words, it’s a heartwarming, soothing track that makes you feel warm inside.

The melody is easy to hum and gives a friendly impression.

When you sing it at karaoke, try performing it gently and without overexerting yourself.

It will surely feel just right.
