SharonOfisharu Higedan Dism
Official HIGE DANDism’s songs are characterized by warm, empathetic lyrics and comfortable melodies.
This work is a mid-tempo rock number that depicts the feelings of a protagonist struggling with growing apart from their family amid busy days.
Released digitally in July 2024, it was selected as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Mountain Doctor.” It is also included on the album “Rejoice,” and is a track packed with the band’s appeal.
It’s a piece that resonates with those juggling the demands of work and family.
Boys & GirlsTHE FUSE
A single released in 1990.
They were a four-piece rock band that debuted in 1989.
While they were often seen as a looks-first band, they were solid performers as a rock group.
However, they disbanded about three years after their debut, so I think many people might not know them.
This song has a strong rock feel while skillfully incorporating a pop melody, making it an upbeat, mood-lifting track.
loadTHE toraburyū
This song is a popular, heartrending classic that exudes melancholy.
It looks especially cool when sung by men around their forties.
It was such a big hit that I don’t think anyone from that generation doesn’t know it.
Many people probably listened to it often during their youth.
It’s an easy song for men to sing, and the relaxed tempo makes it a great choice for karaoke, too.
If you can sing it solidly with a manly presence, it’s sure to get the crowd going.
Get WildTM NETWORK
Included on the 1987 album “Gift for Fanks.” Ending theme for the anime City Hunter.
A three-member music unit that debuted in 1984.
With an up-tempo, catchy rhythm and a melody that foregrounds digital sounds driven by synthesizers, this track is a delight to the ear.
huge nuisanceUNICORN
Included on the 1989 album Hattori.
A five-piece rock band from Hiroshima Prefecture formed in 1986.
The bright, crisp drum tone carries the song along at a lively uptempo pace, and paired with the speedy, poppy melody, Tamio’s vocals singing about the sorrows of solo job transfers make it both entertaining and refreshing—one of those tracks that lifts your spirits.
GLORIAZIGGY
Included on the 1988 album “HOT LIPS.” Theme song for the drama “Dō Kyū Sei” (Classmates).
A rock band from Tokyo formed in 1984.
Currently, only the vocalist, Juichi Morishige, remains in the group.
There is an anecdote that when the completed song was first played for the members, they pushed back against the strong kayōkyoku-style melody.
Driving All NightOzaki Yutaka
Included on the 1985 album “From the Broken Door.” Born in 1965.
A singer-songwriter from Tokyo.
This was a staple that was always performed live.
With an uptempo, flowing rhythm, hard guitar sound that chops out aggressive riffs, and lyrics that exude a nihilistic vibe, Ozaki delivers a powerful vocal—making it a very cool track.
