Ending theme for Fuji TV’s Naruhodo! The World.
A four-member band formed in 1984.

Speaking of Norio Tsuboi, he’s best known for his comic songs like “Kinta’s Great Adventure,” but this track is a paean to Nagoya, and you can’t help but laugh when you listen to it.

In one go!Tonneruzu
A single released in 1984.
A comedy duo from Teikyo High School formed in 1980.
When performing this song, they appeared in a school-uniform style like the one shown on the jacket.
During a performance of this song on All Night Fuji, they got carried away and ended up causing an incident in which they broke a camera.
Shadow Beastningen ishi
Included on the 1989 album Ningen Isu.
A three-piece rock band from Aomori, formed in 1987.
They are one of the bands that came out of Ikaten.
When they appeared, their lyrics were packed with eerily theatrical Japanese, contrasted by British rock-style melodies, and bassist Suzuki’s “Nezumi Otoko”-like costume became a hot topic.
They’re still a band that shines with their distinctive strengths.
I’m going to Tokyo.Yoshi Ikuzo
A single released in 1984.
Born in 1952, an enka singer from Aomori Prefecture.
During a slump without any hit songs, he took inspiration from rap music on American records and created this track.
It sings about a young person fed up with having nothing in the countryside, determined to head to Tokyo.
The slightly off-kilter thinking of the youth in the lyrics makes you smirk and think, “Ah, that’s so countryside.”
Scallop Rock ‘n’ RollYasuoka Rikiya
A single released in 1983.
Born in 1947.
An actor and singer from Tokyo.
It was released as the theme song for “Hotate-Man,” a character played by Yasuoka on the TV show “Oretachi Hyokin-zoku.” At his funeral, Yuya Uchida sang it with the word “Hotate” changed to “Rikiya.” He was a tough-looking, really good actor.
Go, Dragons!Yamamoto Masayuki
Born in 1951.
A singer-songwriter from Aichi Prefecture.
In the year the Chunichi Dragons stopped the Yomiuri Giants from winning their tenth consecutive championship, a local broadcasting station invited submissions for a fight song, and his entry was selected.
Since then, with each passing year, versions with updated lyrics reflecting the new batting lineup have been released, and the song has continued to be sung as a well-known number even beyond Dragons fans.
