Endless JourneyMr.Children

There are times in life when we feel lost or anxious and come to a halt.
But facing difficulties can become a wonderful life experience.
With that sentiment, Mr.Children released a song in October 1998.
Over a grand structure exceeding seven minutes, it powerfully and energetically sings of the wonder of living and the courage to take on challenges.
The song was used as the theme for the Fuji TV drama “Naguru Onna,” selling 516,000 copies in its first week and achieving an astonishing hit with over 1.07 million copies in total single sales.
It is a masterpiece that resonates deeply with those about to take a new step in life, those striving toward their dreams and goals, and those searching for their own path.
Kick & LoudGEISHA GIRLS

The B-side track of the 1994 single “Grandma Is Still Alive.” A five-member rap unit formed in 1994.
This song was released by the comedy duo Downtown in collaboration with Ryuichi Sakamoto.
While the musical backing is a solid, cutting-edge sound, the two members of Downtown, dressed as geisha, sing and sprinkle in somewhat odd Japanese rap, making for a wonderfully enigmatic number.
RINJINLÄ-PPISCH

Included on the 1989 album “KARAKURI HOUSE.” A three-piece ska band formed in Tokyo in 1983.
While depicting the various lives of people living in city apartments, the lyrics ironically point out urban indifference—how we actually know nothing about those people—matching perfectly with the bright, cheerful ska sound.
Ninja LockUNICORN

Included on the 1994 album “THE VERY RUST OF UNICORN.” A five-piece rock band from Hiroshima Prefecture formed in 1986.
It’s a distinctive number that fuses a driving, up-tempo, powerful rhythm and a straightforward rock sound sprinkled with doo-wop elements, all delivered with intriguingly enigmatic lyrics.
Only Once, I Love You — A Song Dedicated to Samayo-chaningurimonguri

The B-side track to the 1989 single “Bvai Yai Yai.” It was used as the ending theme for the anime Obocchama-kun.
The band is a six-member rock group from Yokohama, formed in 1985.
The song is a love song addressed to the character Ojo Samayo.
It’s a fairly solid piece, and you could say it rides the wave of anime songs that became prominent from the 1990s onward.
Human Pumpokage-sama burazaazu

Included on the 2007 release Ranchu.
A seven-member comic band formed in 1982.
They are a quintessential comic band that performs songs with silly lyrics set to solid rock sounds.
After disbanding once, they reunited and continue to be active today.
Dance of Ozonetama

Included on the 1990 album Sandaru.
Ending theme for Fuji TV’s Naruhodo! The World.
A four-member band formed in 1984.
In general, many of Tama’s songs have a somewhat mysterious atmosphere, and while this track has a pop melody, listening to the lyrics makes you feel as if you’re reading a fable.
