Masterpieces and popular songs by Fujifabric
Let me introduce you to some tracks by Fujifabric, whose songs carry a somewhat wistful mood that makes them so compelling.
Speaking of Fujifabric, the sudden passing of their vocalist Masahiko Shimura in December 2009 was truly shocking.
Even so, it’s moving to see that they didn’t stop and have continued their activities ever since.
Right after Shimura’s passing, at COUNTDOWN JAPAN, artists who were close to the band performed Fujifabric’s songs.
Among them, Tamio Okuda—who inspired Shimura to pursue music—reportedly broke down in tears during the live set.
Please enjoy the music of Fujifabric, a band beloved by many musicians and fans, and still cherished to this day.

Fujifabric’s classic and popular songs (61–70)
March of the RainFujifaburikku
A track included on Fujifabric’s second album, FAB FOX, released in 2005.
It opens with a mechanical, minimalist keyboard accompaniment, followed by the distinctive vocals of Masahiko Shimura.
Although the song exudes a very eerie atmosphere throughout, many Fujifabric fans find themselves wanting to listen to it on gloomy days or when they’re feeling down.
The lyrics, written by Shimura, are also compelling for their literary expressions.
There’s plenty of room for each listener’s own interpretation, so be sure to come up with one that’s uniquely yours!
COLORSFujifaburikku
The commercial song for minimini’s rental and real estate information ads: “Phone Call with Mom,” “Bittersweet Move,” and “Farewell to My Beloved Dog.” The track is included on their ninth major album, STAND!!.
Is it because of this commercial that listening to this song makes me feel like going back to my parents’ home?
Strawberry ShortcakesFujifaburikku
The intro phrase is so suspiciously seductive that it brings to mind “The Entertainer” right before a magic trick begins.
The lyrics seem to revolve around a theme like “a hopeless man’s worldly desires,” and the frequent little fills and the interlude have a mischievous, almost tongue-in-cheek humor that, to me, expresses the sloppy feeling of “men really are helpless, aren’t they?”
Maria and the AmazonsFujifaburikku
Almost like QUEEN? No, it starts with harmonies that are a bit suspicious to be called QUEEN, and then once the rhythm kicks in, a wild riff unfolds.
The guitar riff here uses sixteenth notes effectively and is seriously cool—guitarists will probably feel compelled to copy it.
The “Agajibebe” that appears in the lyrics refers to Antonio Carlos Jobim’s famous bossa nova tune, “Agua de Beber.”
STARFujifaburikku
You can’t help but get drawn into its energetic sound.
It’s the title track from their sixth album, “STAR,” released in 2011.
The song has an unconventional structure, yet it feels grand and wonderful.
It’s a work packed to the brim with their musical essence.
