I tried playing GLAY/summer FM.

A song by GLAY that depicts the scenery of Inage Beach, from their legendary outdoor concert in Makuhari in 1999 that drew 200,000 people.

It’s a track with a exhilarating sense of speed, evoking a run along the seaside road from Inage to Kaihin-Makuhari, with a refreshing breeze washing over your whole body.

GLAY / Sakurabito

It’s a heartfelt ballad filled with the feelings of people who live alongside the cherry blossoms.

It carefully portrays the choices and struggles of those who leave their hometown and those who remain.

Written by GLAY for a Fukushima reconstruction support project, the song was included on the bonus CD of the album “MUSIC LIFE,” released in November 2014.

It was later chosen as the ending theme for the information program “Joho Live Miyaneya.” At a concert in February 2015, the four members performed an acoustic version by themselves, said to have played it with their thoughts turned toward Tohoku.

As spring arrives and you begin life in a new environment, why not listen to this song and draw some courage from it?

In the cold season, there are those moments when you suddenly find yourself thinking of your hometown, aren’t there? This is a work that stirs up exactly that kind of nostalgia.

It’s a song by GLAY, a rock band that has been at the forefront of the Japanese music scene for many years, included on their 1996 album BELOVED.

As mentioned above, it’s perfect for listening during the colder months, from autumn into winter.

If you’re someone who left your hometown to chase a dream and now lives elsewhere, it will probably resonate with you even more.

A jealousy-themed song from GLAY, whose sexy vocals are irresistibly appealing.

The standout feature is without question the coolness of the chorus.

The blend of sexiness and swagger is captivating.

The music video is crafted with a musical-theater flair, making it highly engaging as a visual work as well.

It’s cherished among fans as one of GLAY’s hidden gems.

Her “Modern…”GLAY

GLAY / Her “Modern⋯”

Characterized by its intense tempo and exhilarating sense of speed, this track is one of GLAY’s signature early songs.

Released in November 1994 as their third single, it has become a fan favorite that’s frequently performed live.

It’s included on the albums “Hai to Diamond” and “SPEED POP,” and a re-recorded version was released with the 2010 single “Precious.” The lyrics sharply depict the daily life and emotional fluctuations of a woman living in the city, expressing the loneliness and conflicts over love that many people face today.

Paired with its energetic sound, it’s a song that powerfully moves listeners.

Highly recommended if you’re looking to get fired up at a live show.
