GO!GO!7188 / 'Jet Ninjin 2010'

GO!GO!7188 is a three-piece rock band that won fans with songs that fuse a wide range of musical styles with melodies that evoke traditional Japanese vibes.

Their second single, “Jet Ninjin,” sticks in your ears with impactful lyrics and a somewhat nostalgic ensemble.

The bass line moves around a lot, so it’s important to learn it thoroughly—but it’s a perfect new challenge for beginner bassists.

If you also sing the chorus like in the original, the difficulty goes up even further, making it a rock tune that will definitely level you up if you can play it through.

This song sits in a position that feels like it wraps up 7188’s early period.

The lyrics sing of memories with an unnamed someone, expressed through sentence-final nouns.

Yet, as the chorus suggests, these memories aren’t spread out before the narrator’s eyes; they are nothing more than one of many fading recollections.
