Golden Bomber’s famous and popular songs

Let me introduce songs by Golden Bomber, a four-member band also known as Kinbaku, who are active in a brand-new style as a visual-kei air band.

At first glance they may seem goofy, but in fact they deliberately choose not to sign with a major label, insisting on working independently, and pursue their activities with strong conviction.

Their signature song is “Memeshikute,” which was the catalyst for their big break, but they have plenty of other catchy tracks that you’ll find yourself humming along to.

If you’ve never really listened to their music before, give this playlist a proper listen.

You might just end up becoming a fan.

The one who delivered a bigger-than-expected surprise on Christmas night was Kenji Darvish.

On December 24, 2023, he released “Nodobotoke” (“Adam’s Apple”), a track with uniquely playful wording that I can recommend as a novelty song.

As for what Santa brought on Christmas… I’ll let you find out with your own ears.

In any case, this song might make your goofy hangout time with friends even more fun.

It’s the kind of track everyone can get hyped about together.

To begin with, Golden Bomber is such an unpredictable, wild-card kind of band that you never know what they’ll pull off.

Songs like “Memeshikute,” “Motokare Korosu,” and “101st Curse”—they’re all hilarious, and I could recommend every single one.

Among them, though, this song “Zandaka Zero” is one I especially want those who haven’t heard it yet to check out.

The phrase “zandaka zero,” which is also the title, might sound like it’s about money, but it could actually be hinting at a lack of affection toward the other person.

And the chorus—once you hear it, you’ll absolutely find yourself humming along.

It’s a song by the visual kei air band Golden Bomber.

It was included as the B-side on their 15th single, “Rola no Kizudarake,” released in 2014.

It’s a love song that earnestly expresses feelings for someone special.

The piano tone is beautiful.

It was used in a commercial for iichiko.

This is a parody of Golden Bomber’s “Memeshikute” released by Ryoji Takarabe, a music YouTuber who covers famous songs, during the 2020 stay-at-home period.

Thanks to the buzz it generated on Twitter and other platforms, a version covered by Golden Bomber’s Sho Kiryuin himself was released.

If you can cleverly rephrase the repeatedly used words into funny expressions, it’s sure to be a hit! Matching the momentum to the sound is important too!

Golden Bomber, the visual kei air band that shot to fame with the smash hit everyone knows, “Memeshikute,” created this song in response to fans asking for music they could use at birthdays and weddings.

Included on their January 2018 album “Killer Tune Shika Nee yo,” the track is notable for being offered royalty-free.

It repeats a message of gratitude and joyfully celebrates every moment in life.

With its poppy melody and heartwarming lyrics, it’s recommended not only for birthdays and weddings, but also as a special soundtrack to brighten everyday moments with your loved ones.

As the title suggests, this song is themed around someone who shook their head too much at a live show.

When you perform it at a thank-you party, make sure to dance along during the chorus where you keep repeating that your neck hurts.

It’ll be even funnier if you can show the lyrics, too.

If you can hype the crowd enough that everyone in the venue joins in and does the “it hurts” pose, that’s a big success!

Don’t mindGōruden Bonbā

Speaking of Golden Bomber, they’re a wildly eccentric band that never fails to blow people’s minds with their style and performances.

At the same time, they’re also known for their wonderful lyrics and gentle, warm melodies.

This song, “Don’t Mind,” is exactly that—a cheer-up anthem dedicated to a dear friend.
