The lyrics, which mean we don’t care about what’s around us and we’ll walk slowly at our own pace, seemed to describe my past relationship well, so I used to listen to it a lot back then.

It doesn’t matter what others say—though we’re slow, that pace feels comfortable—which makes it the perfect song for a gentle, heartwarming kind of love.

This is a track included on the 4th album, WORLDILLIA.

Every sound used is cool in its own right.

The song itself tugs at the emotions and really hits home.

With slightly more mature lyrics, it creates a great atmosphere.

It’s a high-tempo, hype track included on the 2nd album “foo?”.

I’ve heard it’s sometimes played during encores at live shows.

It’s the second-to-last song on the album, a track that lets you get pumped up at the end.

Feels great.

World☆Saturday GraffitiPorunogurafiti

Porno Graffitti’s “World☆Saturday Graffiti” keeps you company on a Saturday when you want to dream.

It’s the B-side to their 2003 single “Uzu.” A soft rock number that playfully and brightly sings, in true Porno style, about a slightly lonely Saturday spent alone.

On Saturdays or on days before a day off, you want to cut loose or enjoy time with someone you can really relax with, right? But this song captures the gap with a reality that isn’t like that—its lyrics about a boring day are relatable and encouraging.

It works as a pep song leading into Sunday, and it’s perfect to listen to before going to sleep on Saturday!

“LiAR” is Porno Graffitti’s 44th single, released in 2016.

It was originally going to be titled “Liar Liar,” but since that would have completely overlapped with B’z, the idea was rejected, and they settled on “Liar.”

Among Porno Graffitti’s many summer songs, I picked one that’s relatively mellow.

It’s an early track, so it has a slightly acoustic feel, but that vibe actually brings out a nostalgic, good old summertime mood, don’t you think?

Sunset, Starry Sky, and MePorno Graffitti

I regret a love that ended because our feelings passed each other by.

Dusk makes him all the more lonely and deepens his sorrow.

The singing, with each word vividly alive, seems to convey the pain of those feelings all the more.

Yet I can also see a hope of overcoming it.
