Lyrics that hit home! PornoGraffitti’s warm and fleeting masterpieces and popular songs (51–60)
heartPorunogurafiti
This song is included on the 3rd album, “The People Who Even Grasp the Clouds.” It’s a slow-tempo track that you can listen to in a relaxed mood.
However, the chorus is highly emotional and brimming with passion.
The lyrics are also deeply moving and really hit home.
A New DayPorunogurafiti
This commercial conveys a sense of comfortable, exhilarating driving through the image of Satoshi Tsumabuki behind the wheel of an Impreza.
It unfolds with a moment in everyday life—a casual curve—that brings to mind the hairpin turn in Monaco, and his expressions clearly communicate the excitement.
Further accentuating the refreshing atmosphere of the car speeding through is Porno Graffitti’s “A New Day.” The band’s signature powerful yet invigorating sound, together with the light, airy vocals layered on top, expresses a genuine sense of exhilaration.
As the title suggests, it’s a song that seems to capture the thrill of moving toward a new day.
Apollo (Hiroshima dialect ver.)Porunogurafiti
A song that radiates pride and love, sung in the Hiroshima dialect.
The local-version debut single by Porno Graffitti, released in September 1999, gained instant attention when it was used as the ending theme for the TBS program “Koko ga Hen da yo Nihonjin.” Its poetic imagery intertwines the grand dream of a moon landing with the stirrings of romance, made even more approachable by the warmth of Hiroshima-ben.
It’s the perfect track for anyone seeking a sense of nostalgia and hope for the future, or for those who want to experience the charm of Hiroshima through music.
Ohhh!!! HANABIPorunogurafiti
One of the quintessential sights of summer is fireworks, right? Maybe many of you are thinking about going to see them.
With that in mind, let me introduce “Ohhh!!! HANABI.” It’s a pop tune by PornoGraffitti that captures the butterflies of a man going out to watch fireworks with a woman.
Listening to it is sure to boost your excitement for a day out.
It also includes scenes of a festival, so you might enjoy focusing on those as well.
In any case, it’s brimming with seasonal vibes.

The crested ibis cries.Porunogurafiti
Pornograffitti is a rock band that has produced many hits marked by powerful sounds, such as “Music Hour,” “Saudade,” and “Melissa.” Written as the support song for the international conference “G7 Hiroshima Summit 2023,” “Avi ga Naku” is a track with a gentle melody and tone that differs from their usual hits.
By the way, the members are from the former Innoshima City in Hiroshima Prefecture, which is why they were chosen for this project as artists from Hiroshima.
This piece evokes the vast nature of Innoshima—why not close your eyes and listen closely?
Ohhhhh!HANABIPorunogurafiti
I invited her to the summer festival, and this song captures that pounding, fluttering excitement like it’s the very first time.
Asking someone out to see fireworks and then confessing your feelings afterward is a classic summer move, isn’t it? I’m sure many people have listened to this song and felt their determination to confess grow stronger.
Winding RoadPorunogurafiti
Their 21st single, serving as the first ending theme for the MBS/TBS anime Tenpō Ibun Ayakashi Ayashi.
A poignant heartbreak song that suits the chill of winter, tracing the path of a broken relationship and the inability to accept that there’s nothing left to do but part ways.
The harmonica in the intro and outro is played by vocalist Akihito himself, and its plaintive melody draws you deeply into the song.
