[A Beautifully Mad Worldview] Lyrics That Amaze! Spitz’s Masterpieces: The Masamune Kusano World (11–20)
Wakabasupittsu
It’s a single released in 2008 and a classic that sings about graduation in a dramatic way.
When the everyday life I thought would last forever comes to an end, what I remember is your smile—.
It’s a fleeting yet beautiful song of youth.
At the same time, lines like the earnest you saying you’re “scared” add a touch of realism that feels very Spitz-like.
I want to become a cat.supittsu
This song was included as the B-side to “Aoi Kuruma,” released in 1994.
There are two characters—the protagonist and “you”—but listeners’ interpretations vary widely.
The lyrics have a certain wistfulness, and it’s hard to imagine a happy ending, which gives the song a sense of fragility or danger.
How do you interpret this song?

It’s a rare, unreleased song that only dedicated fans know.
It slips in suggestive lines from counting songs like “A-ka-sa-ta-na” and “I-ro-ha-ni-ho-he-to,” and even mentions an “amore” bent into a “U,” so at first glance it’s impossible to tell what the song is actually about! But precisely because Spitz always places death at the core of their themes, this is a track well worth reading deeply into.
Start walking, Cloversupittsu
This is a song included on the album “Honey.” It can be interpreted as a song that portrays life, using the clover—an emblem of happiness—as a point of reference.
It’s also well known that it was written after watching the film Forrest Gump.
Be sure to watch the movie and then listen to the song again—you might discover something new!
Singing Rabbitsupittsu
Utau Usagi, which was selected as the theme song for the film “My Teacher,” is a track included on Spitz’s 2017 release, CYCLE HIT 2006–2017 Spitz Complete Single Collection.
Its guitar sound evokes 1970s–80s folk, and the conversational vocal delivery leaves a strong impression.
The lyrics are appealing for the subtle touch of fiction interwoven into real life.
While it portrays the pain and heartache of falling in love, it also conveys a sense of clarity and beauty.
It isn’t a straightforward love song; rather, it’s a piece that speaks of life and love, revealing more of its charm the more you listen.

“8823” is a song included on the 2000 album “Hayabusa.” As the anecdote goes, it’s modeled after a manga character, and the striking line that only one person in the universe can set you free stands out.
It can also be taken as the ultimate love song, expressing in various ways a strong resolve that I am your hero.

Grasshoppersupittsu
The bouncy rhythm and exhilarating, fast-paced guitar sound feel absolutely amazing! Masamune Kusano’s distinctive word choices and catchy melodies have a captivating charm that grabs listeners and won’t let go.
Though it wasn’t released as a single, this track—featured in the latter half of the classic 1995 album “Honey (Hachimitsu)”—has long been a fan favorite.
It also drew attention in 2015 when ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION covered it for a tribute project.
The vocal range isn’t very wide, and its upbeat tempo makes it easy to try at karaoke.
Put it on as driving BGM, and it’s a pop tune guaranteed to lift your spirits along with the passing scenery.
