far; distant; by farGReeeeN

Released on May 27, 2009, this song was used as the theme for the film “ROOKIES: Graduation.” As the members have commented, if “Kiseki” is a song that depicts romantic love, this work sings of a broader, greater love.

It’s a track that lets you feel affection not only between lovers but also for family and dear friends.

The music video is presented in a drama style, so it’s also recommended to enjoy it together with the song!

So-la-si-doGReeeeN

Released on July 20, 2011, this work features the shortest track length among GReeeeN’s singles, with a runtime of under three minutes.

The song was produced by JIN, known for his work with ROTTENGRAFFTY and BACK-ON; however, it is not widely known that he is the older brother of GReeeeN’s leader, HIDE.

Love LetterGReeeeN

Featured as the theme song for the drama “Oh, My Dad!!” starring Yuji Oda, this piece is a warm, heartfelt love song that portrays deep affection for someone special.

Released in November 2011, it was also used as the theme song for the film “Antoki no Inochi.” Its dramatic melody, which seems to express feelings welling up naturally from the depths of the heart, matches perfectly with the world of the lyrics.

BE FREEGReeeeN

It’s often said that becoming an adult means “being free.” Things you couldn’t do as a child become possible once you’re grown up.

This song vividly and refreshingly captures the curious loneliness that comes with gaining that freedom.

You can really feel the emotions that lie on the border between childhood and adulthood.

prideGReeeeN

It’s a song with a powerful message: “The me up to today is what supports the me of tomorrow.” Released by GReeeeN in January 2012, this track is a cheer song that pushes on those who keep challenging themselves toward their dreams.

It inspires pride in the self that has overcome past hardships and setbacks, and gives the courage to keep walking toward the future.

The music video featuring Hayato Sakamoto of the Yomiuri Giants also drew attention.

If you’re standing at a crossroads in life, I want you to listen to this song.

It will surely give you the courage to face forward and the strength to believe in yourself.

Thinking of youGReeeeN

Included on GReeeeN’s second album, “Ah, Hello.

Long Time No See,” this song is a heartfelt ode to gratitude and love for someone special.

It was also used as the theme song for the NHK drama “Nanase Futatabi,” resonating with many listeners.

Celebrating the value of everyday moments and the time we share, it conveys the warmth and strength of bonds nurtured within them.

Released in June 2008, the track also appears as the B-side to GReeeeN’s eighth single, “Tobira.” Though a bit shy in tone, its pure feelings for a loved one come through on a gentle, endlessly replayable melody—making it a perfect song to listen to with a partner or close friends.

Longing for Spring GReeeeN (with lyrics)
Eagerly awaiting springGReeeeN

It’s a song that you can’t help but want to listen to during the cold winter.

Every time I hear this gentle melody, it brings to mind scenes of spring wrapped in a soft, pale light.

The song also carries a message of setting out on a new journey, so I’d really like middle and high school students who are graduating to listen to it.
