[Hinamatsuri Songs] A roundup of classic tracks for the Peach Festival and unexpected Hinamatsuri tunes (31–40)
A Blood-Stained Doll Festivalningen ishi
Although “Hinamatsuri” appears in the title, the hard rock sound and vocals make it a song that doesn’t evoke the festival at all.
The lyrics extract keywords from “Ureshii Hinamatsuri,” and when combined with Ningen Isu’s distinctive worldview, it creates an atmosphere that feels far from celebratory.
It’s a recommended track for those who want to experience a new side of Hinamatsuri.
Morishige dollCM
This is the commercial jingle for Morishige, a specialty shop for large dolls.
The lyrics include references to various kinds of dolls, and the first verse is about Hinamatsuri (Girls’ Day).
As you’d expect from a commercial jingle, it’s really catchy.
Some of you might even recognize it.
GranddaughterŌizumi Itsurō
As the title suggests, this is a song for the case where the grandchild is a girl.
It portrays a kind grandpa who dotes on his granddaughter and thinks, “When spring comes, I’ll put up the Hina dolls for her.” It also mentions celebrating when his granddaughter gets married.
