19 GROWING UP -ode to my buddy-PRINCESS PRINCESS

A quintessential Japanese girls’ band, Princess Princess, delivers an anthem to youth! Crystal-clear vocals and a powerful sound vividly capture the feelings of a 19-year-old.

Released in February 1988, this track was also included on the album HERE WE ARE later that same year.

Its lyrics, themed around friendship and growth, leave a deep impression on listeners—especially the snapshots of youth like the borrowed watch never returned to a friend and memories in a parking lot after the rain.

Packed with Princess Princess’s charm, this song is perfect for revisiting memories with friends or encouraging someone navigating the challenges of growing up.

From hook-laden band sounds to film scores that closely serve each work, RADWIMPS—a four-piece rock band—continues to showcase its multifaceted talents within the J-pop scene.

The track “Jibōjiki Jiko Chūshinteki (Shishunki) Jikoizonshō no Shōnen,” included on their first album RADWIMPS, is especially striking for its edgy guitar opening.

The lyrics, which depict the vague anxieties and fears felt during adolescence, may feel like they speak directly for anyone living through their youth in real time.

It’s a wistful number whose dizzyingly shifting arrangement mirrors an unstable state of mind.

It became known nationwide after Chiben Wakayama High School performed it as a “chance theme” with a wind band arrangement.

The original piece is a curious one: it was included as a sample sound in YAMAHA software and keyboards, and aside from the composer, no other information is available.

Among high school baseball cheer songs, it’s played at particularly crucial moments, and due to the way it heightens tension, it’s also known by the nickname “the demonic song.” Its up-tempo rhythm and bright, driving melody emphasize a headlong, battle-ready image.

November marks the shift from autumn to winter.

This song beautifully captures that bittersweet mood.

Released by SING LIKE TALKING in January 1989, it’s a medium-tempo ballad notable for its gentle, soothing melody.

The lyrics, which sing of the pain of heartbreak and nostalgia for days gone by, quietly resonate in the heart.

Rain is used as a motif throughout, further accentuating the loneliness of autumn.

The track is also included on the album “TRY AND TRY AGAIN.” It’s best enjoyed on a late-autumn evening, listening to the sound of rain by the window.

It’s sure to fill your mind with autumnal scenes and leave you in a deeply reflective state.
