Kanda Riverkaguya hime
Set to the melody of the folk classic “Kandagawa,” this parody song celebrates pandas beloved in Japan.
Although the idea sprang from the fact that “Kandagawa” and “Panda da wa” share the same vowels, the lyrics themselves are unrelated, creating a comical world.
It gives detailed introductions to the various pandas, and the difficulty of telling apart their similar names is another source of humor.
In the end, it firmly delivers just two points: pandas are cute, and sometimes their eyes can look a little scary.
Suddenly, SinbadSazan Ōrusutāzu
It’s a high-energy track where various words are sung to the melody of Southern All Stars’ “Katte ni Shindobaddo.” Although it’s a parody song, the parts that really trace the original melody are mainly the chorus; elsewhere, the words are strung together in a rapid-fire style.
It feels a bit like rap packed with dense wording, and it cleverly uses phrases that sound similar to the original lyrics, creating a playful rhythmic feel.
The juxtaposition of similar-sounding words that don’t necessarily connect in meaning also adds to the comedic flavor.
kawa-E (cute)Yabai T-shatsu Yasan
A pop-punk number by Yabai T-Shirts Yasan, released in December 2018 as the theme song for the film Nisekoi.
Its unique lyrics—describing the charms of a love interest in alphabetical order—leave a strong impression.
The chorus fully adopts the canon progression, with the bassline and cyclical structure amplifying the emotional buildup.
The A section is simply constructed with fourth progressions, and by switching to the classic canon progression in the chorus, it emphasizes the emotional arc of burgeoning love.
It’s a song you can listen to over and over without ever getting tired of it.
Imai Miki
This commercial portrays a day in the life of Yuriko Yoshitaka.
In a calm voice, she talks about getting up properly every morning, finishing work, coming home in the cold, and still doing the laundry—and how she wants to be praised for that.
The direction leaves a strong impression that it’s thanks to the scent of New Beads that she’s able to keep going.
The BGM is one of Miki Imai’s signature songs, “PIECE OF MY WISH.” Released in 1991, it reached No.
1 on the Oricon charts.
It’s a gentle yet powerful encouragement ballad about facing your weakened self, accepting it, and moving forward.
