A gem of a message song that spins feelings words can’t capture.

This over-six-minute epic from BUMP OF CHICKEN gently embraces the emotions we all hold for the people we want to see and the ones we’re waiting for.

Created after the band spent an entire night talking with the film’s director, the track was released in October 2007 as the theme song for the movie “ALWAYS: Sunset on Third Street 2,” topping the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.

It’s a piece you’ll want to sing with care, whether solo at karaoke or with close friends.

It’s a song that begins with a sentimental guitar tone and then draws you into a distinctive worldview.

When it comes to artists who enjoyed immense popularity during the peak era of CD sales in Japanese music in the 80s and 90s, CHAGE and ASKA come to mind! “RED HILL” is included on the album of the same title, “RED HILL.” In the lyrics, there’s a whispered “What should I do?”, expressing the inner conflict of choosing between options, with the fear that the choice might lead to hell.

Many people find CHAGE and ASKA’s songs hard to sing because of the high notes, but this one is mid-tempo, so I think it’s singable!

A number that runs for over 10 minutes—the longest in Kenji Ozawa’s catalog.

It’s included on the album Inu wa Hoeru ga Caravan wa Susumu, later retitled and re-released as dogs.

With Ozawa’s gentle vocals and a relaxed, steady tempo that reflects on everyday life, the song has a solid core about moving forward in life.

It’s recommended for those who want to soak in the atmosphere of Ozawa’s music and sing at an easy pace while immersing themselves in his world.

The mood gradually brightens as it goes, so enjoy singing while feeling that change, too!
