Anytime smokin’ cigaretteglobe

A highly recommended song for those who want to sing their hearts out at karaoke: globe’s “Anytime smokin’ cigarette.” Released on April 9, 1997, this single blends Tetsuya Komuro’s keen eye for detail with his musicality, adding a fresh hue to J-pop.

By deftly weaving together engine sounds and the sparkle of keychains, it offers a glimpse into the street fashion and youth culture of the time.

The lyrics—expressing a yearning that lingers in the heart and remains in someone’s memory even from afar—leave a lasting impression.

Centered on the theme of a “zoomed-in” everyday life, the song celebrates individualism while wrapping the atmosphere in a slightly wistful melody.

It’s an undying classic that enhances any space, whether you’re singing solo or jamming with close friends.

“Jungle Gym,” included on their major-label 7th album aurora arc, resonates with its depiction of soaking in precious memories even as you nearly lose yourself upon entering society.

Arranged as a solo vocal-and-guitar performance by Motoo Fujiwara, it draws you in despite its six-minute length.

It’s a hidden gem that fans would undoubtedly find themselves humming together at karaoke.
