Kishidan’s famous and popular songs

We’d like to introduce songs by Kishidan, a rock band that performs in a “Yank Rock” style—a fusion of punk rock and the Japanese delinquent (yankee) aesthetic.

Their unwavering commitment to the yankee concept, sharp sense of humor, and undeniable rock-band cool all coexist.

And where can you fully savor their appeal? It has to be their live shows.

One moment you’ll be laughing at their witty MCs, the next you’ll be captivated by their tight performances—and when the chorus hits, everyone joins in the choreography for a good time.

It’s a packed experience.

So, with those live scenes in mind, please enjoy this playlist.

It’s a famous song by Kazuyoshi Saito that many artists still cover today.

Personally, I have a faint, romantic memory of falling for it after seeing a senior lead a band and sing it at my high school culture festival.

Its gentle melody and relaxed tempo are truly captivating.

Saturday spent with friends burns vividly in “We Only Have Saturdays.” Some of you may recall memories from an intensive, camp-like period.

Released in 2005 as their ninth single, it’s a Saturday song packed with pure Kishidan style.

From the title alone you can feel the rock ’n’ roll—its dance-like guitar and bass lines are wonderfully satisfying.

It conjures the image of riding a motorcycle with total abandon.

A man’s heart living in the moment while cutting loose, a song of blessing that resonates at a farewell between friends.

It makes you want to fully enjoy the things you can do precisely because it’s Saturday.

This song is often performed as a wedding reception piece, but rather than the full-on party vibe typical of Kishidan, it’s an uptempo track that everyone can sing and dance to together.

Just when you think the music video is going to tug at your heartstrings, it’s packed with Kishidan’s trademark humor, which is another part of its charm.

The heartfelt friendship and love that sends someone off into a new chapter with all its might really hits home.

Senior of Andromeda ~ The Theme of Oss Peras ~Kishidan

This is the Kishidan-style song of gratitude to our seniors! Sappy songs don’t suit badass seniors—we want to give them a track that gets everyone hyped! Perfect for those moments.

It’s also spot-on as party BGM, with chant-along parts and all.

Just be careful not to drink too much or go overboard.

MY SWEET ALIENKishidan

Kishidan, a six-member rock band that has grown its fan base through the contrast between their impactful looks and pop-leaning songs.

Their track “MY SWEET ALIEN,” written as the theme song for the film “That Alien,” stands out with arrangements reminiscent of 1990s J-pop and a brisk beat.

The lyrics, filled with phrases that evoke the feeling of summer, draw you in, especially when paired with the film’s worldview.

It’s a nostalgic rock tune with a catchy melody and refreshing choral work that lingers in your ears.

The I love youKishidan

Kishidan is known for “One Night Carnival” and their standout pompadours with a tsuppari style, but did you know they actually have such a straightforward love song? No matter if the whole world turns against you—it doesn’t matter.

Listening to this bold, high-energy track will surely give you the courage to confess.
