Kepla / From Now On (Lyric Video)
From here onkepura

Kepla is drawing attention with down-to-earth lyrics that resonate with listeners and a driving, high-speed sound.

Formed in September 2020, the four-piece rock band has a youthfully evocative backstory: all members are classmates from Tokyo Metropolitan Saginomiya High School.

They made their debut in July 2021 with the mini-album “Days of Youth,” achieving a remarkable milestone as its tracks surpassed 100,000 views on YouTube.

In September 2024, they made their major-label debut with EMI Records, fully blooming with the skills they honed during their indie days.

Another appeal is their fan-centered approach: the members themselves handle merch and jacket design, keeping a close connection with their audience.

Their songs, which feel like snapshots of fleeting moments of youth, feature fresh sensibilities and lyrics that evoke real empathy, steadily growing their fanbase—especially among younger listeners.

At the end of love, cherry blossoms flutter downSECONDWALL

This is a SECONDWALL song that overlays the fleetingness of a love coming to an end onto a beautiful scene of cherry blossoms fluttering down.

Blending in a male perspective, the lyrics evoke the bittersweetness of first love and the loneliness of parting, making your chest tighten without you even realizing it.

Vocalist YUKA’s voice, which combines clarity with strength, resonates deeply as it intertwines with the heartrending melody.

The track was included as the lead song on the mini-album “OVER,” released in April 2016, and was later featured on the album “Beautiful Lie.” It’s also known for being the theme song of the FOD original drama “I’ll Surely Fall in Love with You Again Tomorrow.” This is a song that gently envelops the hearts of those who want to cherish a past love as a beautiful memory.

This is Kobukuro’s 11th single, selected as the theme song for the Nippon TV drama “Ruri no Shima.” Released in May 2005, it reached No.

2 on the Oricon charts.

The members actually visited the Okinawan island where the drama is set, and created this work inspired by its atmosphere.

Even in a place that seems to have nothing, irreplaceable value is in bloom—this compassionate message is deeply moving.

Hearing the duo’s warm vocals may prompt many listeners to picture their hometown scenery and the smiles of their loved ones.

On This New Morning (ON THE ROAD 2022 Welcome Back to The Rock Show “EVE”)
On this new morningHamada Shogo

With a light, spring-evoking intro and a pleasantly steady rhythm, this is an uplifting anthem.

Released in March 2021, the song marked Shogo Hamada’s first single in about six years, and the CD reached No.

6 on the weekly charts.

Beyond the long, unending slope lies a sky of boundless, soaring blue.

The lyrics conjure such timeless scenery and seem to carry a message of standing with those of us living through difficult times, offering strength to move toward tomorrow.

It’s a warm yet powerful piece that gently nudges anyone trying to start walking forward again.

With these feelings as they areHamada Shogo

With these feelings as they are (ROAD OUT “MOVIE”)
With these feelings as they areHamada Shogo

This is a pop number by Shogo Hamada that earnestly wishes the night spent with a lover could last forever.

Even after the date ends and they share a goodnight kiss, the longing only deepens—“I don’t want to go home; I don’t want to let you go.” That straightforward emotion resonates in the heart, carried by a sound that’s both nostalgic and dazzling.

After being included on the 1993 album “Sono Eien no Ichibyou ni ~The Moment Of The Moment~,” the song was later released in April 1994 as the B-side to the single “Hoshi no Yubiwa.” There’s also an anecdote that it had been performed since the 1970s under the working title “Kaerenai Kaesanai” (“Won’t Go Home, Won’t Let You Go”).

Golden LionNagabuchi Tsuyoshi

This is a rock number by Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi, brimming with surging energy.

Released as a single in December 2004, it was also featured in a commercial for Kyocera’s au mobile phone “A1403K.” The dynamic visuals of Nagabuchi himself sprinting in the ad paired with the song’s sense of speed likely left a lasting impression on many.

The lyrics portray a valiant beast baring its fangs and facing a ravaged world with a trembling soul, awakening the wildness that sleeps in the listener’s heart.

The coupling track includes audio from the legendary all-night live concert on Sakurajima, and the work as a whole radiates tremendous heat.

When you want to break through the status quo or need courage to take a new step, listening to it might give you a powerful push forward.

Love LetterGReeeeN

This song is themed around a heartwarming love letter.

Released in November 2011, it was used as the opening theme for a TV Tokyo music program.

Since the members of GReeeeN have pursued music while working as dentists, the lyrics convey a sense of cherishing the small, everyday moments.

Filled with deep affection and gratitude toward a loved one, the words are relatable to anyone.

It’s a track you’ll want to listen to when you want to express your feelings to someone special or on an anniversary with your partner.

Be sure to listen to it together with someone important to you.
