Kobukuro’s classic and popular songs

Just as that sun continues to illuminate this world.Kobukuro

Kobukuro – So that that sun continues to illuminate this world.

Starting quietly with a slightly dark-feeling intro, the way the energy builds from there is very Kobukuro-like and makes it a really cool song.

The title also feels like a line from a novel—very modern and stylish, in my opinion.

A Flower That Blooms Only Here / Kobukuro

You can feel the true weight of the term “masterpiece” in this song.

Although the two members of Kobukuro aren’t from Okinawa, I think it’s remarkable how, as the theme song for the Okinawa-themed drama Ruri no Shima, it truly captures the spirit of Okinawa.

It’s a superb performance that I hope will be passed down for many years.

Kobukuro – No Matter What Sky

The opening a cappella part makes you feel the bond between the two.

Throughout the song, the harmonies are beautiful, and the message that the skies will clear someday comes through clearly via their breathing.

It has such a powerful, gospel-like melody that you almost feel it doesn’t even need a band sound, and the fact that the two of them can complete a song like this on their own is exactly what makes Kobukuro “artists,” isn’t it? It’s a piece that’s perfect for closing things out.

Kobukuro – Betelgeuse

Betelgeuse is said to be 642 light-years away from Earth, which means that because its light takes time to reach us, even if Betelgeuse exploded and disappeared, we wouldn’t realize it until 642 years later.

But that also means we might still be able to see its light for 642 years after it has actually vanished.

A song that, when I listen to it, reminds me of past loves and makes me feel a bit lonely.

It brings back the romance of those days and makes me think, “I was such a kid back then.” It’s a track that leaves me feeling very calm, as if tears might fall from somewhere.

Kobukuro - Apple Blossoms (cover)

We fell in love long-distance and couldn’t meet when we wanted to.

Why can’t you be nearby? I want to see you, I want to see you.

This is the first piece of music I ever gave her as a present.

Whenever we felt lonely, we would often listen to it together, cry, and distract ourselves from the sadness.

Kobukuro “Miracle”

It’s a song famous as the theme for the drama “DOCTORS 3: The Strongest Doctor.” The music video, with its intriguing visual effects and story development, makes it a compelling watch.

While the track has a driving sense of speed, its grand melodic progression is quintessential Kobukuro.
