MIYAVI’s Best and Popular Songs (21–30)
We Love YouMIYAVI
A popular song released in 2006 by the globally active artist known as the “Samurai Guitarist.” Its gentle melody and warm sound embrace listeners.
Hearing a Japanese sing-along at overseas shows is really moving, isn’t it? While he can showcase an intense side, he also treats us to tender, message-driven songs like this.
That’s one of the charms of MIYAVI.
Narcissism, self-congratulation, over self-consciousness (Instrumental)MIYAVI
Isn’t this track also like MIYAVI’s calling card? It’s only about a minute long, but the first time I saw him play nonstop using only slap on the guitar, I was blown away.
Not only the slapping—he also pounds on the body to lay down the rhythm, which is overwhelming to watch.
And then the clincher: a finger snap.
Way too cool!
My beloved (Sorry for being cheesy.)MIYAVI
It’s a gentle ballad in 3/4 time.
Since the artist once performed as a member of the visual rock band Dué le quartz, the song also conveys a distinct visual rock atmosphere.
A-haMIYAVI
For those of you who feel like your frustration with the world is about to explode, I recommend A-ha! In this track, MIYAVI unleashes the anger and social discontent that could be called the roots of rock and punk.
The guitar sound is quintessential MIYAVI, and just listening to it gets your energy up.
Give this song a spin and it might help you blow off some steam from work or studying.
We Can’t Stop It (Rewind)MIYAVI
There are probably many people who want to see MIYAVI play something other than guitar slapping.
For you, I recommend “We Can’t Stop It.” In this track, MIYAVI puts the slap technique aside and mainly plays fingerstyle arpeggios and with a pick.
It’s a guitar-driven song, but the drums are awesome too—be sure to pay attention to them.
In this place where even the sunlight cannot reach feat. SUGIZOMIYAVI
This track features SUGIZO, renowned as the guitarist for LUNA SEA and X JAPAN.
His guitar tone, which roars throughout the song, is particularly striking.
A piece from the visual rock scene.
21st-Century Style MarchMIYAVI
A track whose music video leaves a strong impression with MIYAVI wielding a modified Flying V guitar.
The thick, muscular guitar sound further amps up the rock flavor in this straightforward song.
Its positive message—tinged with a bit of irony—also stands out.
