The Way BackONE OK ROCK

ONE OK ROCK – The Way Back – Japanese Ver. – [Official Music Video]

This is a song released in 2015.

Their signature sense of speed is as strong as ever, and the lyrics, which seem to speak out to the world, are truly moving.

Even if you’ve only recently discovered ONE OK ROCK or feel hesitant because you’re not that young anymore, give it a listen—it’s seriously cool.

ChangeONE OK ROCK

ONE OK ROCK: Change [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

A single by ONE OK ROCK released on February 6, 2018.

It was also used as the second commercial song for HondaJet’s “Go, Vantage Point.”, so many of you may have heard it.

The powerful, crisp sound is striking—it feels like you’re listening to Western music.

Highly recommended.

20 years oldONE OK ROCK

20 years old

While incorporating elements of Western music, the riffs retain a distinctly Japanese rock flavor, creating a work where Japanese and Western contrasts intermingle: “20 years old.” With a range of mid1 G to hi D#, the vocal span is quite narrow for a ONE OK ROCK song.

However, more than the limited range, what truly enhances singability is the chorus’s vocal line.

In rock, it’s standard to ramp the voltage to the max in the chorus, but here the chorus is kept remarkably restrained.

In fact, there are no long sustained notes and no shouts.

It doesn’t require flashy techniques, and the range is narrow, so it’s undoubtedly an easy song to sing.

( you can do ) everythingONE OK ROCK

( you can do ) everything

This song, included on the 2007 album Zeitakubyo, epitomizes ONE OK ROCK’s early style.

With predominantly English lyrics, it unleashes a message of self-affirmation: even if you’re lost, if you keep believing, you’ll reach what you’re striving for.

Written and composed by Taka, and co-arranged with Satoru Hiraide, it spotlights the thrust of distorted guitars and dynamic vocals.

When you’re wavering, the song’s momentum gives you a push, making you feel “I can do it”—an encouraging anthem you’ll want to keep as a talisman.

the same as…ONE OK ROCK

[HD] ONE OK ROCK – the same as… “Jinsei×Kimi=” Tour Live

There’s a rock ballad that sings of an unchanging bond with a loved one and hope for the future.

Even as time passes and circumstances change, the universal message that the feelings for the other person remain the same strikes a chord with listeners.

The sentimental lyrics—mingling anticipation for the future with a touch of loneliness—are gently yet powerfully conveyed by vocalist Taka’s emotional voice, making this a classic.

The song is included on their sixth album, Jinsei×Boku=, released in March 2013.

It’s also well known for having been written as the theme song for the film Good Morning Everyone! (G’mor Evian!), starring Yo Oizumi and Kumiko Aso.

When you think of family or friends who live far away, listening to this track will warm your heart.

It’s a talisman-like song that quietly gives you a nudge as you take a new step forward.

Living DollsONE OK ROCK

ONE OK ROCK “Living Dolls” Japanese translation & with lyrics

This is also one of ONE OK ROCK’s hidden gems, “living dolls.” It’s included on their 3rd album, “Kanjou Effect.” Amid many intense tracks, this one is a calm rock ballad.

It’s also a love song, and the bittersweet lyrics are irresistible.

Since the lyrics are in Japanese, it’s easy to grasp the song’s content.
