ONE OK ROCK – Change -Japanese Ver.- [Official Music Video]

Released in 2018, it was featured in the HondaJet commercial “Go, Vantage Point.” It’s a very cool track that sings about a forward-looking drive to seek the force that keeps us moving ahead, and an ever-evolving ambition for self-improvement.

I definitely want people who want to change and push themselves to give it a listen.

This is a song released in 2011.

He debuted with the status of being enka singer Shinichi Mori’s son and a former Johnny’s member.

A fan-favorite coupling track from “Yume Yume.” It was also used as the theme song for the film Crows Zero.

The lyrics are interesting because they’re told from the perspective of a crow, and the slightly brooding mood is truly cool.

True to its title, the sound and melody unfold on an epic scale that evokes distant horizons, while the drums charge through with relentless hits and syncopation—quintessentially ONE OK ROCK.

The lyrics are also well worth a close read.

Puppets Can’t Control You

A powerful track from the popular rock band ONE OK ROCK! Centered on themes of society’s injustices and personal freedom, this song fuses emotional vocals with a dynamic sound.

It was surprise-released in January 2025 and is included on the album “DETOX,” out in February.

The track was also chosen as the theme song for TBS’s Sunday drama “Gokami-sensei.” Showcasing Taka’s overwhelming vocal prowess and the band’s fiery performance, this piece shines.

The lyrics, which question modern society, deeply resonate with listeners.

A must-listen for anyone who wants to stay true to themselves.

Tiny PiecesONE OK ROCK

ONE OK ROCK – Tiny Pieces [OFFICIAL LYRIC VIDEO]

Speaking of ONE OK ROCK, they’re also known for having many songs with English lyrics.

English lyrics can often seem intimidating, but that’s not the case with “Tiny Pieces.” While the vocal range is fairly wide—from mid1F to hiD—the song features very few long sustained notes.

The high notes are also momentary, so the chance of going off-pitch after a high phrase is relatively low.

That said, shouts appear as a matter of course, and the vocal lines sometimes change more like ad-libs than standard melodic movements, so a certain amount of practice will still be necessary.

DystopiaONE OK ROCK

ONE OK ROCK – Dystopia [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO]

The 2024 release “Dystopia.” Its vocal range is mid2A to hiD, which is quite high for male singers, but likely just right for female singers.

Since the lowest note is mid2A, there’s ample room to lower the key, so men should adjust the key with a focus on ease of producing the highest notes.

There’s a shouted long note near the end of the chorus, so be careful not to cough or let your voice get too thin at that point.
