A song with a picnic motif. Picnic-perfect tracks (31–40)
DERRINGERBLANKEY JET CITY
Included on the 14th single released in 1998, “SWEET DAYS/DERRINGER.” It’s a double A-side.
I think it’s a perfect track for the Halloween season.
Bassist Toshiyuki Terui prefers “SWEET DAYS,” while frontman Kenichi Asai and drummer Tatsuya Nakamura prefer “DERRINGER,” so it might be fun to compare the two.
They sadly disbanded in 2000.
Ice cream meltin’ mellowPizzicato Five
Included as the sixth track on their ninth album, “Romantique 96,” released in 1995.
It’s a song that makes you want to stroll through the city while eating ice cream—something you could enjoy even in a sunshower.
The vocalist is Maki Nomiya, the group’s third-generation singer.
They took the 1990s by storm as part of the “Shibuya-kei” scene.
The group disbanded in 2001.
＋gothic Pink＋Tommy heavenly6
Included as the 6th track on the 1st album “Tommy heavenly6,” released in 2005.
Perfect for the Halloween season.
The Japanese translation of the lyrics is dark yet cute.
The 3rd track on the 4th single “I’m Gonna SCREAM+” features a Melancholic Guitar Version, so it’s also recommended to compare the arrangements.
A child with lucky earlobesKinniku Shoujo Tai
Included as the third track on the major-label debut album “Buddha L,” released in 1988.
Produced by the 18th lineup, it was later self-covered as a studio recording by members from the 22nd lineup onward.
A remastered edition was re-released in 2009.
BirthdayYusa Mimori
Included as the first track on the 10th album “ECHO,” released in 1998.
Written and composed by Yasuo Sugibayashi, frontman of the rock band Kujira.
Its fairy-tale lyrics and cute vocals are soothing.
How about orange marmalade sandwiches as a picnic companion? It’s also perfect as a birthday song.

I’m a positive girl!!YUKA
An insert song from the anime Dragon Ball Z.
Included as the ninth track on the 1992 release Dragon Ball Z Hit Song Collection 13: BATTLE & HOPE.
A reissued edition was released in 2006.
It was also included on the 2008 album YUKA Best, alongside tracks like the Kiteretsu Daihyakka opening theme, “Oryōri Kōshinkyoku” (The Cooking March).
It might be fun to enjoy a solo picnic feeling out on the balcony, too.
chicken sandwichtsushimamire
Included as the second track on the 8th album “Sex on the Beach,” released in 2010.
If you’re struggling to decide what to pack for a picnic, a chicken sandwich is recommended.
And if you’re frying the chicken while you listen, this is the song.
Follow the recipe in the lyrics: heat the oil to 180°C, fry for 5 minutes at a lower temperature, then 2 minutes at a higher temperature—double-fry to finish.
