BLUE ENCOUNT – NOBODY [NOISY SLUGGER] [2013]
NOBODYBLUE ENCOUNT

This is a short tune included on our third mini-album.

It starts off sounding like a bouncy, stylish track, but once the chorus hits, it shifts into a driving two-beat.

The lyrics tell a story of someone who didn’t think much of a person at first, but before they knew it, they’d fallen for them—only to confess and find out the other person was already taken.

It’s an intense song that still carries a touch of melancholy.

YOUBLUE ENCOUNT42rank/position

It’s a slow ballad.

Sometimes gentle, then soaring in the chorus—the contrast is striking and very memorable.

The lyrics fit well: not only the English in the first half, but also the Japanese in the latter half.

It’s a song about a loved one, and I highly recommend listening to it while following along with the lyrics.

This is a track that grabs your ear with a melody strung together in the order of the major scale.

By boldly incorporating the notes in sequence, it actually feels like it creates a fresh, novel melodic line.

The vocalist’s high tones resonate beautifully, making it a very pleasant song.

It’s a song where an unusually poppy vibe—rare for BLUE ENCOUNT—takes center stage.

Hearing this kind of track in Blue Encount’s sound brings a different kind of appeal, which is great.

The straightforward lyrics that match the tone of the song also have a charm that really resonates.

This is the coupling track included on their first single, “More Light.” Its relaxed tempo creates a different atmosphere from their usual style and leaves a strong impression.

The fact that the lyrics are in English is another highlight, and it matches the mood of the song.

DESTINYBLUE ENCOUNT46rank/position

BLUE ENCOUNT is a four-piece rock band with a polished sound that has garnered strong support, especially among younger generations.

Their 14th digital-only single, “DESTINY,” is a grand rock ballad written as the theme song for the film Touken Ranbu: Dawn.

While bringing piano and strings to the forefront, the arrangement is fully realized as a rock ensemble, creating both delicacy and weight.

It’s a track that showcases the band’s depth and sensibility—just listening to it is enough to make your heart tremble.

LOVEBLUE ENCOUNT

It’s an easy-to-listen-to, medium-tempo song.

All the tracks are sung in English.

Just when you think it’s a fun tune, it turns out to be about heartbreak.

The person you’re in love with has feelings for someone else.

It’s a common story, but still so bittersweet.

You can really feel the desire to make them realize that you’re the one who’s right for them.

A track included on the album “NOISY SLUGGER,” released on June 26, 2013.

With a bass that crawls along the ground, a guitar that sounds like it’s going wild, and powerful, fast-paced drums, it creates an intensely electric sound.

It looks even cooler in live footage, so I highly recommend checking it out.

T.KBLUE ENCOUNT49rank/position

It’s a BLUE ENCOUNT track that delivers a sense of speed while also conveying gentleness and warmth.

It’s included on the album “OFF THE WALL -ELLEGARDEN TRIBUTE-,” released in November 2022.

The lyrics, themed around the end of summer and the accompanying loneliness and sense of loss, blend with BLUE ENCOUNT’s energetic rock style to leave a strong impression.

It’s a perfect song for those moments when you feel the change of seasons and want to sort out your feelings.

BLUE ENCOUNT’s band has excellent instrumental precision, so it’s also recommended for musicians.

Why not try covering it and practicing?

Set to an aggressive sound, this track sings of determination to change and self-affirmation.

Created by BLUE ENCOUNT, it was released digitally in October 2024.

Chosen as the opening theme for the live-action drama Wingman, the collaboration between the beloved 1980s manga and a modern band became a hot topic.

With its driving tempo and powerful lyrics, it conveys the importance of living true to yourself.

It’s a song that gives a push to anyone who wants to move forward without fearing challenges.

The CD single also includes the new track Prometheus, and the limited edition features live footage.

It’s an ambitious release, put out as part of their 20th-anniversary tour.
