LONGER THAN FOREVER　 BOØWY cover

This is a song whose title means “longer than eternity.” Among the tracks on their sixth album, PSYCHOPATH, it was one of the most popular, and the melody of the chorus is especially memorable.

While the lyrics seem to be themed around a marriage proposal, there are also lines here and there that suggest a breakup, making it a song with a slightly complex and striking set of lyrics.

No. New York (Michael Zimmerling Mix)

A signature rock number from the 1982 album “MORAL,” later re-recorded as the B-side to the single “BAD FEELING.” Its driving rhythm and Kyosuke Himuro’s shouts are the main attractions, making it a staple that recreates the heat of youth.

The overall vocal range is D#3–A4, which should be comfortable for many male singers.

Since it’s a band-oriented track, locking into the rhythm makes it fun to sing.

As long as you don’t lag behind the tempo, a slightly rough delivery will still land stylishly.

There are call-and-response shout sections mid-song, so getting the crowd involved is part of the fun!

[High Definition] BOØWY - “The Seasons Only Change You” [Music Video] BOØWY PV HD

BOØWY’s classic song “Kisetsu ga Kimi Dake wo Kaeru” (“The Seasons Change Only You”).

They’ve produced many hit numbers, and while this piece may be less well-known than some of their signature works, it continues to enjoy enduring popularity among many devoted fans even today.

The easiest point for singing this song is, above all, that it doesn’t require powerful vocals.

This is true of BOØWY’s music in general: while maintaining high energy, the overall volume is kept restrained.

In addition, the vocal range is narrow, so even men in their 50s should be able to sing it without difficulty.

BOØWY BABY ACTION

With its offbeat guitar reminiscent of ska and an arrangement that shifts to a two-beat feel in the chorus, the song anticipates later ska-core and ska-punk, showcasing a different side of BOØWY.

The lyrics are based on a summer romance Himuro experienced in his second year of high school, and Hotei himself has said that the guitar solo was inspired by Tom and Jerry.

A poignant ballad rumored to be lyrics about Kyosuke Himuro’s irreparable relationship with Tomoyasu Hotei.

The song portrays a masculine ethos that looks ahead: “If walking away alone as an act of self-sacrifice could free all wounds, then I will accept that fate.”

Honky-Tonky CrazyBOØWY14rank/position

Honky Tonky Crazy

This is BOØWY’s landmark first major-label single, released in June 1985, by the band that dominated the music scene of the ’80s.

The moment you hear the brisk shuffle beat and Tomoyasu Hotei’s razor-sharp guitar cutting, your body starts keeping time before you can think—an impulsive rock track through and through.

Kyosuke Himuro’s shouts amplify the fleeting rush felt by young people tearing through the city night.

Released following the album “BOØWY,” this single featured ““16”” on the B-side, showcasing the band’s multifaceted character.

When you want to break free from a constricting everyday life, why not surrender yourself to this sound? Its pure energy will set your heart free.

There’s often talk about whether BOØWY counts as visual-kei; while opinions vary, I included them here because I believe they exerted no small influence.
