A country-style song from their first album released in 2002.

Harujion BUMP OF CHICKEN LIVE

This somewhat wistful song is BUMP OF CHICKEN’s “Harujion.” The harujion, which lends the song its title, is a flower that blooms from spring through the rainy season and carries the meaning “love in remembrance.” In the lyrics, the protagonist’s emotions are delicately portrayed as they recall a “cherished person” they’ve lost and “dreams from the past,” their heart stirred.

Spring is a time when many people graduate or change jobs.

Leaving a familiar place naturally brings anxiety, but this song gives voice to those feelings.

Name of the Flower / Bump of Chicken (Cover)

BUMP OF CHICKEN’s “Hana no Na” begins with the bittersweet sound of an acoustic guitar.

With a relaxed tempo, Motoo Fujiwara’s gentle vocals sing tenderly about two people meeting, as if they could softly heal the wounds of heartbreak.

The lyrics are truly wonderful, so be sure to look at the lyric sheet and listen closely to each and every word.

Rather than for when you want to dwell in the pain of a breakup, give it a listen when you’re ready to bounce back and move forward.

Tokyo HymnBUMP OF CHICKEN21rank/position

Tokyosanka

A four-piece rock band, BUMP OF CHICKEN.

Their hidden gem included on the 2008 coupling album “present from you” is “Tokyo Sanka”! Unlike the common type of lyrics that say “Tokyo is a harsh world…,” this folk-tinged song has positive lyrics that say “The people of Tokyo are warm, and it’s a wonderful city.” If you’ve moved to Tokyo and ever find yourself wondering whether this is the right place for you, definitely give this song a listen!
