Kasabuta Buta Bu – BUMP OF CHICKEN [Instrumental] (Cover)

A hidden gentle gem by BUMP OF CHICKEN.

It paints a heartwarming scene where the scab that formed on “your” knee after a fight with a friend starts talking to you.

In the end, the scab disappears once the wound has healed and its job is done, but it leaves you with a deeply warm feeling.

BUMP OF CHICKEN - Soliloquy

The lyrics are wonderful.

Only Fujiwara could write them.

He shapes what we unconsciously feel and makes us relate to it.

I don’t think there’s anyone who has ever apologized for something like this.

And the way he sings it so casually is cool, too.

Sung dramatically all the way to the end, it’s one of BUMP’s hidden masterpieces.

ColonyBUMP OF CHICKEN76rank/position

BUMP OF CHICKEN "Colony"

This stylish ballad featuring piano sounds is “Colony,” which was also used in the film Parasyte: Part 2.

The lyrics focus on life and portray a weakened self.

The song progresses with a calm, gentle melody throughout, spans about an octave and a half, and should be relatively easy to sing.

However, since the beginning and end consist of piano accompaniment only, be mindful of keeping a steady rhythm.

It’s especially recommended for those who struggle with up-tempo songs or tracks with wide, rapid pitch changes.

Tokyo HymnBUMP OF CHICKEN77rank/position

Tokyosanka

This song is marked by an emotive melody that gently embraces the loneliness and hope of those who move to the big city.

It carefully depicts the feelings of people who, while bewildered by the differences from their hometowns, strive to move forward in pursuit of their dreams.

Even as it faces the harshness of reality, it serves as a warm anthem of support for those taking a new step in the city.

Included as the B-side to the October 2007 single “Hana no Na,” it was released alongside the theme song for the film Always: Sunset on Third Street 2.

The following year, it was also featured on the album present from you.

It’s a song that stays close to those who feel anxious about life in Tokyo or who are living away from home.

With BUMP OF CHICKEN’s signature delicate production and resonant message, it gently supports the hearts of those striving in the city.
