Dragon Ash｢Fantasista｣

This is a commercial promoting Mizuho Bank’s support for Japan’s national team at the FIFA World Cup.

It features Ritsu Doan, Ayase Ueda, and Ko Itakura, each speaking about their determination for the tournament, along with dynamic shots of them striking the ball, resulting in a cool, polished piece.

The BGM is Fantasista, chosen as a theme song for the 2002 FIFA World Cup.

It’s one of the signature tracks by the rock band Dragon Ash, emblematic of mixture rock that fuses tight rap with a loud band sound.

Freedom of ExpressionDragon Ash43rank/position

(LIVE) Dragon Ash – Freedom of Expression

Included on the album “Viva La Revolution.” All the lyrics are in English, and the title means “freedom of expression.” In the song, they express their feelings toward rock ’n’ roll and hip-hop.

When you try a Japanese translation, you can glimpse a bit of youthful edge, which feels refreshing.

You might think they’re a hard-edged band, but because they have such pure, passionate feelings about music, perhaps that’s why Dragon Ash’s songs resonate so deeply.

The contrast between the quiet intro and the sudden surge around 1:18 in the video is electrifying!

Grateful Days feat. ACO, ZeebraDragon Ash44rank/position

Dragonash /grateful days

Isn’t this perhaps the most famous Japanese hip-hop track? Even people who don’t usually listen to hip-hop have likely heard ZEEBRA’s lines.

With this song, hip-hop reached living rooms across the country and became widely recognized by the general public.

HOT CAKEDragon Ash45rank/position

Covering 'Hot cake' by Dragon Ash

I think this is a song I can recommend to people who aren’t into the typical high-energy band tracks.

Personally, I love the gentle piano melody in the intro, and that part alone instantly made me fall in love with the song (lol).

Overall, it’s easy to listen to, so it’s a track I’d like first-time listeners to try.

Here I AmDragon Ash46rank/position

Dragon Ash｢Here I Am｣

In 2012, bassist IKUZONE passed away suddenly.

This was the first maxi single released after the band became a six-member lineup.

Though there was despair, we wouldn’t stop making music, and we would always move toward hope.

The words of “proof of existence” and “declaration of determination” scattered throughout the lyrics seem to reflect the members’ resolve.

The “you” in the lyrics can be heard both as an answer to the fans who were waiting and as a message to IKUZONE.

ICE MANDragon Ash47rank/position

Dragon Ash – Iceman Live

“ICE MAN” is a track included as a bonus on the album “Buzz Songs.” At the time, the only way to hear it was by purchasing the CD, which helped it become quite popular among fans.

It’s an upbeat song that fully embraces a rock sound.

La BambaDragon Ash48rank/position

Dragon Ash｢La Bamba｣

A classic that has long been beloved as a Mexican folk song and has been passed down by numerous artists, including Los Lobos.

Dragon Ash reconstructed this global standard as a piece of mixture rock with Japanese lyrics.

While retaining the upbeat, Latin-tinged rhythm of the original, it’s arranged with a fierce band sound that can shake live houses and festival venues.

Although it was the B-side to the 2008 single “Velvet Touch,” it became widely known after being used in a commercial for the au W64SA.

It was later included on the album FREEDOM.

Just listening to it gets you pumped up, making it perfect for parties where you want to hype things up with friends, or for moments when you want to soak in a liberating mood!

Life goes onDragon Ash49rank/position

Dragon Ash｢Life goes on｣

The song “Life goes on,” which really gets crowds going at live shows and festivals, is Dragon Ash’s 10th single, released in 2002, and it was used in a commercial for J-PHONE’s “Sha-mail,” the predecessor to today’s SoftBank.

While most of the lyrics are in English, the occasional Japanese lines give it a familiar feel, making it the kind of catchy tune you find yourself humming.

It lifts your mood, and by the time it’s over, you’ll naturally be feeling great.

LilyDragon Ash50rank/position

Dragon Ash｢Lily｣

Known for their danceable, hard-hitting lyrics, Dragon Ash is a band synonymous with summer festivals.

Their song “Lily” is the group’s 26th single, released in 2013.

It’s a fan favorite that always gets the crowd going at festivals.

With a gentle, conversational feel, it’s a track you’ll want to listen to while taking in the lyrics.

It also fits perfectly with the drama of horse racing—combining tenderness with an undercurrent of aggression that suits the intensity of the race.
