HURRY GO ROUNDhide with Spread Beaver86rank/position

hide with Spread Beaver – HURRY GO ROUND
HURRY GO ROUNDhide with Spread Beaver

The fourth single by hide with Spread Beaver, themed around the cycle of the seasons and the cycle of life.

Despite its unconventional structure that shifts from 4/4 to 3/4 time, it’s a polished track that shines with refined pop sensibilities.

Released in October 1998, it reached No.

2 on the Oricon charts and ranked 41st on the year-end chart.

It was also used as the ending theme for the documentary film “HURRY GO ROUND.” It’s a song I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone who wants to look back on days gone by with the arrival of spring.

The band never young beach feels as if it’s revived Showa-era kayōkyoku in the present day.

Their uplifting, wonderful numbers bring back those everyday moments you’d forgotten.

The vocalist’s voice somehow resembles Yūzō Kayama’s, evoking a sense of nostalgia.

I know, okay.Kyūso Nekokami

The down-to-earth words pierce straight into the heart.

It’s a song by Kyuso Nekokami, a rock band active mainly in the Kansai area, released as their third single in 2016.

It’s an energetic rock number, yet it carries a hint of melancholy.

Perhaps that comes from the negative emotions embedded in the lyrics.

Even so, the determination of “I’m going to do it anyway!” comes through at the same time, making it a message song that really hits home.

Why not stand up and join in, too?

CreepHyp - “Twenty-Nine, Thirty” (MUSIC VIDEO)
Twenty-nine, thirtykuriipuhaipe

This song portrays a realistic picture of standing at the milestone of entering your thirties and wrestling with how you should live the rest of your life.

Wanting to be reborn as something other than human so you could live without thinking, getting laughed at for talking about ideals and being too dreamy—many people have probably experienced the situations described in the lyrics.

When you have to make a decision, everyone struggles and suffers.

Realizing you’re not alone can make you feel a little lighter, doesn’t it?

Led by Ken Yokoyama, famous for saying “Ii ne!”, Crazy Ken Band released their sixth single, ‘I Hate Christmas!! Just Kidding ♥’.

It was also used in a mobile phone commercial, so many of you may have heard it.

It’s a soulful and cool Christmas song! Even if you hate Christmas or are spending it single, this track might get your body moving and lift your spirits.

How about singing it with friends at karaoke and basking in some nostalgic memories?
