Shinin' On-kun Is Sad Lyrics Included LOOK

LOOK is a rock band that was active from 1985 to 1988.

Their active period was only three years, but they left behind iconic songs that represent the 1980s.

One of them is “Shinin’ On Kimi ga Kanashii.” It’s a song that portrays a man walking along the beach at night, reflecting on memories with the one he loves.

Rather than a summer song, it’s a song about remembering summer, so it’s also nice to listen to during the change of seasons.

I hope it inspires you to reminisce about those wonderful days.

Before anything else, from atop the roadIsseifubi Sepia23rank/position

Issei Fubi Sepia “Dear Sir/Madam, From Above the Road” [Official]

This track, distinguished by lively festival-like drums and flutes, weaves in themes that deeply reflect on the meaning of life and personal values through scenes of nature.

While questioning the purpose of living and our reason for being, it delivers a powerful message of courage and hope in the face of hardship.

Released in June 1984 as the debut single of Ikkyo Fubi Sepia, it reached No.

5 on the Oricon charts.

It was also used in commercials for SUZUKI’s scooter “Love THREE” and Kirin Beer’s “Kirin Shochu Tanrei Straight,” gaining popularity across a wide audience.

It’s a song that gives you the strength to face forward and keep walking when you’re at a crossroads in life, feeling lost or anxious.

Godiego ♪Galaxy Express 999♪

This is a single released by Godiego in 1979, used as the theme song for the film version of Galaxy Express 999 (The Galaxy Express 999).

The lyrics were written with the meaning of “Let’s live not only for Japan, but toward the world.” To this day, it remains one of Godiego’s signature songs and has been covered by many artists, including the EXILE group.

ff (fortissimo)

“ff (Fortissimo)” is a high-energy rock song that’s very popular.

At live shows, it’s so loved that fans often sing an entire chorus together.

In karaoke scoring, imitating Otomo’s shouts will actually cost you points, so just follow the pitch bar honestly.

The melody is quite simple, so it should be easy for anyone to sing! If you listen closely to the band’s snare drum and match your rhythm with its timing, it’ll be easier to sing.

Be careful not to cut the sustained notes in the chorus too short.

Basically, sing confidently and make sure your voice goes solidly into the mic—that should help you get a high score!

Endless Journey / Mr.Children (Cover)

This is one of Mr.

Children’s signature works, featuring impressive lyrics that depict the journey of life and a grand, sweeping sound.

Its universal messages—about the importance of moving forward, the courage to face hardship, and the quest to find your ideal self—resonate deeply.

Released in October 1998 and used as the theme song for the TV drama “Naguru Onna,” it became one of their defining tracks.

It’s a song that will surely support those who keep striving toward their dreams and goals, as well as those standing at a crossroads or searching for themselves.

crimsonX JAPAN27rank/position

X Japan “Kurenai” from The Last Live (HD)

Opening with a melancholic guitar arpeggio, this song blends X JAPAN’s signature high-speed metal sound with a dramatic interplay of stillness and intensity that stirs the heart.

Released in September 1989 as their major-label debut single and included on the album BLUE BLOOD, it reached No.

5 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.

The song was performed at the 1992 NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen and was also used in an NTT Docomo commercial.

It’s a track I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone who wants to feel the strength to keep moving forward while carrying sorrow and despair.

I want to take only you away just like this.DEEN28rank/position

DEEN “I Want to Steal You Away Just Like This <Kiseki Version>”

DEEN’s debut single “Konomama Kimi Dake wo Ubaisaritai,” released in 1993.

This song, a massive hit right out of the gate, remains DEEN’s biggest and most iconic hit.

These days, vocalist Ikemori has become quite famous as “the soba guy,” hasn’t he? (laughs) The composer is Tetsurō Oda, and the track strongly reflects the 1990s.

I bet many people still sing this song even now.

For women listening, it’s the kind of love song that makes you think, “I wish someone felt this way about me.”
