Hikaru Genji [Rabbit Train] Full Version With Lyrics

It’s a lively, rock ’n’ roll-style track.

The brisk, rhythmic piano and the energetic brass section evoke rabbits hopping under a full moon.

The cool organ adds a glitzy, urban vibe that makes it sound really cool.

[Ensemble] 100% CourageHikaru GENJI13rank/position

2019 Minami Nursery School, Life Presentation, 4-year-old class, Ensemble Performance

“100% Courage,” the long-beloved theme song of the NHK Educational TV anime Nintama Rantarō, is probably familiar to many teachers and parents.

Its energetic melody has a simple rhythm, making it perfect for incorporating percussion instruments.

If you create spotlight moments for each part, the children will enjoy performing even more.

Also, outside of instrument practice, it would be great to set aside time for everyone to sing together and become more familiar with the song.

I’d be delighted if 4-year-olds come to love this piece and have fun performing it.

From the TV anime Nintama Rantarō: “100% Courage”Hikaru GENJI14rank/position

Courage 100% - Piano - From the TV anime Nintama Rantarō

Composed by Koji Makaino, this piece features upbeat lyrics and a catchy melody.

From the opening line, “Feeling down and sniffling,” you can sense the kindness of someone encouraging a friend.

The powerful phrase in the chorus, “That’s right, 100% Courage,” feels like it gives listeners a push forward.

Released in May 1993, it was used as the first opening theme for the NHK Educational TV anime Ninja Boy Rantaro (Nintama Rantarō).

The A section is a variation on the Canon progression, and the chorus is almost entirely Canon progression, making it easy to play on the piano.

Play it in front of children and you’re sure to be a hit.
