The Same Story – Humbert Humbert

This commercial depicts the everyday reality of frequently encountering dirty laundry, and conveys how Attack helps make those days more comfortable.

Tori Matsuzaka and Masaki Suda, Kento Kaku and Shotaro Mamiya, and Yosuke Sugino each show how they spend their days, gently illustrating the kinds of stains that can happen.

The song that further emphasizes that relaxed, calm atmosphere of daily life is Humbert Humbert’s “Onaji Hanashi” (“The Same Story”).

Its arrangement layers a gentle acoustic guitar with smooth, expansive vocals, and the interplay between the male and female singers conveys a sense of consideration and kindness.

Humbert Humbert – Ganbare Niichan [Official Music Video]

This is a song by Humbert Humbert about a slightly timid older brother.

It’s included on their album “Kazoku Koushinkyoku” (Family March), released in July 2017.

He’s a bit slow at everything and sometimes loses to his younger brother—at first glance, he seems unreliable.

But the younger brother knows the cool, unbeatable side of him and respects him from the bottom of his heart.

This piece is filled with a loving cheer: I’ll help you with the weak parts, so keep doing your best from now on.

Please listen while thinking of someone dear to you.

Set to a gentle acoustic sound, this song gives voice to the inner conflicts buried deep within the heart.

Its theme centers on the frustration of wanting to be strong but failing to become so, and a profound sense of loneliness.

In contrast to its tender melody, the protagonist remains frozen and pitifully sulking, a portrayal that resonates deeply with listeners.

The track was originally included on the November 2010 album “Sasurai-ki.” It was re-recorded in 2018 for the album “FOLK 2,” drawing attention as comedian Naoki Matayoshi appeared in its music video.

It’s a song you’ll want to listen to quietly when you’re struggling with the gap between ideals and reality and feeling down.

A simple, warm folk song by Humbert Humbert that gently nudges those setting off on a new journey.

The unadorned vocals and acoustic sound quietly complement the bittersweet yet warm atmosphere of a farewell gathering.

This work has a charm that seems to affirm the daily routines that bring both tears and laughter, revealing a different expression each time you listen.

Produced as the theme song for the NHK morning drama “Bakebake,” airing from September 2025, it carries the air of Matsue, the setting of the show, and sinks softly into the heart.

Why not choose it as background music for sending off dear friends, while feeling bonds that remain unchanged even across distance?

Humbert Humbert is a husband-and-wife duo formed in 1998.

This work, which humorously portrays the ups and downs of romance, was reportedly created with the artist fully immersing themselves as the drama’s protagonist.

The lyrics—both insightful and warm—resonate deeply, carried by harmonies only a married pair could achieve.

Released in September 2021, the song was written as the opening theme for the TV Tokyo drama “My Big Sister.” It was later included on the album “Sturdy Us.” It’s a recommended listen on nights when you’re worn out by human relationships and want to relax.
