Kariyushi58 “Anma”

Kariyushi58’s “Anma” is a warm song that depicts memories of and gratitude toward one’s mother.

Although it features a band sound with electric guitar, its gentle rhythm also suits an acoustic vibe.

Let’s craft a solid groove with thoughtful strumming to bring out the song’s world.

The chord progression is simple, but the lyrics are quite dense, so doing a solo acoustic-vocal performance might feel a bit busy.

Kariyushi58 “Uuji no Uta” Live ver. 2010.2.23 @ Akasaka BLITZ

This work depicts the hearts of people living in Okinawa and their kindness.

It’s a song by the rock band Kariyushi58, also known for their hit “Anma,” and the title track of their second album released in 2006.

Okinawa was a battlefield in World War II.

The people who live in that place, where so many sad and painful things happened, carry feelings that are beyond easy comprehension.

Yet, as expressed in “Uuji no Uta,” perhaps the most important thing is to feel pride in life itself.

Listening to it makes you feel, “I want to be that way, too.”
