LUNA SEA Popular Song Rankings [2026]

Formed in 1989, LUNA SEA declared a “final act” in 2000 and went on hiatus, but resumed activities in 2010 and has continued to thrive ever since.

As one of the leading bands of Japan’s visual kei scene, they have had a profound influence.

I would like to introduce their appeal along with a ranking of their most popular songs.

LUNA SEA Popular Song Rankings [2026] (1–10)

END OF SORROWLUNA SEA8rank/position

LUNA SEA – 「END OF SORROW」MV
END OF SORROWLUNA SEA

LUNA SEA is a five-member rock band known as pioneers of the visual kei scene, influencing numerous bands.

Their 7th single, “END OF SORROW,” became a hit, reaching No.

1 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart despite having no tie-in.

Because the song features frequent key changes and demands tight playing, be mindful to articulate each note clearly.

The guitar solo isn’t technically difficult in terms of phrasing, but it involves large position shifts, so take care not to miss any notes.

A beloved ballad released by LUNA SEA, the rock band that can be called a leading force of the visual kei movement! It’s so delicate yet splendid that you’d hardly believe it’s by a “makeup band,” evoking sunlight shining from beyond the horizon—perfect for listening in the morning.

IN SILENCELUNA SEA11rank/position

This is the work released just before LUNA SEA entered a year-long hiatus in 1997.

It was chosen as the image song for the TV Asahi drama “Chicago Hope,” marking LUNA SEA’s first tie-in.

With its refreshing melody and interwoven vocals, it’s a perfect track for the summer in which it was released.

LOVE SONGLUNA SEA12rank/position

LUNA SEA – 「LOVE SONG」MV
LOVE SONGLUNA SEA

Known as pioneers of the visual kei scene, LUNA SEA’s song “LOVE SONG” is a ballad crafted by SUGIZO that portrays profound emotions.

Featured on the 2000 best-of album “PERIOD ~THE BEST SELECTION~,” its delicate acoustic guitar tones leave a lasting impression on the listener’s heart.

The poetic, symbolic lyrics seem to reveal a sense of solitude, the depth of love, and a trust in a hope-filled future.

It’s a song best savored with care—especially during late-night solo karaoke sessions or with close friends who share your feelings.

Truly, it’s perfect for spending time as if engaging in a dialogue of emotions.

MECHANICAL DANCELUNA SEA13rank/position

There was a time when the image of a rock band bassist was that of a quiet player steadily laying down eighth notes, but many bassists who debuted in so-called visual kei bands overturned that notion.

At the forefront is J from LUNA SEA.

His charismatic appearance and aggressive yet melodic bass inspired countless kids to pick up the instrument.

If there’s a track where you can really enjoy J’s original bass solo, it’s Mechanical Dance.

The solo showcases J’s sensibility, incorporating chords within phrases that play off the backbeat.

The song and its solo were so influential that similar types of bass solos began appearing frequently in tracks by various visual kei bands afterward.

Be sure to check it out.

Originally, this single was released on cassette tape during LUNA SEA’s indie era.

It was later included on their first indie album and was re-recorded in 2011.

Among their many songs, this uptempo two-beat track holds a special place in the members’ hearts.
