Summer Day of 1993 – class (Full) Lyrics: Hajime Matsumoto Music: Ken Sato cover

The music group class was created at the behest of a producer who wanted to form a duo like Simon & Garfunkel in Japan.

Their first single, “Natsu no Hi no 1993,” used as the theme song for the TV drama “Kimi to Itsumademo,” became a massive hit, achieving million-seller status despite being their debut.

For those in their forties—the generation of the time—it might be the first song that comes to mind when you think of summer.

With its distinctive, beautiful choral work, it’s a pop tune that’s perfect for two people to sing together at karaoke.

A third of pure-hearted feelings

Do you know the passionate love song that colored the late-’90s J-Rock scene? Released as a single by SIAM SHADE in November 1997, it was used as the ending theme for the hugely popular anime Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Swordsman Romantic Story and became the band’s biggest hit.

Also included on the album SIAM SHADE IV: Zero, this classic masterfully fuses hard-edged instrumentation with a catchy melody.

One of its greatest charms is that, despite the band’s high level of musicianship, the chorus is so familiar and easy for anyone to sing along to.

It’s incredibly well-known—just the intro is enough to trigger cheers.

Try singing it when you want to create a sense of unity at a get-together with friends from the same generation!
