[Live Audio] Let's Go to Main Street / Mr.Children

It’s a song by Mr.Children included on the album Versus.

The light, crisp sound of the acoustic guitar and the bright brass that comes in during the chorus are striking, conveying a sense of rising excitement and joyful emotions.

The lyrics vividly depict a scene of driving with a lover, emphasizing both how much the narrator had been looking forward to the drive and how much fun it actually is.

Because the exhilaration is expressed so straightforwardly, the characters come across as endearing, too.

ResuscitationMr.Children79rank/position

Mr.Children “overture ~ Resurrection” Mr.Children TOUR POPSAURUS 2012

This commercial shows people who, upon turning 30, continue to take on new challenges, while also conveying how Attack supports them.

The efforts—and the resulting stains—of soccer player Keisuke Honda, performer Naomi Watanabe, and French chef Shintaro Ababa evoke a positive, forward-looking attitude toward challenges.

The song that further accentuates the refreshing mood of the visuals, which feel like stepping into the future, is Mr.Children’s “Sosei” (“Resurrection”).

It’s a song that portrays standing back up after a fall and continuing to challenge oneself, expressing a strong will to face difficulties.

Mr.Children “Theory of Evolution” from Stadium Tour 2015 Incomplete

This celebrated song by Mr.Children was included on the album “REFLECTION” in June 2015 and became well-loved as the theme for NTV’s “NEWS ZERO.” Written by Kazutoshi Sakurai, the piece centers on wishes passed down across generations and gentle hope, tenderly enveloping hearts weary from everyday reality.

While grounded in a comfortable band sound, it’s marked by a warm, memorable melody and a quiet strength that gives you a reassuring push forward.

Selected for their 2022 best-of collection, the track has moved many in live performances as well.

When you feel anxious about the future or want to lift your gaze and start walking ahead, this song will surely give you courage.

Be sure to listen closely.

Dry kiss Mr.Children Acoustic solo

Included on the 2002 album “IT’S A WONDERFUL WORLD,” this song is quite popular among fans.

The lyrics have a very mature vibe and can be interpreted in various ways, so I think everyone will have their own impressions.

REMMr.Children82rank/position

Mr.Children 「REM」 MUSIC VIDEO

Among Mr.Children’s songs, one I especially recommend for its wide vocal range is REM.

The song spans a remarkably broad range from mid1 F# to hi B, with the highest note, hi B, appearing repeatedly in the A, C, and D sections.

The pitch moves up and down dramatically, and notes like hi B and hi A show up right after mid2 F# or mid2 G as if it’s nothing, so you’ll need excellent pitch control.

There are also many shout-like parts, which demand strong vocal cords.

If you’re confident in your singing ability, definitely give it a try.

To the west, to the eastMr.Children83rank/position

Mr.Children “To the West, To the East” MR.CHILDREN DOME TOUR 2005 “I ♥ U” ~ FINAL IN TOKYO DOME ~

This song features a beautiful acoustic guitar tone and powerful drum beats that leave a strong impression.

Showcasing Mr.Children’s experimental flair, it was released in February 1999 and reached No.

1 on the Oricon charts.

The lyrics convey a determination to follow one’s own path without being bound by society’s norms and values.

It might be a bit challenging to sing at karaoke, but the chorus lets you belt it out, making it perfect for relieving stress.

When you’re struggling in life or feel like you’re losing your way, why not pour your hidden feelings into the lyrics and sing your heart out?

From the Hill with a Cradle (Indies) Mr.Children

This is a song by Mr.Children titled “From the Cradle Hill.” It wasn’t released as a single, but among fans it’s considered a hidden gem.

It sings about the love between a man and a woman torn apart by war.

It’s a song that makes you feel that in war there’s only loss and nothing to be gained.
