Mr.Children “Footsteps” Live from TOUR 2015 REFLECTION

This single, released in 2014, is a song of determination for Mr.Children.

It marks a milestone as their first release after parting ways with their former music agency and producer Takeshi Kobayashi, with whom they had worked hand in hand since their debut.

It’s a powerful declaration that they will move forward on their own, and it captures the true, unadorned essence of Mr.Children.

Tewodasuna!

A single released in May 2006, a collaboration between GAKU-MC and Kazutoshi Sakurai of Mr.Children.

Timed with the FIFA World Cup in Germany, it was used as the image song for Nippon TV’s information program “Soccer Earth.” It reached No.

2 on the Oricon chart and stayed on the charts for nine weeks.

The lyrics vividly depict players honing their minds and hearts while adhering to the rules—an impression that lingers.

It’s a song that will surely give you courage when you’re about to face an important match or need to rally yourself to achieve something.

This commercial conveys the comfortable driving experience of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer through the lens of a family.

The way it glides lightly through the forest, along with the smiles of the family during the journey and at their destination, clearly expresses that comfort.

The song that further highlights this bright, smile-filled atmosphere is “fantasy” by Mr.

Children.

With its gentle rhythm, refreshing melody, and soaring vocals in perfect harmony, it’s a beautiful track that evokes positive feelings.

A Monologue Woven With YouMr.Children88rank/position

Doraemon movie Mr.Children insert song (Kimi to Kasaneta Monologue)

Packed with warm feelings for a loved one, “Monologue We Wove Together” is a song you’ll want to revisit again and again over the years.

Featured in the film “Doraemon the Movie: Nobita’s New Dinosaur,” its lyrics, which evoke the story within the work, strike a chord.

As Nobita grows, he experiences encounters and farewells, and parting from someone important is always painful, isn’t it? Even if the time spent together was short, this song makes you feel that your feelings for that person remain unchanged, and it inspires hope for a bright future!

Flower -Memento Mori-Mr.Children89rank/position

Flower -Mémento-Mori- / Mr.Children

If you want to try performing a song by the hugely popular band Mr.

Children, I recommend starting with “Hana -Mémento-Mori-.” It’s mid-tempo, and if you learn it little by little, I think you’ll eventually be able to play it.

When you start a band, speed is usually an issue at first, so the key is to take it slow.

Beyond the Rainbow / Mr.Children

Beginning with a powerful piano tone, this song is packed with the charm of Mr.Children.

The lyrics, which depict the feelings of people pursuing their dreams and hopes, resonate deeply with listeners.

You can feel the determination to move forward by overcoming difficulties.

Included on the album “Kind of Love,” released in December 1992, it’s loved by many fans as a refreshing track that symbolizes Mr.Children’s early years.

It has been performed frequently live, and especially during the period from 1992 to 1994, it occupied an important place in their setlists.

It’s a perfect song for times when you want to strive toward your dreams or feel positive.

Why not let yourself be enveloped by Mr.Children’s warm vocals?

Mr.Children「Saturday」MUSIC VIDEO

On a May weekend when a refreshing breeze rustles the fresh greenery, it’s the kind of season that makes you want to drive with no destination in mind.

For a soundtrack to that drive, how about some breezy tunes from the beloved band Mr.Children? Their warm perspective—even embracing the languor of an uneventful day off—lightens the hearts of those of us leading busy lives.

Released for streaming in February 2026, this track drew attention as a lead single from their 22nd album, “Ubugoe,” and it became emblematic of the band’s new mode, with a nationwide tour of the same name to match.

Roll down the windows and listen as you cruise along a tree-lined road, and the usual scenery is sure to shine a little brighter.

On a day off when you want to reset your mind and body, be sure to give it a listen.
