Mr.Children 「here comes my love」Music Short Film

“Here Comes My Love,” released in 2018, was written as the theme song for the TV drama “The Family Next Door Looks Blue,” which aired the same year.

The highest chest-voice note in this song is G#4.

Among Mr.

Children’s tracks, it may be less well-known than some others, but its memorable melody and the high level of completeness make it outstanding even within their body of work.

In addition to its relatively low chest-voice range, the simple and striking melody should make the song feel easy to sing.

coelacanth

This is a song that reflects on the coelacanth, a fish often called a living fossil.

It’s a work by Mr.Children, a rock band that has been at the forefront of the Japanese music scene for many years, and it’s included on their fifth album, Deep Sea, released in 1996.

The feelings vocalist Sakurai had at the time of composing are embedded in it, giving it a very dark impression.

The coelacanth is something you would never encounter in ordinary life, leaving you only to imagine its way of living.

The song is sung as if wringing out the emotion of asking, “Where on earth is the answer?”

A Message to You Beneath the UmbrellaMr.Children94rank/position

A Message to You Beneath the Umbrella

Let me introduce a Mr.Children song whose horn section timbre lingers in your ears.

It’s a track included on the album “BOLERO,” released in March 1997, and it delivers a powerful message with sharp criticism of capitalist society.

The lyrics, which warn against the trend of pursuing material wealth, resonate deeply with listeners.

Through this piece, each of us is prompted to reflect on what it means to live authentically and what true happiness is.

It’s a timeless tune perfect for June—one you’ll want to sit with and contemplate.

A Monologue Woven With YouMr.Children95rank/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!

People crossing the crosswalkMr.Children96rank/position

Mr.Children “People Crossing the Crosswalk” Split the Difference

The so-called “legendary hidden gem” The People Crossing the Crosswalk.

It’s a song that focuses on crosswalks we usually pass by without a second thought, singing about the human stories we witness there.

It’s included as the second track on the single GIFT, released in 2010.

The highest note that appears in this song is G4—quite low by Mr.

Children’s standards.

In terms of range, it’s a very singable song.

The challenging part lies in the rhythm and delivery.

If you’re not used to a spoken, narrative style of singing, you might find it difficult.

The key to handling the verse sections, which are particularly wordy, is to approach them as if you’re speaking rather than “singing.” If you try to belt it, your voice may become too loud, or you might struggle to keep up with the speed of the lyrics.

Sing with the gentle feeling of speaking to someone.

Mr.Children Tour 2009 Apocalypse Water Bus

Mr.

Children, a national rock band beloved by a wide audience, included the song “Suijō Bus” (“Water Bus”) on their 2008 album SUPERMARKET FANTASY.

It’s a hidden gem and a fan favorite.

At first it sounds like a simple love song about the everyday life of a happy couple, but as you listen further, an unsettling atmosphere creeps in, revealing two people who, despite loving each other, were unable to stay together.

It’s a love song that captures the days of youth and the bittersweet ache that flickers in and out.

Mr.Children “Toriko (regress or progress ’96–’97 ver.)” cover band Beatnik

The song I want you to listen to on a Friday night with a sophisticated vibe is “Toriko” (“Captive”).

It was included on the album “Shinkai” (“Deep Sea”), released in 1996 by Mr.Children, the beloved, nationally renowned rock band adored by multiple generations.

While they’re known for songs with grand themes, this track delivers a sharp, edgy sound laced with irony.

Pay attention to Kazutoshi Sakurai’s soulful vocals etched into the jazzy arrangement.

It’s a love song that conveys feelings that are both heartrending and powerful.

If you’re looking for a song that portrays a mature romance, be sure to give it a listen.
