Hiroshima Drive

A vividly painted piece brimming with Hiroshima flavor that brings hometown scenery to life.

The lyrics overflow with Tamio Okuda’s love for his hometown, featuring one iconic Hiroshima spot after another, such as Mazda Stadium and the Hacchobori intersection.

Released digitally in October 2018, this track was created as a Hiroshima-dialect parody version of “Tokyo Drive,” with fellow Unicorn members from the same hometown joining in with rhythmic call-and-response.

The blend of the local dialect and a warm melody stirs a deep sense of nostalgia, making it a treasured song that offers comfort—not only to those from Hiroshima, but to anyone living away from their hometown.

Route 2

When I go for a Saturday drive, the number one up-tempo track I absolutely want to blast is Route 2.

It’s a song from Tamio Okuda’s first solo album, 29.

With Saturday night as its theme, it shines with wild imagery of riding motorcycles and driving cars.

Okuda’s signature rock ’n’ roll really gives you chills! By the way, Route 2 refers to National Route 2 in Hiroshima, Okuda’s hometown.

It’s the perfect song to keep things grounded yet full throttle, and it’ll amp up your Saturday for sure!
