ONE OK ROCK – Et Cetera (live Et Cetera)

A tear-jerking rock ballad that wrings out the sorrow of lingering feelings for an ex—wanting to shake them off but being unable to.

It’s a song by ONE OK ROCK, also known for hits like “Kanzen Kankaku Dreamer” and “The Beginning,” released in 2007 as their third single.

Since it was used in a docomo commercial, many of you may have heard it.

You can feel that desperate emotion of wanting to say “We’re done” but somehow being unable to, and it tightens your chest just listening to it.

ONE OK ROCK – Heartache [Studio Jam Session]

Their ballads, whether about unrequited love or heartbreak, really resonate.

This is “Heartache,” which was also the theme song for the film Rurouni Kenshin.

Vocalist Taka’s high tones convey the pain so well.

Even on their overseas stages, where they’ve become a globally popular band, crowds sing along in Japanese—second only to their masterpiece “Wherever you are.” It really shows the scale of what they’ve achieved!

ONE OK ROCK – Pierce (Live in Yokohama Arena) – English subs

“Pierce” is a breakup song by ONE OK ROCK included on their 2011 studio album Zankyo Reference.

From the very beginning, a melancholic piano melody flows, evoking the sense of loss after a separation.

The lyrics blend English and Japanese, structured in a way that further highlights the meaning of the English lines.

Many will likely relate to the self-questioning and the inability to find answers about the meaning of the breakup.

It’s a song that seems to stay close to those in similar circumstances.
