One of Porno Graffitti’s signature songs, this classic captures the pain of heartbreak and a sense of nostalgia within a Latin-style melody.

“Saudade” is a Portuguese word that means “longing or nostalgia for something lost.” The overall vocal range is surprisingly narrow, from B3 to G#4.

However, the key modulates in the final chorus and the pitch rises, and the tempo is fast, so be careful not to fall behind the rhythm.

Did you know that when vocalist Okano sings, he raises his eyebrows? I definitely recommend copying this! Especially for high notes, lifting your eyebrows makes it easier to hit the pitch and produce a solid tone.

If you raise your eyebrows right when the melody changes, it helps you land the notes smoothly, so I highly recommend it!

The Latin melodies played on folk instruments whisk listeners away to a foreign land in an instant.

This song sets the protagonist’s heartfelt feelings—burning with an impossible love—to a passionate rhythm.

With lyrics that seem to chase after a beloved who has transformed into a butterfly, and a dramatic build that makes the world seem to change color as emotions rise toward the chorus, it’s quintessential Porno Graffitti.

Released as a single in June 2001, it’s also well known as the CM song for FT Shiseido’s “T’Cera Tokonattsu Coconut.” A classic that topped the Oricon charts and became a million-seller.

In live performances, there’s a chorus part that unites the entire venue, making it perfect not only for times of romantic turmoil but also for moments when everyone wants to come together and get energized.
