Quruli – Rose Flower

As we take on more responsibility at work and at home, aren’t there moments when our hearts suddenly feel tired? For people of our generation who feel that way, the rock band Quruli from Kyoto offers a gentle companion.

One of their signature songs is Bara no Hana.

Released as a single in January 2001, this classic was later used as an insert song for the TBS drama Orange Days.

Marked by its steady beat and ennui-tinged melody, it carries the quiet of a rainy day, with choruses colored by SUPERCAR’s Miki Furukawa.

The lyrics evoke a world where reassurance and anxiety coexist—something that resonates more deeply now that we’ve gone through so many experiences.

Give it a listen when, in the midst of everyday life, you feel the urge to go just a little farther away.

Quruli – Miracle | Live

A song that gently depicts the quiet hopes hidden in everyday life and the strength that drives people to move forward.

Rather than waving flashy slogans, it carries a kindness that softly stays by the continuation of daily life.

Created by Quruli, this work was released as a single in June 2011.

It was used as the theme song for a film directed by Hirokazu Kore-eda released the same month, as well as in Taisho Pharmaceutical’s “Tiovita Drink” commercial, and was later included on the classic album Best of Quruli / TOWER OF MUSIC LOVER 2.

In 2025, it was also selected as a support CM song for the reconstruction efforts following the Noto earthquake.

Even in difficult circumstances, it is a song that teaches the importance of reclaiming everyday life and stepping toward a brighter future.

Quruli – BIRTHDAY

A masterpiece born in the Heisei era, this is a track that adds a festive touch to any birthday.

Created by Quruli under the influence of The Who and The Beatles, it was released in February 2005.

Its sound evokes 1960s rock, paired with Shigeru Kishida’s delicate lyrics.

The distinctive bass and the mid-song chorus leave a strong impression, and it’s said to be one of the more technically demanding songs in Quruli’s catalog.

Play this song at a birthday party or on a special anniversary with someone important, and it’s sure to create wonderful memories.
