RADWIMPS – Tin (Buriki)

Released on March 11, 2013—the second anniversary of the Great East Japan Earthquake—this is RADWIMPS’ song in support of recovery.

It’s a slow-tempo ballad that begins with a quiet piano arpeggio, deliberately holding back any flashy rock sound.

The arrangement is striking in how it lets each word and Yojiro Noda’s vocals sink deeply into the heart.

Rather than offering a straightforward “Let’s do our best” kind of encouragement, the lyrics consistently stand beside the weight of what was lost and the wounds that have yet to heal.

This work is the second installment in the band’s “3.11 Series,” created in remembrance of the disaster, and in 2021 it was included on the album 2+0+2+1+3+1+1=10 years 10 songs.

Proceeds have been donated to support natural disaster relief efforts through organizations such as the Japanese Red Cross Society.

The song was also used as the ending theme for Daisuke Shimada’s short film Tadaima.

Even for those who did not experience the disaster firsthand, it offers a chance to reflect on one’s own way of engaging with it.

HINOMARU – RADWIMPS (cover)

The B-side track “HINOMARU” from RADWIMPS’ single “Catharsist” is a message song about the national flag and Japan.

Lyrics such as “Mikuni no Mitama” (the spirit of our nation) and “the land where the sun rises” sparked controversy for evoking the Greater East Asia War.

It seems the song, created out of love for Japan, ended up being misconstrued.

RADWIMPS – Love and Me

“What is love, really…?” This is a message song that makes you ponder just that.

Created by the rock band RADWIMPS—also known for hits like “Zenzenzense” and “Is There Still Anything That Love Can Do?”—it was released in 2015.

The song reflects on those affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake, and every voice, sound, and word resonates deeply in the heart.

If you sing it while thinking of someone precious to you, it may strike you even more.

Please, pour your whole heart into it.

Your Name/Kimi no Na wa/君の名は。 Orchestra Concert: Sparkle/スパークル

In the scene where this song plays, countless viewers must have clasped their hands and wished, “Please! Remember her name.” It’s the moment when the situation becomes most fully revealed in the story.

As Mitsuha, together with Tesshi and Sayachin, works to carry out the evacuation, the comet begins to break apart.

The dreamlike visuals leave a deep impression, and amid the beautiful imagery and the swelling sense of heartbreak, this song felt truly epic.
