RADWIMPS – Is It Okay? [Official Music Video]

This RADWIMPS track sets disarmingly straightforward expressions of love—and the jittery feeling that comes from being “too happy”—to a buoyant rhythm.

It’s one of the band’s signature songs, turning live venues into a sea of handclaps and singalongs.

The lyric asking “Is it okay to be this happy?” perfectly captures the joy and gratitude of meeting someone precious.

Though included on the December 2006 album RADWIMPS 4 ~Okazu no Gohan~, it also carries a fiery backstory: the original MV shoot was grueling due to rain and cold, prompting a “revenge” reshoot about ten years later in 2017.

It’s a song that makes you want to say “thank you” to the irreplaceable people in your life—be it a partner, family, or best friend.

Like a warm meal, it’s a classic that soaks into the heart.

RADWIMPS – You, Sheep and Blue [Official Music Video]

This commercial is themed “Lipovitan Days,” depicting people who push themselves to go one step further with Lipovitan D.

It showcases various challenges and efforts in work, sports, events, and more, and as everyone’s expressions turn into smiles, it conveys a positive feeling toward the future.

The song that further amplifies the upbeat mood portrayed in the footage is RADWIMPS’ “Kimi to Hitsuji to Ao.” Driven by a light, rhythmic band sound, the track unfolds with increasingly brilliant tones toward the chorus, evoking a bright atmosphere.

The words seem to bounce along with the rhythm, making it a song that radiates a sense of fun.

RADWIMPS – Aitai

This ballad was produced in March 2021, a major milestone marking ten years since the Great East Japan Earthquake.

RADWIMPS, who have continued to release works every March 11 with thoughts for the affected areas, placed this song at the end of their concept album “2+0+2+1+3+1+1 = 10 years 10 songs,” which serves as a culmination of those prayers.

The simple yet profound longing that Yojiro Noda reached after many years presses upon the heart, carried by delicate melodies of piano and strings.

Although it has no specific tie-in, it can be described as a number that gently stands beside those who carry feelings beyond words.

Please give it a listen on nights when you want to quietly recall someone dear, or when you want to face the emotions deep within your own heart.

Theory of the Mindful HeartRADWIMPS12rank/position

RADWIMPS – A Theory of Heart [Official Music Video]

This is the song used in the Universal Music “#Let’s Listen to Playlists” campaign commercial featuring Ren Nagase and Nanoka Hara.

It was selected as one of the representative love songs of the Heisei era; over a gradually intensifying sound, it expresses a range of emotions related to love.

It also conveys how, precisely because love is so strong, those feelings can sometimes act like a poison, affecting the heart and body.

Alongside great affection, sorrow is also sung—capturing, as it is, the raw state of emotions that can’t be neatly gathered into one.

RADWIMPS – It's All Right [Official Music Video]

A heart-stirring ballad by RADWIMPS, distinguished by a beautiful melody woven from delicate piano and strings.

It plays a crucial role in director Makoto Shinkai’s smash-hit animated film Weathering With You.

The album Weathering With You complete version, released in November 2019, includes a full-length version that differs from the one used in the film.

The earnest lyrics, which touch on the core of the story, and Yojiro Noda’s warm yet powerful vocals are truly moving.

Despite anxiety and doubt, the song conveys a resolve to face forward for the sake of someone important.

It’s perfect for those nights when your heart feels a little tired or when you wish to be someone’s support—why not listen to it alone, slowly and attentively? You’re sure to experience a feeling of being gently embraced.

RADWIMPS – Leap Day Person [Official Music Video]

Written for the album “The Last 10 Years ~Original Soundtrack~,” released in March 2022, this piece is a grand ballad woven from piano and orchestral arrangements.

While it grapples with the heavy theme of death, its lyrics beautifully portray the miracle of meeting a loved one and the preciousness of life, moving listeners to the core.

Created as the theme song for the film “The Last 10 Years,” starring Nana Komatsu and Kentaro Sakaguchi, it also reflects deep immersion in the work—Yojiro Noda reportedly read the script nearly a hundred times before completing it.

It’s perfect not only for lingering in the film’s afterglow but also for those moments when you want to reaffirm the irreplaceable tenderness of everyday life; take your time and listen closely.
