RADWIMPS – A Theory of Heart [Official Music Video]

It’s one of RADWIMPS’ most treasured songs, where the band’s raw early impulse fuses with a profound worldview.

Released as a single in July 2006, it was also chosen as the ending theme for a CBC Television program.

Though the title carries a philosophical ring, the lyrics directly portray self-awareness, existential unease, and an intense longing for an irreplaceable other.

Its emotional rock sound, weaving stillness and surging energy, resonates with those burdened by grief and an inescapable loneliness, stirring the heart.

It’s a signature number you should hear when you’ve parted from someone dear, tried to force yourself to look ahead by sealing away your sorrow, and want to pause and face your own heart.

This track is included on RADWIMPS’s 2006 album “RADWIMPS 4: Okazu no Gohan.” It’s a love song that candidly puts into words the bewilderment of falling too hard for someone and the overflow of emotions.

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.
