RADWIMPS – Empty Window

This is a RADWIMPS song created based on words submitted by high school students in Fukushima who faced school closures after the Great East Japan Earthquake.

Even seven years after the disaster, the lingering sense of loss and the parting with cherished everyday life are woven together with a quiet soundscape.

Their delicate expression, akin to a prayer, will resonate deep within your heart.

Released in April 2018, the song was later included on the album “2+0+2+1+3+1+1 = 10 years 10 songs,” released in March 2021.

With a background of being voluntarily shared as an effort to prevent memories from fading, this work gently stands beside those who have lost beloved people or places and continue living with unhealed wounds.

RADWIMPS – Steel Wings [Official Music Video]

The Calorie Mate Liquid commercial featuring Yojiro Noda from RADWIMPS was produced in 2021, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The images of Noda singing and of people persevering through the pandemic appear in succession, striking a chord in the heart.

The song Noda performs in the commercial is Steel Wings, written specifically for it.

Reading the lyrics—which he said he wrote while continually thinking about how to survive the pandemic—brings back the anguish and inner conflict of that time.

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 – Mobile Phone [Official Music Video] High Quality

The song “Cell Phone,” born from letters sent to the popular radio program SCHOOL OF LOCK!, is known as one of RADWIMPS’ quintessential youth anthems, wrapped in a delicate, wistful atmosphere throughout.

While the vocal line is somewhat high at points, the overall range is set quite narrow, with almost no sudden leaps in pitch.

If you carefully choose the right key for your voice, you should be able to aim for a high score at karaoke.

Yubikrigenman

The song Yubikiri Genman, included on RADWIMPS 4: Okazu no Gohan, is a hidden gem that portrays the sweetness and cruelty inherent in making promises, captured through Yojiro Noda’s uniquely sharp perspective.

Featured in the latter half of the album released in December 2006, the track also stands out for its playful production—like the actual finger-snapping recorded in the studio.

Many listeners will likely feel their hearts tighten at the contradictory emotions: while promises should offer reassurance, they end up binding both sides.

Though it never had a major tie-in, it has remained a beloved and important number, even being performed on their 2023 tour.

On a night when you’re struggling with a relationship and want to pause and reflect, immerse yourself in its world and listen closely.
