RADWIMPS – The Answer [Official Music Video]

As you stand before graduation, a major turning point in life, everyone asks themselves at least once: “Was this really the right path?” This song, included on RADWIMPS’ 2018 album ANTI ANTI GENERATION, was written as the theme for NHK’s “18 Fes.” School tests have model answers, but in life there’s no single correct one.

That’s exactly why this track gives you the courage to keep searching for your own answer, even while you’re lost.

Its arrangement—woven from piano melodies and a student choir—strikes a chord, and it’s often sung at graduation ceremonies.

I hope those taking a new step forward or struggling with life’s choices will listen to it as a gentle anthem that nudges you onward.

This song was included on RADWIMPS’s first album, released in 2003 before their major-label debut, and at the time the members were still in high school.

The lyrics, written from a high schooler’s perspective, are relatable and genuine—especially for students, who may find them particularly resonant.

The song opens with lyrics in English, but once it moves into the first verse, Japanese lyrics appear, so be sure to listen closely while following along with the lyric booklet.

RADWIMPS – A Masterstroke [Official Music Video]

Lullaby - RADWIMPS

It’s a classic RADWIMPS song that heralds the arrival of spring.

Released in March 2005, it’s perfect for that season when new encounters and farewells intertwine.

Yojiro Noda’s gentle vocals and the melody that resonates deep in the heart are especially distinctive.

The lyrics delicately express hope and anxiety about a new life, as well as the loneliness of parting from someone important.

In particular, the repeated phrase “It’s okay” leaves a strong impression, as if softly encouraging the listener.

When you need courage to step into a new environment, why not give this song a listen? It will surely warm your heart and give you the strength to take that first step.

ReunionRADWIMPS6rank/position

Reunion

It’s a RADWIMPS song that gently makes you realize the great value of youth—how, even when you feel like you’re drifting through life without thinking, you’re actually experiencing encounters and learnings that become deeply important to you.

There’s no clear definition of friends or youth; you just notice them when you kind of click, feel at ease, or get absorbed in the same things together.

And when those loosely tied relationships continue for years, even decades, that’s when you may finally think, “I’m glad we became friends back then and got to throw ourselves into our youth together.”
