SHISHAMO Popular Song Ranking [2026]

Minna no UtaSHISHAMO61rank/position

SHISHAMO "Minna no Uta"

Although there are many painful experiences, it portrays someone trying to keep living in their own way.

The lyrics, in which the singer encourages themselves—saying they know best how hard they’re trying and striving to stand up—make it a song that rewards everyone working hard across the country, I believe.

The music video is also incredibly cute and a must-see.

Song of the Sub GuitarSHISHAMO62rank/position

Tried playing SHISHAMO's sub-guitar song on guitar

As the title suggests, this is truly a song about the feelings of a backup guitar.

It only gets to shine when the main guitar is out of sorts, yet it senses a difference between the sound it produces and the sound of the main guitar, and so it earnestly feels it should step back.

There’s no music video, so this is a play-through video.

SHISHAMO towel played on guitar

This is an absolute staple at our live shows.

More than a staple—we always perform it.

If you’re going to a concert or festival, this is a must-check track.

The song cutely encourages everyone to buy our merch towel because it’s cheap.

When the chorus hits, let’s all swing our towels around as hard as we can.

The video is linked on Twitter.

thump-thump; heart pounding; excited/nervousSHISHAMO64rank/position

SHISHAMO “Dokidoki” One-Man Tour 2018–2019: “Hey, you and that girl are only able to meet in dreams, so why were you kissing at dawn?” Ver.

A love song by SHISHAMO that pairs a powerful, exhilarating rock sound with clear, charming vocals.

The lyrics directly express the feelings of a girl in love, sprinkled with a relatable sense of longing and heart-throbbing excitement.

Despite its rock edge, the poppy, catchy melody blends in to create a pleasant, resonant feel.

It’s a number that makes everyone want to gently and warmly watch over the two.

DriveSHISHAMO65rank/position

SHISHAMO “Drive”

The three-piece rock band SHISHAMO has been winning empathy with lyrics that depict delicate, uniquely female psychology in down-to-earth words.

This track, included on their 7th album “SHISHAMO 7,” sticks in your ears with its catchy bassline and breezy guitar sound.

The lyrics, themed around a drive date that plays out vividly before your eyes, seem perfect as BGM for teens who’ve just gotten their licenses.

It’s a refreshing number whose cute melody will lift your spirits.

SHISHAMO 'Milk Coffee' (Audio)

SHISHAMO is a rock band that has gained popularity for lyrics that vividly paint scenes and for a distinctive three-piece sound that’s simple yet solid at its core.

“Milk Coffee,” included on their first digital-only EP, Boots wo Narashite, features a stylish blend of delicate yet tight ensemble work.

Its sentimental lyrics, which evoke memories of seasons spent with a lover, combine with the winter atmosphere to stir a sense of nostalgia.

A hidden gem among winter songs, the track is memorable for the wistfulness that permeates it.

MetroSHISHAMO67rank/position

Metro / SHISHAMO - Tried playing it on guitar

It portrays the bittersweet feeling of remembering the “you” I broke up with whenever I ride the metro.

The way the protagonist struggles to become strong enough to ride the metro without thinking of “you” is deeply moving.

I think most people have experienced a love they can’t forget.

This is a song that gently accompanies those feelings.

The video is a digest of the album; it appears as the eighth track.

holidaySHISHAMO68rank/position

SHISHAMO Holiday - Tried playing it on guitar

While the spring “Golden Week” consists of a string of weekends and national holidays, in recent years the late-September stretch of consecutive weekends and holidays has come to be called “Silver Week.” Either way, they’re great breaks for students and office workers.

Speaking of holidays, this song “Kyūjitsu” (Holiday) comes to mind.

Its lyrics—about “spending a long, solitary holiday while reminiscing about a romance that has ended”—are a bit lonely yet somehow comical.

It’s a recommended track for anyone who wants to take it easy over Golden Week.

By the way, when the band SHISHAMO first started, they used the kanji spelling 柳葉魚 for their name—still pronounced "Shishamo."

Full-Power BoySHISHAMO69rank/position

The best boy

Among the tracks on the tribute album “Minna no Sukima Switch,” one of the most talked-about is surely SHISHAMO’s cover of “Zenryoku Shounen.” While preserving the original vibe, it’s been turned into an energetic, pop sound that’s distinctly SHISHAMO.

The lyrics, which sing of the strength and hope to climb back up from rock bottom, are truly uplifting.

When you’re down or troubled, this song spurs you on, resonating with a wide range of listeners!

Things between you and meSHISHAMO70rank/position

SHISHAMO - Played “Kimi to no Koto” on guitar

A distinctive feature of SHISHAMO’s songs is their narrative quality, and this track is literally a story.

The lyrics describe someone who has been with “Leila” for a long time but has a true love elsewhere and is trying to go back to that person.

There’s nothing wrong with “Leila”; from the way the singer keeps telling themselves that everything is their fault, you can feel that, even while knowing it’s unforgivable, they still cherish her.

Since there’s no official music video, this is a play-through/performance video.
