Spitz, who have continued to perform on the front lines and are beloved across generations.

Their song “Sawat-te Kawatte” (“Touch Me, Change Me”) is the band’s 25th single, released in 2001.

Since Spitz’s vocalist, Masamune Kusano, is from Fukuoka, Tenjin Station in Fukuoka appears in the opening lyrics.

It’s become something of a sacred spot among Spitz fans.

Kusano’s refreshing vocals are wonderful, of course, but the drums and rhythm section between verses make this a very pleasing track to the ear.

Spitz / Samenai (Never Waking Up)
never wake upsupittsu

This is the title track that opens their 15th studio album, “Samena i,” a number packed with their early impulses as a rock band and an inexhaustible passion for music.

Included on the album released in July 2016, it’s a song beloved by fans for its vital place in later tours as well.

In the music video, characters modeled after the members from their indie days appear, and a back-to-basics, muscular band sound rings out.

Masamune Kusano puts into unique words the shock of rock he felt in his youth, and it’s moving to see the resolve to keep running in pursuit of the dream even with age.

It’s an uptempo tune for adults who want to stay obsessed with something, or for those times when you want to reaffirm your own passion.

Wakabasupittsu31rank/position

It’s a single released in 2008 and a classic that sings about graduation in a dramatic way.

When the everyday life I thought would last forever comes to an end, what I remember is your smile—.

It’s a fleeting yet beautiful song of youth.

At the same time, lines like the earnest you saying you’re “scared” add a touch of realism that feels very Spitz-like.

In the third installment of Universal Music’s Heisei-themed commercial series, three Spitz songs are featured, and this is the second one that plays.

Released in 2006, it was also used as the theme song for the film Honey and Clover, which came out the same year.

The lyrics, depicting two people whose hearts remain connected even when they can’t meet, are romantic and utterly enchanting.

Combined with Masamune Kusano’s beautiful vocals, it feels all the more dramatic.

Spitz is one of Japan’s premier rock bands.

This song is included on their album Honey, released in September 1995.

True to its title, which evokes the rainy season, it’s a track that leaves a lasting impression with its vivid scenes set in a rain-soaked city.

Against a mid-tempo band sound, it portrays the protagonist dashing off without even opening an umbrella as the rain keeps falling.

If you’re into rock, this is definitely one to check out!

Even that famous band Spitz has written songs about breasts.

The lyrics are couched in euphemism, but if you read or listen to them repeatedly, you start to realize they might be about sexual intercourse.

It can be amusing to sing them in front of friends while thinking about that.
