[Tried Playing] Fish [Fake Tetsuya]

There was a time when something painful happened and I shut myself away alone in my small space.

I remember hearing this song on the radio then.

I was alone in my room, but if I took one or two brave steps outside, there would surely be a wide world waiting.

This song taught me not to be afraid to take that first step.

One of the tracks on the album “Souvenir,” which includes Haru no Uta and Masayume.

It’s a song with a pop feel that captures Spitz’s essence; the strings and the arpeggio in the intro are beautiful, and the lyrics are very concise, conveying what they want to say in a straightforward, honest way.

It’s included on the album “Mikazuki Rock.” It’s a rock number that closes out the album.

When you feel like there’s no path ahead, like this is the end for you, it tells you, “Hey, there’s still a way,” and makes you want to give it another try.

This is the 38th single, released on May 15, 2013.

It was their first single in about two and a half years since the previous release, “Shirokuma / Beginner.” During that interval, they overcame challenges such as the postponement of the DVD “Soratobideo COMPLETE 1991–2011” due to the major earthquake, as well as Masamune Kusano’s health issues.

Crescent Moon Rock No. 3supittsu75rank/position

This song by Spitz, known as the “Magician of Melancholy” and often said to be unmatched when it comes to singing heartrending songs, was released as the B-side to the single “Stargazer.” Since the album “Mikazuki Rock” did not have a title track, it was later released as part three six months afterward.

Masamune Kusano’s clear, translucent voice lifts the summer mood in “You Are the Sun.” It was the theme song for the 2009 animated film “Oblivion Island: Haruka and the Magic Mirror.” A bright, danceable guitar rock track that lets you feel the refreshing summer sun.

It’s a quintessential Spitz summer song, gentle and encouraging, as if giving you a supportive push.

Spitz - Mikke (Penguin doodle)

It’s the first track on the 2019 album “Mikke,” their first release in about three years.

Written and composed by Masamune Kusano, its poetic lyrics feel fantastical and gentle.

As the song used in an NTT East Japan commercial—NTT being a Gold Partner of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games—it conveys a sense of hope, as if people are connecting and moving toward the future.

A hidden gem by Spitz that brings Masamune Kusano’s voice to the forefront.

It’s a slow ballad centered on piano and is very easy to listen to.

With Spitz’s characteristically profound lyrics, it somehow leaves you feeling encouraged.

Not very well-known, but a great song.

When I lost sight of how to live my life, this one song comforted me by telling me, “It’s okay to choose your own path!” There are many tough moments when you’re working as a member of society.

In times like that, let this song lift your spirits and help you find the motivation for tomorrow.

Among the songs by Spitz that colored the golden era of J-pop, this is the one you’ll want to listen to quietly on a long autumn night.

Its ethereal sound conjures up misty landscapes, and Masamune Kusano’s slightly husky voice makes the bittersweet melody stand out even more.

The piece portrays a protagonist parting forever from a loved one, moving forward while holding onto a promise.

It’s not just sad; there’s a sense of pure resolve in its worldview that really hits home.

Released to the world in November 1992 as the B-side to the single “Hinata no Mado ni Akogarete,” it was later included on the classic album “Kachoufuugetsu.” A perfect gem when you want to sink into a sentimental mood.
