Shikao Suga (SUGA SHIKAO) / SPIRIT

Praised by devoted fans as “like reading a short story” and “a song you suddenly feel like listening to,” this is a single Suga Shikao released in August 2000.

It was used as the ending theme for TBS’s “Sekai Fushigi Hakken!” and is also included on the album 4Flusher.

Yearning for freedom and belief in one’s dreams—along with the resolve to keep moving forward despite occasional anxiety—are expressed through poetic lyrics.

It’s a song you’ll want to play on a hot summer day, where slightly timid, contrarian feelings are sung over a catchy, funky groove.

Sofa – Funkaholic

This is a song included on Shikao Suga’s eighth album.

It’s about a lover who has left, and it lays bare the all-too-common, dependent feelings of a man.

From the C-melody onward, the overflowing emotions for someone precious tighten your chest.

Suga Shikao – Adayume sub español

It’s included on the fifth album, “SMILE,” and serves as the opening theme for the OAD ‘xxxHOLiC: Cage Daydream ~xxxHOLiC Rō~.’ The contrast between the melody, which feels like a daytime dream, and the chorus, which seems to snap back to reality, enhances the chorus’s persuasiveness.

Shikao Suga / My Heart Starts Pounding

This is their third single, which gradually made their name known after being put on heavy rotation on Kansai’s FM802.

I’m someone who, thanks to its funky vibe and its nonsensical yet somehow confrontational feel, couldn’t get it out of my head—and before I knew it, I’d become a fan.

Mashed Potatoes & Hash Browns

A love song with a potato theme? It may seem like a mismatched combination at first glance, but it’s a track that showcases Shikao Suga’s uniquely poetic sensibility.

Featured on his April 2019 album “I Don’t Want to Work; I Just Want to Live on Photosynthesis,” the song stands out for its lyrics that liken heartbreak and jealousy to mashed potatoes and hash browns.

It portrays the pain of love as something only the person themselves can feel, not easily understood by others.

It might be the kind of song you want to listen to on a night when you’re holding onto that bittersweet heartache everyone experiences at least once.

Suga Shikao – Ringo Juice (Sub Español)

Here is Suga Shikao—what a distinctive song.

As for the lyrics, there have been all sorts of debates about what they mean…

According to one theory, it was modeled after a certain incident.

This song is enigmatic and a bit thrilling; it might be interesting to ponder its meaning.

Suga Shikao / Before Dawn

This is an early work.

Looking back, Suga Shikao’s older material definitely had more bite.

Even though he debuted at a relatively older age, his signature style is that, despite its venom, it somehow energizes you.
