Let me introduce Full Moon Song, a piece in which a mysterious tale unfolds.

Tama, a band that stood out for their one-of-a-kind musicality.

The song they crafted about a foreign bread is suffused with a slightly illicit, mysterious allure.

Over an exotic melody unfolds Kikuo Chiku’s boyish singing voice.

It carries the nostalgia of a children’s song, yet there’s an unsettling air that leaves the listener subtly on edge.

The piece seems to portray bread as a symbol of the curiosity and yearning for the unknown that awakens in adolescence.

It’s a track included on their July 1990 album Sandal, and is also known for having been performed on the TV program Ikaten.

Perfect for those who want to explore the deeper, not-just-sweet narrative qualities of bread.

Why not take your time savoring this surreal, imagination-stirring world?

This is a song about a boy who can’t find his study supplies and is torn about whether to head to school as is.

The way the musical style shifts along with the lyrics is entertaining, almost like a stage musical.

The harmonies in the chorus by the member with a distinctive singing voice are breathtaking.
