[Official] THE BLUE HEARTS 'Rose of Passion' [6th Single (1990/7/25)] THE BLUE HEARTS / Jyounetsu no Bara

This is one of the signature songs by THE BLUE HEARTS, the legendary punk rock band that was active in the early 1990s.

It was also used as the theme song for the school-set TV drama “High School Graffiti 2,” and it gives the impression of capturing the momentum of youth.

A distinctive feature of the song is that the chorus appears only once, near the end, which makes it feel like it stores up energy and then explodes at the finish.

It’s a track that strongly conveys hope for the future, as if building experience and nurturing the growth of the heart.

The Never-Ending SongTHE BLUE HEARTS5rank/position

Unending Song (with Lyrics)

A four-piece rock band, THE BLUE HEARTS, enjoyed explosive popularity mainly among junior and senior high school students nationwide, and their legend has lived on even after their breakup in 1995.

This song, included on their debut album THE BLUE HEARTS, is also known as the theme song for the radio program “Yankee Sensei! Hiroyuki Yoshiie’s Dreams Don’t Run Away.” Its message—no matter what happens today, switch gears and move on the next day—has the power to help you release stress from work instead of carrying it over.

With its driving punk sound, this timeless classic blasts away the feelings of new members of society and those suffering from the May blues.
