[Cover] Gazed-at Shooting Star _ TOKIO

A TOKIO track that served as the theme song for the drama “High School Restaurant,” starring Masahiro Matsuoka.

It depicts overcoming personal anxiety and loneliness to chase dreams together with friends.

The lyrics’ worldview—where each person’s small dream connects like constellations shining in the night sky—seems to warmly illuminate listeners’ hearts.

Released in May 2011, the song was also included on the album “17.” Its mid-tempo, ballad-like arrangement, rendered with classic band sounds, is truly moving.

Isn’t it an encouraging anthem that gently gives you a push as you strive toward your goals?

Happy Birthday – Tokio

TOKIO’s “Happy Birthday” is a track included on their sixth album, Harvest, released in 2006.

TOKIO Yesterday’s

A song that begins with an introspective scene—gazing at a motionless swing in a quiet park.

This track was included on the classic album “YESTERDAY & TODAY,” released in February 2000, and it also became the theme song for the popular TV show “Gachinko!”.

When you’re struggling at a turning point in life, the song’s dramatic progression and band sound will surely give you a push forward.

TOKIO [Today, An Inexperienced Person]

It’s the 37th single, released in 2007.

The song was written and composed by Miyuki Nakajima, and its strongly message-driven lyrics and distinctive melody convey the struggle of living desperately amid harsh realities.
