Gently – Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra

A gentle, slow-tempo number by a veteran band that’s been together for over 30 years and is Japan’s strongest ska outfit.

Their hallmark image of being emotional and powerful is basically spot on, but they also have songs like this—beautiful pieces that you can listen to quietly and serenely.

SKA ME CRAZYToukyou Sukapara Daisu Ookesutora72rank/position

SKA ME CRAZY [from 2023 HALL TOUR 「JUNK or GEM ～Autumn&Winter」] / TOKYO SKA PARADISE ORCHESTRA

An energetic, richly layered instrumental number that captivates with ska’s irresistible groove.

Released to the world as the B-side to Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra’s single “Utsukushiku Moeru Mori” in February 2002, this track sweeps listeners into a whirlwind of dance with its explosive horn section and highly danceable rhythms.

A powerful trumpet and a light, driving beat fuse in perfect balance, making it a staple that ignites crowds at live shows.

In March 2005, it was also released as a single CD in the UK, earning acclaim across borders.

It’s the perfect track for amping up the dance floor or party scene—or for moving your body to reset your mood.

Twinkle Star ~A Star to Rely On~Toukyou Sukapara Daisu Ookesutora73rank/position

Twinkle Star ~A Star to Rely On~

A vocal number by Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra that brilliantly fuses a sparkling night sky with a sense of speed! Sung by drummer Kin-ichi Motegi, the track is included on the mini-album “Sunny Side of the Street,” released in August 2011.

It served as the campaign song commemorating the 25th anniversary of Tokyo City Keiba’s “Twinkle Race,” and was also selected as the paddock-to-track entrance theme for graded races at Oi Racecourse.

Its message—keep running through anxious nights, guided by the stars—overlaps with the image of thoroughbreds challenging the world of competition.

It’s sure to gently nudge anyone about to take on a new challenge and fill them with a pleasant sense of exhilaration!

Wings Of Phoenix

This commercial featuring the comedian Hollywood Zakoshisho introduces a rice cracker called “Baka-Uke.” In a monochrome scene where Hollywood Zakoshisho performs his act, a calm narration by Hitoshi Kubota—also known from “Jounetsu Tairiku”—comes in.

The contrast is sure to make you chuckle.

The powerful and glamorous song playing in the background is “Wings Of Phoenix” by Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra.

Happy Ending Song feat. Muro TsuyoshiToukyou Sukapara Daisu Ookesutora75rank/position

Medetashi Song / Guest: Muro Tsuyoshi [from Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra × Billboard Classics at Kawaguchiko Stellar Theater] / TOKYO SKA PARADISE ORCHESTRA

A lively ska beat intertwines with lyrics that weave in honest human feelings and questions, all centered on the classic fairy-tale ending of “happily ever after,” creating a track brimming with humor and warmth.

Actor Tsuyoshi Muro’s distinctive storytelling style blends beautifully with Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra’s performance.

Released as a standalone single in May 2021 and later included on the mini-album S.O.S.

[Share One Sorrow], the song also served as the image track for “muroshiki.

Gakugeikai.” It’s a piece with a curious charm that warms the heart just by listening—perfect for those moments when everyday life leaves you a little tired.

Mickey Mouse MarchToukyou Sukapara Daisu Ookesutora76rank/position

Mickey Mouse & Donald Duck Orchestra

I think this is one of the most famous Disney songs, even among those that little children have heard.

I believe it’s the Disney theme song.

At weddings, there are times when congratulatory letters from children are read aloud.

I felt that playing this song then would create a cute and heartwarming atmosphere.

One-Day Flower feat. imase & Narashino High School Wind EnsembleToukyou Sukapara Daisu Ookesutora77rank/position

One-Day Flower feat. imase & Narashino High School Wind Orchestra / TOKYO SKA PARADISE ORCHESTRA

A number themed around flowers that bloom and fall within a day—like morning glories and hibiscuses—symbolizing the freshness of morning and a new beginning.

Released in July 2024, it was chosen as the theme song for Nippon TV’s morning information program “ZIP!”.

Built on Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra’s sprightly ska sound, it beautifully harmonizes with up-and-coming singer imase’s gentle vocals and the youthful performance of the Narashino High School Wind Orchestra.

Positioned as the first installment of a trilogy commemorating the 35th anniversary of their debut, the track is also included on the album “NO BORDER HITS 2025→2001 ~Best of Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra~.” It’s a perfect pick for charging up your morning energy or getting a boost before starting a new chapter in life.
