WASURE RANNEE YO “Shittera” Lyric Video

The band Forgot-My-Name-You, led by Takahiro Shibata.

Since there are currently no other members besides Takahiro Shibata, it’s effectively operating as a solo project.

Their punk-centered sound remains popular today and continues to have strong support from men in their twenties.

This track, “Shittera,” is the band’s new song.

Its appeal lies in the rawness of the vocals and lyrics.

It’s the kind of song that captivates through expression rather than technique, and it doesn’t include any particularly difficult parts.

The more earnestly you sing it with emotion, the better it sounds, so please use it as a reference.
