Unicorn - “Great Nuisance”

Reunited in 2009, UNICORN has continued to captivate fans with their energetic activities.

Their signature song “Dai Meiwaku” (Great Nuisance) was released as a single in 1989, the first year of the Heisei era.

The song features a businessman who’s just bought his dream home only to be assigned to a solo post away from his family, and it comically portrays his mix of joy and sorrow with an uptempo beat.

It’s a highly popular track among both younger generations who discovered the band after their reunion and longtime fans alike.

Wonderful DaysUNICORN2rank/position

Unicorn - Wonderful Days

Released in April 1993, this UNICORN track poignantly sings about drifting apart from close friends, set to a gentle melody that cushions themes of parting and change.

Born from differences in musical direction among the members, the song is imbued with Tamio Okuda’s unique charm—quiet on the surface yet suffused with bittersweet emotion.

In addition to reaching No.

6 on the Oricon charts, it also touched a wide audience as the theme song for the film “Hinagon” and in a Sony commercial.

It’s a gem I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone sensing shifts in important relationships or seeking calm, reflective insight in everyday life.

A town where it snowsUNICORN3rank/position

UNICORN "A Town Where Snow Falls" OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO

This is a classic song that captures a snowy year-end townscape through a warm lens.

Released by UNICORN in December 1992, it was originally planned as a Christmas song, but was reworked into a year-end song.

Set to a shuffle beat with a melody that hints at mid-period Beatles influences, it strikingly contrasts the bustle and the quiet of late December.

The worldview woven from candid feelings about the hustle and bustle of the city and a nostalgic yearning for the falling snow continues to resonate with many.

Also used as the ending theme for TBS’s “Totsuzen Variety Sokuhō!! COUNT DOWN 100,” this is a track you’ll want to listen to when you seek a bit of calm at the busy close of the year, or on a quiet night when you’re thinking of someone dear.

Feel So MoonUNICORN4rank/position

Unicorn 'Feel So Moon'

UNICORN is a five-piece rock band whose members can all handle both songwriting and vocals, and they continue to captivate fans with their highly flexible musical style.

Their 14th single, “Feel So Moon,” written as the theme song for the TV anime Space Brothers, came to life thanks to an enthusiastic request from the original creator, Chuya Koyama.

The lyrics, which make you feel as if you’ve set foot on the still largely unknown moon, expand the sense of wonder with UNI C O R N’s signature comedic touch.

It’s a pop-rock tune whose exquisitely laid-back vocals and rich, spacious ensemble evoke a feeling of zero gravity.

New Year’s gift (money given to children)UNICORN5rank/position

Tried singing and playing Unicorn’s “Otoshidama” on the ukulele

When it comes to New Year’s, what everyone wonders about is otoshidama (New Year’s gift money).

As kids, we’d feel a flutter of excitement wondering how much we’d get; as adults, we’re on the giving side and feel a different kind of nervous thrill (haha).

Unicorn’s “Otoshidama” is packed with that New Year’s sense of excitement.

The song was included as the B-side to the single “Yuki ga Furu Machi” released in 1992.

Rather than a song about children eagerly waiting for their otoshidama, it’s a track that depicts a leisurely, peaceful New Year.

I’m a LoserUNICORN6rank/position

Unicorn, I’m a loser.

UNICORN debuted in 1987.

Their signature songs include “Dai Meiwaku (Big Trouble)” and “Subarashii Hibi (Wonderful Days).” This song, “I’m A Loser,” is included on an album and is a masterpiece that retains the bittersweet, somewhat nostalgic feel seen in UNICORN’s early days.

Beard and BoobsUNICORN7rank/position

Unicorn - 'Beard and Boobs'

“Hige to Boin,” one of the classic songs by the popular band Unicorn, is a far better track than its goofy title would suggest.

It vividly portrays the comical yet bittersweet plight of a man torn between the ultimate choice: to pursue work or to choose love.
