Rebecca’s famous and popular songs

Making up with GodREBECCA

Kamisama To Nakanaori

Even after all these years, I’m amazed that their vocal ability is just as strong as it was back then.

Whether becoming a parent or going solo, the singing has stayed solid and unchanged, and because I remember the song perfectly, it’s still a beloved classic for me.

I want people of all ages to listen to it.

I’m so glad I can still hear it today.

RASPBERRY DREAMRebekka

REBECCA – RASPBERRY DREAM

This song is one of REBECCA’s signature hits from the 1980s.

It’s pop, yet it had a fresh, cool edge that set it apart from the idol-style kayōkyoku of the time.

NOKKO’s vocals—husky yet glossy in the high register—together with the solid band sound, brought a new breeze to the Japanese music scene.

Although they broke up once, they reunited in 2015.

I hope they’ll continue to bring us wonderful songs.

WHITE SUNDAYRebekka

"WHITE SUNDAY" / AKIO DOBASHI feat. Momoko Hayashi

This is a ballad included on Rebecca’s fifth album, TIME, released in 1986.

There are many ways to spend Christmas, but this song depicts a scene that is neither having fun with a lover or family nor spending the night alone in loneliness; instead, it portrays “time quietly flowing for two people in love.” It might be nice to spend Christmas listening to a song like this once in a while.

FRIENDSREBECCA

REBECCA “Friends” Official Music Video

A signature song by REBECCA that sings about youthful memories and the importance of friendship.

NOKKO’s clear, crystalline vocals and the synth-pop sound resonate pleasantly.

Used as both the opening and ending theme for the TV drama “Half-Potato na Oretachi,” which began airing in October 1985, it reached No.

3 on the Oricon charts and became a major hit, selling 300,000 copies.

Many listeners can relate to the lyrics packed with nostalgic memories—like songs you hummed at dusk or the nervousness of your first kiss.

It’s a track you’ll find yourself wanting to play when you feel like reaffirming the bonds with your close friends.

Love is cashREBECCA

REBECCA – Love is Cash

In an era when bands with female vocalists stood out, NOKKO’s overwhelming vocal ability and powerful performances made the band popular with both men and women, and many of their singles were tie-ins.

Although they unfortunately disbanded, they reunited temporarily in recent years, and fans from back in the day must have been thrilled to see her unfading presence on stage.

FriendsRebekka

REBECCA “Friends” (Shibuya Public Hall, Dec 25, 1985)

It’s a song with a cool, band-like flow.

The slightly aspirational lyrics fit well with a character who’s stretching beyond their limits and struggling.

I think many people discovered the band Rebecca through this track.

NOKKO’s voice is wonderful.
