Top 10 classic and popular songs by Rekishi
From hunting to rice cultivationrekishi
A song where history and music blend, themed around the transition from the Jomon period to the Yayoi period.
It depicts changes in ancient Japanese lifestyles, singing about the shift from hunting and gathering to rice cultivation.
An interesting point is how it symbolically portrays the transition of eras through romance.
Included on the album “Rekitsu,” released in March 2011, the track was also chosen as the theme song for the 2020 film Crayon Shin-chan.
At live shows, the sight of the audience waving rice stalks is particularly memorable.
It’s recommended not only for history enthusiasts but also for anyone looking for a song that portrays romance from a unique perspective.
KATOKrekishi
It’s a song that sticks in your head after just one listen! Even though they’re dressed in an extremely over-the-top style, they sing a pretty straightforward song, which shows great taste.
The track itself is really good, so the contrast is wonderful! It’s a parody of Journey’s famous music video.
Hidden Christian languagerekishi
As the title suggests, it’s finished in a tango style—complete with an unexpected pun.
The guest is RHYMESTER.
Surprisingly, tango and rap go well together.
I’m truly impressed by the sheer range of their talents, even being able to create a tango track.
Rekishi’s Greatest and Popular Songs (11–20)
Ōoku Labyrinth feat. Shakacchirekishi
The song’s theme is the Ōoku (the women’s quarters of Edo Castle).
It’s a dance tune with cool, choppy guitar cutting.
The chorus—actually, most of the song—is in falsetto.
Rekishi’s falsetto is really pleasant.
It’s another danceable track crafted with a disco vibe he’s so good at.
It’s tough in karaoke—pretty much impossible to sing, lol.
Princess Shake! feat. Maraemon Saitorekishi
Guest appearance by Kazuyoshi Saito.
Honestly, he’s probably the only one who could get away with giving Kazuyoshi Saito such a goofy name.
As you’d expect with Saito on board, it’s a band sound where the guitar riffs really shine.
It’s a catchy, upbeat track that makes you want to clap along.
Kira Kira Bushi feat. Deyonnarekishi
Probably Rekishi’s most famous song.
And the guest is none other than Sheena Ringo.
Why didn’t she turn down the offer? lol.
It’s a dance tune that makes you want to move without thinking.
Guaranteed to get the crowd going at karaoke.
If someone can harmonize, even better.
Historic Brand-New Dayrekishi
Seiko Ito joined as a guest.
Honestly, I didn’t know he could rap.
The lyrics are honestly cheesy, but somehow they just click—that’s Rekishi magic.
From rap to stylish tracks, he really has an incredible range.
