LIP CREAMTRICERATOPS
It may not be a single, but it’s a hidden gem that’s hugely popular among fans! This track is included on the landmark second album that first put TRICERATOPS on many people’s radar, THE GREAT SKELETON’S MUSIC GUIDE BOOK, released in December 1998.
The lyrics are quintessential Sho Wada—capturing small moments of everyday life while deftly portraying a sweet yet slightly bittersweet love story.
At the same time, their robust, rock-solid sound—heavily influenced by Western music—sets it apart from a run-of-the-mill sweet love song.
And the guitar solo, though short, leaves a strong impression—surprisingly mature and tasteful for a band in their early twenties!
Remember meTUBE
TUBE is strongly associated with summer, but they also have timeless songs that really hit home in autumn—one of them is “Remember Me.” It was their eighth single, released in 1988, and it’s also the first single for which vocalist Nobuteru Maeda wrote the lyrics.
The song was used in a commercial for Ginza Jewelry Maki’s Camellia Diamond.
It’s a love ballad that captures the painful feeling of realizing someone’s importance only after a breakup, making it a perfect fit for the autumn season.
Be sure to give it a try at karaoke!
