Sakanaction’s classic and popular songs

MSakanakushon

Transcribing by ear – Sakanaction “M” (Instrumental 1-chorus ver.)

I thought the lyrics were sad.

Listening to this song made me remember how I once cried a lot because I didn’t want to be apart from someone important to me, and it brought back the feelings I had at that time.

It helped me recall the feelings I had for someone dear who is far away, feelings I had almost forgotten.

I think it also makes me feel positive, like I can do my best again tomorrow.

And please watch the music video for this song, too.

Don’t you think it’s a very lovely and tasteful piece?

Sakanaction – Monochrome Tokyo (copy3)

This is a dance track themed around rain.

It evokes a slightly mysterious mood while expressing the feeling of being down because of the rain.

Spoon and Sweat / Sakanaction (acoustic cover)

As someone who loves ballads, this song has really caught my attention.

Sakanaction’s music suits the night so well that I find myself wanting to listen to it whenever I feel a little lonely after dark.

I’d often put this song on a whim, in particular.

I think you can appreciate its beauty even more if you listen while reading the lyrics.

SeptemberSakanakushon

September – Sapporo version –

This is a song by Sakanaction that fuses a melancholic band sound with elements of electronica.

Centered on themes of life’s meaning and life and death, it voices complex emotions and a quiet acceptance.

It was included on the album “834.194,” released in June 2019.

There are two versions, the Tokyo version and the Sapporo version, expressing a contrast between the city and the provinces.

Emotions such as resignation and acceptance are depicted, conveying an attitude of embracing life’s doubts and compromises.

It’s a track you’ll want to listen to alone on a long autumn night.

A contemplative work packed with reflection that prompts thoughts about a deep understanding and acceptance of life.
