Sakanaction’s classic and popular songs

AoiSakanakushon

Blue Sakanaction

It was a song that had once been used as a soccer theme.

Listening to it made me feel encouraged.

When you’re feeling down, when you stumble and feel like your spirit might break, or when you’re overwhelmed with anxiety—any time you slip into those slightly negative emotions—give it a listen.

Sakanaction – Sample (Music Video) - Best Album “Fish Encyclopedia” (3/28 release) -

This work features a distinctive sound and striking synthesizers.

It’s the lead track from the night-themed album “NIGHT FISHING,” released in March 2018.

The song captivates with a structure that begins with a serious mood and shifts into a pop development from the chorus into the latter half.

There’s a free, after-school vibe—like in high school—suggested by the anecdote that the members of Sakanaction gathered at Ichiro Yamaguchi’s home to create it.

It’s a track you’ll want to listen to during a night drive or when spending time alone, and it could be a great gateway to the band’s musical style and world.
