A human anthem that says there’s nothing behind you—face forward and go.

A song that gives courage across generations, genders, even races; this is what Sambomaster is all about! I definitely want to hear this big song live.

Sambomaster – I Want to Make a Miracle with You - web edit ver.-

Many people may have heard it as the song from the ILOHAS drinking water commercial.

The word “miracle” can sound a bit like something out of a fairytale, but when Sambomaster sings it, you can’t help but feel a little thrill, like “Maybe a miracle could happen.” The lyrics, which say there’s a possibility for miracles in anything, are also encouraging.
