Sambomaster Love Song Live

“Love Song” is a track about feelings for someone you can no longer meet.

It makes me think that Sambomaster is truly a band with a passionate heart.

Every song strikes a chord.

They’re not just a band that thrashes around; at their core there’s sincerity, passion—things like that.

That’s what I felt while listening to the melody of this love song.

Rock ‘n’ roll is not deadSambomasutā

Sambomaster – Rock ’n’ Roll Is Not Dead

It’s a song that’s popular even among fans because of its great lyrics.

While it sings that rock ’n’ roll isn’t dead, it might actually be using “rock ’n’ roll” as a metaphor for one’s own life—my life, and yours.

With its straightforward rock sound and these lyrics, it’s one of those songs you’ll want to hear live.

It was used as the theme song for Nissan’s Serena commercial.

The track later became a huge hit through a collaboration with high school cheerleaders.

The song title itself is a fiery message—plain, no tricks, just rock ’n’ roll.

The driving refrain—If you’re going to give up, you can do it; it’s not a lie—pounds away and resonates across generations.

Everyone has their own definition of rock or rock ’n’ roll, but this is one song that really makes you think, “Wow, rock is incredible.” While many lyrics in the genre are straightforward, these are unusually open to interpretation.

Even as they weave themes of love and desire, the lyrics speak to you, saying that pure feelings are ultimately the strongest.

It’s the theme song for the TBS Friday drama “Cheer☆Dan.” Its bright sound and lyrics—like a gentle pat on a rounded back—give you courage and motivation.

Sambomaster doesn’t dress up their words, so listeners can take them in honestly.

Don’t be ashamed of who you are—hold your head high and move forward! It’s a song that makes you feel that way.

A massive hit that was used as the ending theme for the TV drama Densha Otoko, catapulting Sambomaster’s name into the spotlight.

Naturally, it’s also a guaranteed crowd-pleaser at their live shows.

The song title is almost embarrassingly bold, but that actually makes it cool.

If anyone suits the words “love and peace” after John Lennon, it’s Sambomaster.

This is a song that makes you think exactly that.

[LIVE] Protecting You, Loving You – Sambomaster

“I Will Protect You, I Will Love You” is Sambomaster’s 12th single, released in June 2009, and it served as the theme song for the anime BLEACH.

With the feel of a straightforward love song, it’s a catchy track that makes you want to sing along with the audience.

It’s the kind of song that makes you want to belt it out at karaoke.
