Hit and popular songs by SCANDAL

Let me introduce songs by SCANDAL, a nonstop four-piece girls’ rock band.

SCANDAL was formed when members who originally attended a vocal and dance school were invited by an instructor to try playing instruments.

While they enjoy idol-like popularity, they also have many captivating songs, and I imagine many people have covered them as copy bands at school festivals.

The gear they use is mainly from Fender, and Squier, a Fender subsidiary, offers cute yet cool signature models that perfectly match their image.

If you’re a female guitarist or bassist who admires them, be sure to check them out.

Known as a four-member girls’ band, SCANDAL has carved out a unique place in the pop-rock world since forming in 2006.

Since their major-label debut in 2008, they have produced a string of hits, with many of their songs chosen as themes for anime and TV dramas, resonating with a wide audience.

Their appeal lies in powerful vocals, strong musicianship, and the fusion of Japanese lyrics with catchy melodies.

In 2022, they celebrated their 15th anniversary with a successful commemorative live show, continuing to evolve and captivate many fans.

SCANDAL’s music is highly recommended for those seeking an energetic rock sound.

Starting with the boyfriend’s reminiscence from when they had just begun dating, it’s a cute song that conjures up an image of a woman shyly smiling as she says, “The days I’ve spent with you are treasures.” Listening to this track, you can really feel how much she loves him! Her straightforward affection for him comes through clearly.

With its upbeat, bright melody, it would be perfect for an anniversary video.

While looking back on the precious time you’ve spent together so far, let’s make another wonderful, just-the-two-of-us memory on your anniversary.

“Koibito ga Santa Claus” was originally a song by Yumi Matsutoya, but the version I’m introducing is SCANDAL’s cover.

When professionals do rock covers like this, it’s great for beginners—like students who’ve just started playing instruments.

This track also has sheet music available, so watch the YouTube videos, study the score, practice a ton, and nail the performance!

SCANDAL is a four-member girls’ rock band formed in Osaka.

These days, even in girls’ rock, their skill and technique are impeccable.

When it comes to rock, the gap between men and women has been disappearing.

For this band, being from Osaka gives special meaning to moving to Tokyo and achieving success there.

This song was selected as the ending theme for the car racing–themed TV anime HIGHSPEED Étoile and is included on the album LUMINOUS, released on March 20, 2024.

It’s a work that matches the thrilling world of racing, with the protagonist who keeps challenging themselves despite uncertainty mirroring SCANDAL themselves.

Teaching the importance of believing in your own path and pushing forward, this song is a recommended anthem for everyone taking on something new.
