Hit and popular songs by SHISHAMO (Shishamo)

Let me introduce a song by SHISHAMO, a three-piece girls’ band from Kanagawa Prefecture.

Their debut came about when a record label representative happened to overhear the advisor of their high school light music club talking at his regular tonkatsu restaurant, saying, “There’s a great band.”

Apparently, the restaurant was even selling their CDs.

Their appeal lies in the down-to-earth lyrics written by the vocalist, Ms.

Miyazaki, and their performance skills that contrast with their cute visuals.

Now, please enjoy a song by SHISHAMO, a staple of the next generation of girls’ rock bands.

Minna no UtaSHISHAMO

Although there are many painful experiences, it portrays someone trying to keep living in their own way.

The lyrics, in which the singer encourages themselves—saying they know best how hard they’re trying and striving to stand up—make it a song that rewards everyone working hard across the country, I believe.

The music video is also incredibly cute and a must-see.

It’s a song about a girl who admires band guys.

The subject is a girl who stands in the front row at live houses, gazing absentmindedly at the band—someone who seems to come not for the band’s music, but because she likes the band members’ faces.

The song portrays her straightforward feelings for a bandman.

To tell the truth,SHISHAMO

It’s an outrageous song about how I’ve been listening every night to my friend’s complaints after he broke up with his girlfriend—who, in fact, is now my girlfriend.

Even though she chose me, it depicts how I just can’t bring myself to confess the truth and agonize over it.

The song is set as a continuation of “Boku ni Kanojo ga Dekitan da” (“I Got a Girlfriend”), and when you listen to them together, you can’t help but feel sympathy for the friend in this song.

Winter Song / SHISHAMO (Acoustic Solo)
Winter SongSHISHAMO

I’m in unrequited love with a friend—though maybe the feelings are mutual.

But because our relationship is so close and comfortable right now, I’m afraid of ruining it and can’t confess.

That’s what this song is about.

It turned into a really frustrating kind of song.

I bet many people have had an experience like this.

You and the slopesSHISHAMO

It’s a song you could call a new winter standard.

It vividly portrays the shift from the excitement of going out with a friend group that includes your crush to the painful realization that the person they like is also in that group, making the listener feel as though they’ve experienced heartbreak themselves.

Even so, the melody is pop and easy to listen to, and once you hear it, it sticks in your head.
