The season the sun gave usaoi sankakujougi
The debut single released by Aoi Sankaku Jōgi in February 1972 became a massive hit, selling over 800,000 copies, and it also won the New Artist Award at the Japan Record Awards.
The lyrics, which depict the feelings of youth and the radiance of adolescence, delicately express sentiments toward what has been lost and the heart that keeps waiting.
Yet the words “From today, you’re one of us too” evoke a sense of hope.
The song also drew attention as the theme for the drama “Tobidase! Seishun” (Leap Out! Youth).
When you want to face forward and step ahead with your friends, listening to this song will surely give you a gentle push.
It will bring back the refreshing memories of your youthful days.
This is my way of life.PUFFY
The title of this song is a parody of “Kore ga Otoko no Ikiru Michi,” sung by Hachiji Hana and the Crazy Cats, and it was also used in a Shiseido commercial.
If you remove the hiragana, it cleverly becomes “私生道” (shiseidō), a witty touch.
It’s a pep song for life, but the straightforward, assertive lyrics—paired with PUFFY’s crisp vocal delivery—give it a Heisei-era twist.

It’s a classic in old-school party songs.
Naturally, this 1987 track was used in a Suntory Beer commercial.
The “You’re number one, I’m number two” part was often turned into parody lyrics.
