Spitz / From the Bottom of My Heart

When I first listened to it, a powerful message of “Don’t give up” came rushing at me.

No matter how harsh reality may be, nothing will ever be solved if you let yourself be discouraged.

That’s exactly why we must keep moving forward, steadily, without losing heart, even if it’s slow.

When you feel like you’re about to falter, let’s move forward together with this song.

Run Through the Nightsupittsu

Spitz “Riding Through the Night” Guitar Solo Performance (Singing and Playing)

A hidden gem by the popular band Spitz, “Yoru wo Kakeru” is highly regarded.

The live version is especially incredibly cool, so I definitely recommend giving that a listen.

It’s great not only at night but also to try singing at karaoke.

Hibiscussupittsu

Hibiskus

When it comes to songs with a memorable piano intro, many people might think of this track.

Created by the four-piece rock band Spitz, formed in 1987, it is included on their album “Samenai,” released in July 2016.

Characterized by a fresh, melodious rock sound, it was also used in a commercial for Subaru’s SUV, the Forester.

The lyrics include phrases like “mistake” and “betrayal,” conveying themes of regret and sorrow.

With a title that evokes tropical flowers and interpretations that can suggest war or kamikaze units, it’s a song open to diverse readings.

Highly recommended for those seeking Japanese music with an impressive piano tone!

Sky Blue Townsupittsu

Spitz / Light Blue Town

A beautiful song that contrasts Masamune Kusano’s clear, transparent vocals with distorted, gritty guitars.

Although the MV’s color palette is dark and the track isn’t flashy, the guitar—centered on distinctive arpeggios—creates a unique atmosphere that’s really intriguing.

The cutting guitar in the chorus is highly rhythmic and plays a big role in further highlighting the song’s appeal.

Both the melody and the lyrics make me feel as if I’m watching a foreign film.

I’m drawn into Spitz’s distinctive world.

Although the lyrics seem headed toward a sad ending, I sense a certain fleeting beauty in them.

It matches Kusano’s gentle singing voice.

Gerberasupittsu

Gerbera – Spitz

This ballad was recorded as the B-side to the single “Sawatte, Kawatte” during the period in 2001 when they brought producer Seiji Kameda on board and set things in motion.

With Kusanō’s airy vocals blending into a spacious, atmospheric sound, it’s the kind of ballad that soothes you when you’re zoning out, lost in thought, or feeling sentimental—don’t you think?

Moonlightsupittsu

Spitz / Moonlight #Su

It’s a song that gives me a push, like a mother gently encouraging you when times are tough.

The longer I’m alone, the more easily I feel the pain.

In those moments, try remembering this song.

Those painful feelings are sure to fade away.
