Songs by TUBE. A list of TUBE’s classic hits and recommended popular tracks.

Season in the SunTUBE

Tube Season in the sun

TUBE’s breakout hit, released in 1986.

It’s a classic that could be called the very definition of a Japanese summer, beginning with a refreshing intro featuring beautiful harmonies reminiscent of the Beach Boys.

Composed by Tetsurō Oda—who also worked with ZARD and Nanase Aikawa—the song is crafted into a refined, city-pop-inflected rock tune.

Surfside, at this pointTUBE

TUBE “Imasara Surfside” Music Video

This is a song released in 2015 that evokes TUBE’s grand image of summer.

It also became a familiar tune after being chosen as the ending theme for April on TBS’s hit information program “Hiruobi!”, hosted by Honjamaka’s Megumi.

Good-bye…TUBE

TUBE SA YO NA RA…

It’s a song included as the first track on TUBE’s fifth original album, released in 1987.

It sold over 300,000 copies and became a major hit following “THE SEASON IN THE SUN,” which had been released six months earlier, propelling TUBE into the ranks of popular artists.

Nice! Hawaiian.TUBE

TUBE – Iijyan Hawaiian

Speaking of summer, it’s TUBE.

This song is packed with everything that makes TUBE who they are—endless summer vibes, the ocean, and aloha shirts.

So what kind of wonderful place is Hawaii, a destination they even write songs about? If you listen to this track, which practically says, “You’ve got to visit at least once!”, you might find yourself wanting to head straight to Hawaii.

Remember meTUBE

TUBE Remember Me

It’s a dramatic love ballad by TUBE.

It sings about lovers whose relationship isn’t going well, but the lyrics express a wish to get back together with a former partner, pleading “don’t forget” and “remember me.” Women who have once broken up and later reconciled might be moved to tears.

Ballad of the SeaTUBE

TUBE “Sea Ballad” Guitar & Vocal Cover

When you think of TUBE, they’re a band you just can’t separate from Japan’s summer.

This is a ballad from that quintessential summer band, themed around the sea.

It’s the final track on their self-produced album “My TUBE,” created during a songwriting camp on a southern island, and it vividly conjures up the image of gazing at the ocean at dusk.

The song seeks solace in the vast sea, a calm piece that also hints at the end of summer.

When your heart is worn out by sadness or hardship, perhaps feeling the grandeur of nature—like in this song—is exactly what you need.
