Skip ONJUKU-OHARA-TAITOTUBE
This is a local song by TUBE, a band synonymous with Japanese summers, filled with love for the seas of Chiba.
It sings of the exhilaration of speeding along the coastline, passing through place names like Onjuku, Ohara, and Taito.
The breezy guitar sound and buoyant rhythm make it feel like you’re on a seaside drive with the sound of waves as your BGM.
The track is included on their debut album “HEART OF SUMMER,” released in July 1985.
Listening to this while cruising along the Boso coast may evoke bittersweet memories of summers past for some.
Teased and tropicalTUBE
A passionate Latin rock number that depicts a fervent romance unfolding on a tropical night.
Centered on a guitar riff, its rock-forward sound blends with Latin rhythms, delivering a refreshing melody and powerful performance that embody the liberating spirit of summer.
Opening TUBE’s self-titled album celebrating their 20th anniversary, the track was released as a DVD single in July 2005 and brightened up morning TV as the theme song for Fuji TV’s information program Mezamashi Doyoubi during July 2005.
With its rhythmic dance beat, it’s a recommended song for anyone looking to enjoy and power through the hot summer.
Season in the sunTUBE
A song that brilliantly captures the feeling of summer and a refreshing first love is gaining attention again on social media.
Known as one of TUBE’s signature tracks, it was released in April 1986 and was also used in a Kirin Beer commercial.
It features an urban vibe that evokes the Shonan coast and a distinctive chord progression.
The lyrics convey the bittersweetness and tenderness of a summer romance, expressing a wish to stop time and make that moment last forever.
It’s a perfect pick for reminiscing about summer memories and youthful days on Instagram Stories.
Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy the summer season.
Smile FlowerTUBE
A characteristically positive TUBE song, “Smile Flower.” It was used as the tie-in song for Ajinomoto’s “Knorr Cup Soup” commercial that aired starting in May 2019.
The up-tempo melody definitely feels quintessentially TUBE.
The lyrics convey a gentleness mingled with passion, and they also make you feel the passage of time for TUBE themselves, which is quietly moving.
When you’re feeling like you’ve been left behind or about to lose heart, listening to it can give you a lot of energy—drawing on TUBE’s own life experience—so I highly recommend it.
