TUBE songs. A list of Tube’s classic and recommended popular tracks (41–50)
Remember MeTUBE
For TUBE, who are strongly associated with summer, this is a rare hidden ballad released in December 1988 during the winter season.
It became a smash hit, reaching No.
12 on the Oricon chart, and it’s a song that resonates deeply even when listened to in summer.
Christmas roseTUBE
When you think of TUBE, summer songs may be the first thing that comes to mind, but they also have a love ballad about Christmas! Sung with the passionate voice of vocalist Nobutoki Maeda, it tells a story set on Christmas Eve, just as the snow begins to fall.
The lyrics portray a man heading out to confess his feelings to the woman he loves.
Alongside the lyrics that convey a strong, straightforward love, the guitar solo woven into the song seems to express the rising emotions as well, making it a hidden gem of a Christmas ballad that will leave your heart feeling warm by the time the song ends.
First loveTUBE
A song from TUBE—known for their strong summer image—that carries a subtly wistful atmosphere.
Nobutaka Maeda’s gentle vocals and Michiya Haruhata’s memorable melodies vividly evoke the memories of a first love that everyone experiences.
Released in June 2001 and peaking at No.
9 on the Oricon weekly chart, it was also selected as the image song for Nippon TV’s “Gekikukan Pro Yakyu 2001.” For Yomiuri Giants fans, it might be a particularly nostalgic track.
Listening to it at the end of summer is likely to bring back a bittersweet page of youth.
It’s also a heartwarming love song you’ll want to share with someone special.
P.S.TUBE
Against the backdrop of a cityscape bathed in the colors of sunset, a gentle melody that comforts the heart resonates.
In this work by TUBE, they sing a gem of a song about the loneliness and confusion felt amid the bustle of the city—and about hope.
Released in December 2007, it’s also cherished as a Christmas song that brings a warm light to the winter streets.
While delicately expressing the ache of being alone and the desire for human connection, it also conveys the strength of “somehow getting through today.” It’s a song I especially recommend to those worn out by city life or feeling lost in their journey.
StoriesTUBE
TUBE captivates with a variety of classic songs that depict summer.
Their medium-tempo love ballad “Stories,” packed with TUBE’s charm, was released as a single in 1989 and was featured in a Panasonic car audio CD-in1 “VZ700” commercial.
Some of you may have often listened to it while driving with your partner, right? The intro’s sparkling guitar tones are beautiful, and the dramatic, quintessentially TUBE atmosphere is wonderful and truly moving.
It’s a melodious masterpiece that makes your heart race with its tale of a mature romance.
SUMMER CITYTUBE
Released in 1989, this was TUBE’s first completely original single.
Until then, professional writers had been providing their songs, but starting with this track, the members themselves took on the songwriting and composition, marking a new summer in their fifth year—a fresh launch.
It’s a song where you can feel both their career up to that point and their youthful energy.
Scorching LoveTUBE
Set in the scorching Shonan, this TUBE song paints a passionate romance.
Its arrangement, inspired by Group Sounds, and lyrics that mention place names like Enoshima and Kugenuma leave a strong impression.
The tune, which conveys the feelings of a clumsy man, overflows with a dazzling, unmistakably summery vibe.
Released in June 2010, it reached No.
8 on the weekly Oricon chart.
As TUBE’s 51st single, it’s one of the many songs in their long career themed around summer.
It’s a perfect number for anyone who wants to blow away the sweltering heat and feel refreshed.
Packed with the quietly resonant charm of TUBE in their mature period, it’s a track you’ll definitely want to hear.
