What kind of tree is this?Hide Yuki

Hitachi Tree: What Kind of Tree Is This? with Lyrics

It’s a familiar song that used to be on commercials all the time.

Listening to it again after a while makes me chuckle.

The lyrics are surprisingly deep, and you might even get hooked.

If you sing it at karaoke, a huge laugh is guaranteed.

It might take a little courage, though…

cheeseburgerFujifaburikku

Fujifabric / Cheeseburger cheese burger чизбургер

This is a song from the era when Shimura was on vocals.

If you listen to the lyrics, they sing the famous McDonald’s catchphrase straight up.

It’s a fun track packed with a pro’s playful spirit: sleeping in on a day off, craving a cheeseburger, but still feeling sleepy.

aonori (green laver seaweed)Buriifu & Torankusu

Brief & Trunks - Aonori

This is a quintessential gag song that can make people laugh at karaoke with its lyrics.

Even the name Brief & Trunks is already funny.

The lyrics say that no matter how serious you try to be, if you’ve got aonori (seaweed) stuck on your teeth, it’s uncool, right? Most of their other songs are pretty much joke songs, too.

Have a good day, Kata.Yabai T-shatsu Yasan

Yabai T-Shirts Yasan – “Shoulder Have a Good Day” Music Video

What you hear along with the cool melody line are lyrics filled with extreme prejudice toward people with broad shoulders.

People with broad shoulders are great, right? They seem kind, right? They seem big-hearted—I’m just jealous, honestly.

The drum-and-whistling break in the interlude also brings a sly chuckle.

From hunting to rice cultivationrekishi

From Hunting to Rice Cultivation: Rekishi vs. Osharekishi

As the artist’s name suggests, many of their songs are about history.

Among them, this track has particularly silly lyrics.

It opens with an intro that asks which is better: Jomon pottery or Yayoi pottery.

If people in the Jomon and Yayoi periods had songs, they might have made something like this.

I’m going to Tokyo.Yoshi Ikuzo

I'm going to Tokyo.

This is the breakout song of the nationally beloved enka singer, Yoshikazu “Yoshi” Ikuzō.

It’s said to be a self-deprecating tune that humorously exaggerates the rural life of his hometown, Kanagi in Kitatsugaru District, Aomori Prefecture, and it became hugely popular.

The lyrics apparently captured a lot of relatable moments from that era, and it seems many of them were based on real stories!

3-minute ramen cookingOtsuka Ai

Otsuka ai 라면 3분요리

This track is perfect for making instant cup noodles.

The song is three minutes long—the same amount of time it takes for cup noodles to be ready.

When you have cup noodles with friends or your girlfriend, I hope you pour in the hot water and enjoy these three minutes by listening to this song.
