Famous and popular songs by Ulfuls

Here’s an introduction to some of the most popular songs by Ulfuls, a hot and soulful rock band.

Tracks like “Guts da ze!,” “Eenenn,” and “Waraereba” leave a strong impression with their gutsy, positive energy.

Music that moves you is incredibly captivating.

By the way, the band’s name doesn’t have a particular meaning; it comes from their favorite record titled “Soulful.” Due to a line break, it was read as “Ulful,” which became their name.

Since Ulfuls is also a live band, their appeal is brought out even more when they perform in front of an audience.

The more the crowd gets excited, the more the songs shine, so they’re a band you should see live at least once.

And I think this song, in particular, is even better in its live version.

Passion A Go-GoUrufuruzu

Ulfuls have both serious songs and ones that are playfully goofy.

This song is the latter, with a comedic touch evident even from its music video.

Still, the melody and vocals are excellent, so I recommend giving it a listen.

This is a smash hit by Ulfuls that was tied in with the hugely popular Georgia coffee commercial.

Japan was in an economic slump at the time, so many people must have found comfort in this song.

It’s a cover of the legendary classic written by the late Yukio Aoshima.

Not-So-Much (Kouta)Urufuruzu

A funky, laid-back number that’s quintessentially Ulfuls.

The interplay between the guitar and harmonica is a joy.

That loose, languid vocal style is irresistible, too! Surprisingly, it’s an ultra-short track under two minutes.

The lyrics are so short you’ll memorize them in no time! It once made it onto the iTunes USA blues chart and held the No.

1 spot for a long time.

It has the easygoing vibe of an old-school rock tune, and it would feel right at home playing in a café or similar spot.

Speaking of May, there’s Mother’s Day, isn’t there? The 1997 single “Kawaii Hito” is a song themed around mothers, with the Wulfuls’ signature style in full swing! From the very first beat of the intro, it lifts your spirits and puts you in a great mood—such a cute track.

It happily sings a son’s gratitude to his mother, and the blend of the Wulfuls’ heartwarming, human touch with their rock ’n’ roll band sound is a perfect match.

That cozy, feel-good vibe also seems perfect for the moment you give a gift!

Dad’s SongUrufuruzu

Here is a heartwarming song that celebrates the bond between parent and child.

It’s a track by Ulfuls, written and composed by Tortoise Matsumoto, included on their 2002 album “Ulfuls.” The lyrics depict small, everyday scenes—family trips, birthdays, and a father singing karaoke—and convey deep respect and affection for Dad.

It’s a perfect song for Father’s Day.

Listen to it together as a family, and it’s sure to warm your hearts.

Some of you may be looking for songs that are perfect for a karaoke date.

In that case, I recommend “Atarashii Ai no Uta ~Merry Merry Christmas~.” It’s a track included on Ulfuls’ single “Yume.” Set to a mid-tempo ballad sound, the song delivers a straightforward confession of love from a male perspective.

The earnest lyrics are part of its charm.

With its bright, catchy melody, it’s easy to sing without feeling shy—even to someone special.
