Famous and popular songs by Ulfuls

Are you happy?Urufuruzu

Shiawase Desuka

This is an uplifting song by Ulfuls, one of Japan’s leading punk rock bands.

It’s a track I recommend for times when you want to take a fresh look at yourself or calm down for a moment, so it’s perfect when you’re tired from work or studying.

There’s always tomorrowUrufuruzu

Ulfuls Ashita ga Aru sa Vietsub There’s Always Tomorrow!!

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.

One dayUrufuruzu

[Ulfuls] One Day, with Lyrics

This is the B-side track from the single “Asobou,” released in 1998.

It says that even if there’s a gaping hole in your heart and the light within has completely gone out, things will be okay once you find someone new to love—thinking that would be easy, but in reality, you still can’t forget her… It’s a song that vividly portrays this inner conflict.

Not-So-Much (Kouta)Urufuruzu

Anmari Kouta

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.

Ulfuls – Kawaii Hito (Cute Person)

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!

New Love SongUrufuruzu

Ulfuls A New Love Song Merry, Merry Christmas

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.
