Unicorn’s hit and popular songs
Let me introduce some songs by Unicorn, the popular rock band that formed in 1986, disbanded in 1993, and reunited in 2009 to resume activities.
They’re well known for having Tamio Okuda, who also has a solo career, on guitar and vocals.
Their catalog ranges from upbeat tracks like “Dai Meiwaku” to more laid-back songs such as “Subarashii Hibi.”
In their early days, their good looks earned them idol-like popularity, and it’s said they were the band most frequently featured in photo spreads in music magazines.
Their songs have a classic rock sound, making them essential listening for fans of rock bands.

Wonderful Daysyunikōn
This song is straight-up British rock.
It evokes the green harmonies of the ’60s and ’70s, and the fact that the melody is great right from the start is wonderful.
It’s also a nostalgic track that my friends and classmates used to listen to a lot when I was young.
Digital Soupyunikōn
It’s guitar rock that’s quintessentially them.
Melodic progressions like this are their forte.
The way the song builds from the start and then ramps up even further in the latter half showcases how well it’s structured.
Many Japanese rock bands have likely been influenced by them.
The Odd Coupleyunikōn
I remember that Unicorn gained popularity during the band boom of the 1980s.
Back then, it was bands like Lindberg and The Blue Hearts.
And when you think about how few bands and artists from that era have survived, you can see how talented this band is.

If you had to pick one song that represents Unicorn, I think many people would choose this one.
While it shows the influence of British rock, they’ve digested it in their own unique way.
Their ability to portray the working salaryman with humor and wit is truly impressive.

For an early work, it’s a rare, grand, and universal song.
It still resonates today, and that warm, expansive melody is their greatest strength.
I think it’s a masterpiece that crosses barriers of race, generation, and gender, and resonates with many people.
Feel So Moonyunikōn
Unicorn is a rock band that represents Japan and can be described as a high-quality indie guitar band.
There are very few bands in Japan that continue to embody this indie spirit—they’re quite rare.
Here’s a great band and their latest track.
A star-like manyunikōn
This is from a concert at Saitama Super Arena in 2009.
The song is a famous Japanese rock number with only the lyrics changed.
If I remember correctly, the original is by Takuro Yoshida, but they sped up the tempo and transformed it into a song that’s very much in Unicorn’s style.
