It’s a slightly bittersweet love song that captures the awkwardness of being unable to be your true self in front of someone you love and trying to mold yourself to their ideal.
The youthful spirit and raw emotion really stand out.
Give this pop-rock number a listen when you’re feeling lost in love—it’s sure to stay by your side.
seesaw gameNEW!Mr.Children
A bright, breezy pop number that likens the push-and-pull of romance and the sway of emotions to playground equipment.
The precariousness and thrill of love—rising and falling with every little reaction from the other person—are sung over a sprightly beat.
Released in August 1995, the song became a major hit despite having no tie-in and was also included on the album “BOLERO.” It’s also well known that the sales and royalties at the time were donated as relief funds for the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake.
With its bouncy rhythm, it’s guaranteed to get the crowd going at karaoke.
For the chorus, we recommend everyone joining in with call-and-response for a big sing-along!

It portrays an awkward love that, unable to be honest, reflexively creates distance—something that anyone who has felt the frustrations of romance may find themselves relating to.
It’s a number we especially hope those who want to convey their true feelings to someone they like but can’t quite find the courage will listen to.
