The powerful high notes in the chorus are so cool, it’s a fiery track that makes you want to thrust your fist into the air! The chorus is high and fast-paced, so when you sing it at karaoke you’ll be scrambling to keep up with the lyrics (lol).

THE OVERUVERworld
It was used as the theme song for the drama “Kuro no Onna Kyōshi” (Black Teacher).
The track uses no programming—everything was recorded with live instruments—so you can hear UVER’s original band sound.
The simple, weighty sound and the powerful vocals blend beautifully, allowing the lyrics’ message to come through directly.
Hi! Problematic workUVERworld
TAKUYA∞, the vocalist who mainly writes and composes UVERworld’s songs, has a songwriting motto: “Create lame songs that you couldn’t let anyone hear.” I think this song’s lyrics also reflect his true, unfiltered self.
The part where he pushes back against the praise others heap on him—saying there’s no way they really think that—really resonates with me.

It was selected as the opening theme for the MBS/TBS network anime Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga.
This song is a masterpiece that combines an intense, dynamic rock sound with a heartrending melody, and it has a charm that makes you want to listen to it over and over again.
MEMORIES of the EndUVERworld
A rock ballad that boldly sings of the will to overcome the past and of love, built around the contrasting themes of “ending” and “memory.” Released in June 2024 as their 43rd single, it drew attention as the theme song for the drama ACMA:GAME.
With its grand, striking sound, this track is perfect for moments when your feelings for someone special are growing.
It’s a work that stays close to you when you’re feeling down.
Ephemeral yet eternal sorrowUVERworld
Released on November 19, 2008, it was selected as the first opening theme for the MBS/TBS anime Mobile Suit Gundam 00 (Second Season).
