Wednesday Campanella's masterpieces and popular songs

Starting their activities in 2012, Wednesday Campanella has been releasing sophisticated tracks with a unique atmosphere.

If you’ve known Wednesday Campanella since back then, you might have thought of it as KOM_I’s solo project, since she handled vocals.

In fact, though, it was a music unit with Hidefumi Kenmochi producing the songs and Dir.F handling direction.

In 2021, KOM_I left the group, and Utaha joined as the second vocalist, continuing their activities.

In this article, we’ll introduce their popular songs all at once—from their debut to the present!

Their catalog is full of addictive tracks, from the lyrics to the melodies, so take this opportunity to give them a thorough listen.

Wednesday Campanella’s classic and popular songs (51–60)

CharlotteSuiyōbi no Campanella

Wednesday Campanella is a musical unit that combines quality techno and pop music with high taste, earning widespread popularity.

They have many hit songs, but the one we especially recommend for university students is Charlotte.

Despite its bright rhythm, this track surprisingly has a narrow vocal range and features a catchy, easy-to-sing vocal line.

You don’t have to worry much about going off pitch, and even if you can’t hit high notes, you can still sing it—so it’s a piece we particularly encourage people who aren’t confident in their singing to try.

Genghis KhanSuiyōbi no Campanella

You might think it’s a song about Genghis Khan, the first emperor of the Mongol Empire, but it’s actually a track themed around jingisukan, the lamb dish said to be named after Genghis Khan.

Being included on the album “SUPERMAN,” where all the track titles use the names of great historical figures, makes it clear they’ve intentionally chosen a confusing title.

With distinctive timbres and rhythms that incorporate folk music and evoke Mongolia through various languages, the song stands out for portraying scenes from Japanese eateries that serve jingisukan.

Though packed with jokes, the lyrics vividly depict the lamb sizzling to perfection, thoroughly whetting the listener’s appetite.

Wednesday Campanella, which drew attention when it was announced in 2021 that KOM_I, who had served as the group’s iconic vocalist, would be leaving.

The song “Ukigumo” is included on their first mini-album, “Crawl and Pull-Up,” released in 2013.

It’s a track brimming with Wednesday Campanella’s distinctive world—a mysterious, floating sensation that evokes cherry blossoms and Japan’s beautiful scenery, with the traditional motif of kachō-fūgetsu woven into the lyrics.

Listening to it while gazing at cherry blossoms at night may let you savor that beautiful scenery even more.

When it comes to symbols of summer, fireworks come to mind: their fleeting beauty and the transience with which they vanish.

Wednesday Campanella’s song Takehisa Yumeji evokes exactly that summer fireworks atmosphere.

Its sprightly rhythm and beautiful melody reflect the wistful allure of fireworks.

Like fireworks—beautiful yet somehow pensive and bittersweet—it’s a track that lingers, and many will be reminded of that summer, those summer fireworks.

It’s a number packed with words that conjure the feeling of summer.

Little Red Riding HoodSuiyōbi no Campanella

Formed in 2012, Wednesday Campanella has a curious name that supposedly comes from the fact that they often had meetings on Wednesdays—pretty unique, isn’t it? Most of their songs are composed by Hidefumi Kenmochi, and the vocalist changed from the original KOM_I to Utaha in 2021.

Their 2022 release Edison then blew up on TikTok—many of you have probably heard it.

Utaha’s singing style leans more pop, with a stronger emphasis on rhythm.

It’s fun to compare the two.

Electro music is also a go-to when you want to liven up the mood at karaoke, right? In that case, how about singing “Nabe Bugyō”? It’s the ending theme of the anime Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun, performed by Wednesday Campanella.

The lyrics are intriguingly about the process of making a “yaminabe,” or mystery hot pot.

It’s hard to picture what that really looks like, isn’t it? Plus, with turntable scratching in the mix, the sound builds a uniquely surreal atmosphere.

I think it would be a hit to sing at a hot pot party, too.

RamboSuiyōbi no Campanella

A track from Wednesday Campanella’s third mini-album, “Cinema Jack.” As the title suggests, it’s a song themed after the film “Rambo,” but it doesn’t follow the movie’s plot; instead, it depicts Rambo working tirelessly as a company employee.

In other words, it’s a work-song.

Recommended for those exhausted by the daily grind.
