FriendsWhy Don't We

“Friends” by the American boy group Why Don’t We, who made their first visit to Japan at Summer Sonic in 2018.

It’s included on their first album released in 2018.

As the title suggests, it’s a song about friends (lol).

The percussion sounds are soothing, giving the track a very moody feel.

It’s a friendship song that captures the vibe of youth—casual conversations with friends and enjoying the weekend together.

It’s a song about friendship that can also sound like a sweet love song that tightens your chest when you listen to it.

I don’t know the lyrics, so this is my own interpretation, but it seems like a song about the balance between romantic love and friendship between a man and a woman.

I’m sure many people have felt this way.

Groove Armada may be niche and not very well known, but musically they make fantastic dance music.

It could be nice to reaffirm a friendship with a track like this.

Friend hospitalNada Surf

True to indie guitar rock, it’s a friendship song with a touch of heartfelt emotion.

Medium-tempo tracks are this band’s forte, so you can listen to this one with confidence.

Even pop lovers who aren’t rock fans are sure to enjoy it.
