Obachaan “Obachaan’s Theme” [1st MV] OBACHAAAN “The Theme of OBACHAAAN” #Osaka #idol #mv #osaka #idol #mv

“Obachaaan’s Theme” by Obachaaan, the unconventional idol group formed in Osaka.

Whether it’s the music video or the lyrics, everything packs a powerful, intense punch.

They’ve been featured on TV multiple times.

It’s an energetic song that’s set to fuel the next big boom in western Japan.

TV anime “How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift?” OP theme Muscle Video

It’s the opening theme of the anime “How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift?”.

Just by listening to the song, you can tell it has a clear concept centered on strength training.

It mainly features the names of exercises along with the mindset and precautions to keep in mind while training, giving it the feel of a cheer song for people who work out.

Another major feature is the call-and-response sections based on bodybuilding competition chants, which seem to boost your motivation to train.

YATTA!Leaf Squad

yatta

It’s a group that originated from the variety show Warau Inu.

It was formed by Uchimura and Nanbara (of Ucchan Nanchan), Bibiru Ōki, and Neptune.

Their look—basically naked except for wearing only leaf-covered underwear—was striking and unforgettable.

The song is very happy and positive.

What makes it appealing is that the lyrics are easy to understand and sink in, and above all, the dance really hits a lot of comedic sweet spots.

From Hunting to Rice Cultivation / Rekishi (with Lyrics)

Rekishi is famous for releasing many songs that use history as their theme.

In fact, it originally started as a unit called “Rekishi.” From there, it became a solo project and now it’s just Rekishi.

His classic track ‘From Hunting to Rice Cultivation’ is a song themed around the Jomon and Yayoi periods.

While it has a comedic style, it doesn’t lean completely into humor.

The lyrics are actually quite moving, so it’s a great recommendation for karaoke with someone you’re interested in!

Gero 'Udon' PV

Among Gero’s songs, this one is especially bright and guaranteed to put a smile on everyone’s face.

It expresses a pure, overflowing love for udon through powerful shouts and playful onomatopoeia that evoke the noodles’ texture! Released in July 2013, when Gero made his major-label debut, it was included on his landmark first album, “one.” It’s perfect for times when you want to go all out at karaoke or share a big laugh with everyone!

Midnight is purityRingo Sheena

Ringo Sheena – Purity at Midnight

Most of Ringo Sheena’s arrangements were done by Seiji Kameda, but this track was handled by Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra.

The song is really cool, and the music video available on JOYSOUND is animated, so it’s fun to watch as well.

By the way, the character that appears looks like Ringo Sheena, but it’s actually a different character.

The Regent's DownfallMasashi Sada

Kampaku Shikkaku – Masashi Sada

Masashi Sada, a singer-songwriter affectionately known as “Massan,” is recognized as one of Japan’s leading folk artists.

When it comes to his signature songs, many people probably think of Kanpaku Sengen (The Shogun’s Vow).

The song I’m introducing today, Kanpaku Shikkaku (The Shogun’s Fall), is the reverse version of Kanpaku Sengen, humorously portraying the feelings of a henpecked husband.

It’s a recommended track for office workers who aren’t exactly thrilled about going home.

By the way, the lyrics toward the end are moving—don’t miss them!
