Mr.Children “People Crossing the Crosswalk” Split the Difference

The so-called “legendary hidden gem” The People Crossing the Crosswalk.

It’s a song that focuses on crosswalks we usually pass by without a second thought, singing about the human stories we witness there.

It’s included as the second track on the single GIFT, released in 2010.

The highest note that appears in this song is G4—quite low by Mr.

Children’s standards.

In terms of range, it’s a very singable song.

The challenging part lies in the rhythm and delivery.

If you’re not used to a spoken, narrative style of singing, you might find it difficult.

The key to handling the verse sections, which are particularly wordy, is to approach them as if you’re speaking rather than “singing.” If you try to belt it, your voice may become too loud, or you might struggle to keep up with the speed of the lyrics.

Sing with the gentle feeling of speaking to someone.

A Ticket Given by Autumn

When it comes to autumn songs by the beloved national rock band Mr.

Children, this heartwarming number surely comes to mind.

It delicately portrays a small, unexpected miracle that slips into everyday life and the tender feelings for someone special, all carried on the crisp air of fall.

The gentle tones of piano and clarinet are soothing, leaving you with the lingering afterglow of finishing a short story.

This track is included on the album “Juuryoku to Kokyuu” (Gravity and Breath), released in October 2018.

At karaoke, you’ll want to sing it softly, pouring your emotions into its beautiful melody.

As the weather turns chilly, it’s sure to gently warm the listener’s heart.

Mr.Children “Scent of Flowers” MUSIC VIDEO

“The Scent of Flowers,” notable for its gentle piano accompaniment.

This song was chosen as the theme for the film “Watashi wa Kai ni Naritai” (I Want to Be a Shellfish), starring Masahiro Nakai, released in November 2008.

The theme of the song is “the preciousness of life, and how a life continues to live on in someone’s heart even after death.” Among Mr.

Children’s songs, this one has an especially relaxed tempo.

A slower tempo allows you to sing each phrase carefully.

Also, if you articulate the lyrics clearly as you sing, your vocal production becomes clearer and it will feel easier to sing.

Give it a try!

Mr.Children – The Language of Flowers [Guitar Cover]

It is included on Mr.

Children’s 11th album, “Shifuku no Oto.” It portrays the regret of a man who was selfish in love.

Among Mr.

Children’s songs, it’s unusual in that it starts with the chorus.

Although it’s a minor track, it’s popular as an autumn song.

Theory of evolutionMr.Children61rank/position

Mr.Children “Theory of Evolution” from Stadium Tour 2015 Incomplete

Evolution, included on the 2015 album “REFLEXTION.” The song was used as the ending theme for the news program “NEWS ZERO,” and vocalist Sakurai commented, “I hope it becomes a lullaby for adults.” It’s a lovely track with a gentle melody carried by a relaxed tempo.

While the pitch is generally on the lower side and easy to sing, there are a few higher notes in the chorus.

However, the lyrics in the high sections make it less likely for the throat to tighten, so it’s a good song for trying slightly higher melodies.

Rain followed by clear skiesMr.Children62rank/position

Rain followed by clear skies

This song, included on the 1994 album “Atomic Heart,” has quite a different vibe from Mr.

Children’s recent tracks, doesn’t it? The funky drum and bass rhythm feels super comfortable.

Contrary to that musical image, the lyrics portray the struggles of a working adult.

When work or romance doesn’t go well, it’s easy to get negative, but listening to this song makes you feel like things will turn around someday! It’s a track I especially want Mr.

Children fans to sing at karaoke.

Parade on a Rainy DayMr.Children63rank/position

Parade on a Rainy Day / Mr.Children [from the latest album 'miss you'] cover by Tanouta

This gentle song features a soothing, medium-tempo melody and the distinctly comfortable band sound that only Mr.

Children can deliver.

Through scenes of a rainy day, it carries a message that warmly reflects on the small joys in everyday life and memories of the past.

Released in October 2023, the piece employs a simple yet memorable arrangement centered on acoustic guitar and piano tones.

It’s a song that lets a positive feeling—keeping your heart clear even in the rain—soak in, making it a perfect recommendation for those who tend to feel down during the rainy season.

It’s also recommended for anyone who wants to cherish memories made with family and friends.
