Sakanaction / Wasurerarenai no -Music Video-

Released in 2019, this song became a hot topic for its deliberate nods to the 1980s in every aspect—the sound, the music video’s direction, the costumes, and even the fact that it was put out on an 8cm CD.

True to the title “Wasurerarenai no” (“I Can’t Forget”), reading the lyrics brings to mind those things you can’t forget—or don’t want to forget—that suddenly surface in your head.

Paired with a melody that evokes the AOR flavor popular in the ’80s, it comes together as a track that perfectly suits an urban night.

This is Sakanaction’s first anime tie-in song, depicting the passion and struggles of those who pursue truth.

Sakanaction’s unique sound—a fusion of electronica and rock—evokes curiosity and a forward-looking mindset.

It’s a must-listen for anyone who wants to experience that sensation of having your own common sense overturned when you encounter new knowledge.
