If you read this blog please listen to “K” from above YouTube video in advance if possible and give it a thought why the title of the music is “K”.īecause what I write here contains spoiler.Īctually I didn’t know why it is “K” first and after I knew the meaning of it I was impressed much more.īecause it was a song which was dedicated to a lonely cat? I still remember how much impressed I was at the time. “K” is the first one I listened to in my friend’s house. If they do the same I think they didn’t become such a popular band in Japan because there are so many of them.īut what they sang was always something related to life itself, not love or romance but was focusing on individuals.Īnd I felt most of the lyrics are from his real experiences and thoughts that the music they make touched our hearts deep inside. You might think there are many musicians that can scoop up these delicate things of teens’ hearts perfectly and I think, not all but mostly, that kind of musics are something related to love. Like you used to be, hearts of teens are really sensitive, fragile and Bump of Chicken scooped them up and delivered them in the rhythm of the music perfectly. He was like representative of soul and encouraged us, not giving up. Still I really came to like their music at the time because of unique voice of Motoo Fujiwara and deep lyrics he makes.Īctually some lyrics might have been like cheesy if you say it to someone face to face but he sings a song with all his heart without care and from the song we could feel his strong will of not giving in to anything.Īnd the lyrics stroke a chord within us, especially young people including I in those days. Why Bump of Chicken got so popularĪctually the music itself might not have been that high quality or modern rock in those days rather it sounded like simple but like old days rock to me. This band was the first band which I went see the real live in my life. They were super famous in overseas but not famous in Japan in those days.Īnd this Bump of Chicken was also recommendation from him and it became super popular band in a couple of years after he told me. He told me Radiohead, Oasis, Kula Shaker, etc. I have great friend who always think ahead of time before it becomes boom. I think Bump of Chicken is not famous in overseas that I picked up in my blog.Īnyway I think most of us have some kind of songs that remind us good old days when you listened to certain music.
