Yorushika UNCUT 5 Song Study: Bubble/Haru/Just a Sunny Day for You /That's Why I Gave Up on Music/Hana ni Bourei

Yorushika is just the best band ive ever heard man

Nice to meet you.I'm Japanese. This video inspired me to become a patron. Please be sure to listen to and react to their other songs as well (such as “Say it,” “Spring Thief,” “Rain with Cappuccino,” “Ghost,” “Blur,” and others). I’m looking forward to your future reactions to Yorushika’s music.

This is one of my favorite artists! Pleas keep doing more analysis from them. I also like the melodic komplexity.

They do commercial tie-in songs, but they don’t let those songs drift away from the album’s theme. They make sure the tie-in tracks still fit harmoniously into the overall storyline of the album alongside the other songs.

Second comment here to add that n-buna does sing, albeit only as backup vocals to a lot of songs in the Plagiarism album. Check out “Flower and Badger Game”. He also sings in the beginning of “Play Sick”.

yes! I've been waiting for you to see Yorushika since early AoT days! haha, really hope to see you talk more about their music! My favorite band.

YESSSSS! Yorushika are just musical geniuses! Ado is my favorite artist and Yorushika is my #2. I listen to both everyday in my Spotify playlist. Yorushika is absolutely amazing live and you need to react to one of their full concerts, just amazing and a treat to the senses! Recommend; Say It. Spring thief. August, a certain, moonlight

And somehow they have 50+ more songs, all just as high quality and unique as these ones, and not a single miss

Yorushika is by far my favorite Japanese band. Suis (the vocalist) has a very calming voice but can be powerful when she needs to be. Matasaburo is one such song. The composer n-buna is often described as having a phd in music theory. His music is very interesting. Their live shows are often back lit so you don’t see their faces. Sunny is my favorite among their more recent songs while That’s Why I Gave Up on Music is my favorite classic Yorushika song. So glad you’re checking them out. Miyakocchi is another one I love.

You seemed quite interested in their concept albums. I would also recommend their conceptual live show "Previous Life" which they put up for free on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rl1xfaXlrxw It has full official subtitles including the interstitial spoken dialogue story parts.

Thanks for checking out the amazing artist Yorushika of course their live shows are even better! Of course its hard for me to not also recommended a very similar artists but unique in their own called Zutomayo. Would love to see you check out more from either group!

I first came across Yorushika in 2017 with their song "Say It," and they've been my favorite band ever since. I'm so grateful I understand Japanese, because n-buna's lyrics are so lovely. One of my favorite songs is "The Old Man and the Sea" - but unfortunately I hate Hemingway, whose book this song is inspired by. I love the song so much, though, that I finally decided to read the book this past December (I've read other works by Hemingway but I hadn't read this one) and after reading it, I realized that n-buna was specifically emulating Hemingway's signature writing style. I've always enjoyed the simple descriptive lyrics in the song, and I appreciated the book so much more because I could see how it had inspired the song. I still don't like Hemingway much, but I love how n-buna was able to make me think about Hemingway's writing in a different way.

Yes plssssss frieren its so peak

in general it is always recommended to watch one of their full live performances. They are very special in the way they design those concerts/albums, they have their own stories. Super fun band to listen to
