I read that, while writing this song, Kenshi lost his grandpa which made it really hard for him to finish writing this song; it was the first death of his relatives he experienced. He said in an interview, "I feel like Grandpa helped me write this song. To me, this song is saying "I'm sad because you passed, rather than helping someone cope with their loss. I feel like that because I didn't have the heart to help anyone when he passed away. But when listening to the song objectively, it made me realize it became a song for everyone who's suffering from losses. Again, Grandpa gave me this opportunity and he's the reason this song exists. "
another thing, idfk if im right but kenshi also had a dream of being in a funeral, there was one guy who was whistling and everyone found it disrespectful, but kenshi knew the dudes whistling was a way they were communicating with the dead. i dont know how that influenced lemon but it did apperntly
@@ScarletSheldon-pr3iq I believe thats why he wears high heels at the funeral in the MV, same high heels the girl wears dancing. to show some people might act different in a funeral and it might be a thing between them and the deceased
Oh, I cry when I listen to this song. The high heels he wears in the music video represent a "promise" or "connection" between the deceased and only himself. It means that the memories and relationship between two people is not something that others can know.
He worte the song for a TV show called "unnatural". It tells the life of forensic doctors and how people deal with the loss of loved ones. Kenshi Yonezu's grandfather passed away while he was writing this song.
The fact that he produces, writes, and sings his songs makes him a true legend!! Some songs I'd like to recommend: Shinigami, eine kleine, haiirotoao, uchiagi hanabi, flamingo.
You so late to come, but it's finally here! He's one of the purest and greatest talents in the music industry Japan has ever produced. Mad love for his vibe and the beautiful lyrics. You gotta check out " spinning globe" which is done for the latest Ghibli movie.
Thank you for your reaction. To me his work is about equal song writing, video art and poetry and there are so many aspects and dimensions to what he is doing. I suggest Flamingo, there is more, believe me, but I think that would make a good reaction. Have fun! :)
I would suggest looking up some covers of this song as well, because to me, I think it emphasizes how special the song is. what Kenshi Yonezu has created here is not just a deeply affecting piece of music that speaks to the heart of anyone who's experienced a loss before, but also a melody that invites others to take part in their own experience with the work. even I sometimes find myself humming it, and on a conceptual level, I think that's really cool... that a song about missing someone can draw people in like that. also, I don't know that this is really how choosing which artist does an anime opening works, but I feel like Kenshi Yonezu's sentimentality was a good fit for Chainsaw Man. if you haven't heard the full version of Kickback, trust me, there's a bridge section in the full song that feels downright angelic, in a way that really reminds me of what he's doing here. anyway, this one's my favorite cover:【歌詞付き】Lemon/米津玄師(Full Covered by あさぎーにょ)ドラマ『アンナチュラル』主題
I love how genuine you are in your reactions and your perspective on all these different songs in different languages. I’ve listened to this song so many times but I feel like I appreciate it way more now after your reaction! Would love to see you react more to Yuuri’s songs as well ❤
There's such a beauty in this song, about grief and how to cope with it. Of course, people will resonate with that. There was an phase in Japan where this was so overplayed in outlets and socmed, and occassionaly meme'd bc of how popular it was. And for a long time when that was happening I didn't even listen to the song because there'd be a place or video with it playing anyway. Now after probably like, a couple of years since I last heard it? This song is just as beautiful if not more as the first time I heard it. Glad you got to react to it so fresh, love to see that raw emotion 😂
This song is the theme song for the drama "Unnatural." It is a suspense drama in which a murder case is unraveled from a body that seems to have died an unnatural death. This PV was produced based on the concept of the drama, "listening to the voices of the dead. Incidentally, all the dancing woman was played backwards. The unnatural movements of the dancer express the afterlife. I think the lyrics were also written based on the concept of the drama, "We continue to fight against the absurdity of death in this world for the future of those who lose their loved ones but continue to live afterwards."
I miss Kenshi Yonezu(米津玄師) previous identity, a VOCALOID P Hachi (ハチ). He once suffered from high-functioning autism, but gradually recovered from the disease after being exposed to VOCALOID. After releasing the last VOCALOID song, he began to debut under his own name (Initially, he disliked his own name as well) As the final work of VOCALOID P Hachi "Suna no Wakusei/砂之惑星" I also recommend you to reaction to it
So happy you reacted to this song, its amazing. I was listening alot to this song cause it was fitting to my mood when my grandma passed, I just realized a few weeks after why when I looked up the lyrics and the background, especially that Kenshis grandfather also passed while he made that song. Started listening to alot of more songs of him afterwards and hes still my favorite artist and this is my favorite song of him. Absolutely heartbreaking but at the same time a great way and example how to deal with grief and sadness.
Did not expect this today love this song, Kenshi also did Chainsaw opening Kick back and My hero academia opening 2 Peace sign. Will recommend Eve again he did Jujutsu kaisen opening 1 Kaikai kitan, Chainsaw man ending 12 Fight song and My hero academia opening 11 Bokurano For non anime songs you can start with Dramaturgy, How to eat life, Raison d'etre, Last dance, Night is faint
my favorite Keshi Yonezu song is "Umi no Yuurei" it's from a movie and I haven't even watched that movie, I just love the song! it has a special place in my favorites songs of all time but at the same time it makes me sad coz it reminds me of the time Astel from Holostars sung this as a goodbye for his number 1 fan / the artists that makes his cover song art that passed away amidst the pandemic a few years ago
I know this is not what you normally do but PLEASE give “unnatural” live action Japanese drama a watch. It’s, without exaggeration, a masterpiece. And this is from personal experience, after watching the drama, everytime you listen to Lemon again, it hits EVEN HARDER, just because of all the scenes in the drama you will start remembering where this song usually starts to play at the end of every episode. Please give maybe the first one or two episodes a shot. The show is very popular in Japan but honestly not getting the spotlight it deserves in other parts of the world unlike its ending theme Lemon. If you think Lemon is a masterpiece, you’ll definitely appreciate Unnatural too
Next part is what I copy pasted, when I searched for a deeper signification of the song. And it's like I thought : a song about the loss of a deceased person, enjoy : "This beautiful song “lemon” by kenshi yonezu was created by him while mourning for the loss of his grandfather. It tells the story of death and life, from the perspective of those who you left behind, and those who had gone away from the realms of life. At first he was making it for a drama, but as his grandfather passed away, he tried add those feelings to the song too. And thus named it “lemon”. The song started with the perspective of the people that is left behind by the deceased, who still hopes that the tragedy is only a dream, how important you were for me, and how wonderful the memories that they spent together.He laments the sourness of the scent of Lemon that pains his heart greatly, before breaking to tears.During the part when Yonezu Kenshi sang「何をしていたの 何を見ていたの」, the perspective changed to the perspective of the deceased person.The deceased wishes for the person that is left behind to stay strong and just forget their memories. The deceased also stated that he is also lonely in the afterlife, and how unreal it was to be there, without his/her loved ones.In conclusion, the deceased said that every memories including bitterness and pain that he/she experienced was alive will always be remembered and loved. The deceased also laments the bitter scent of Lemons which also pains his/her heart greatly. So that’s what Lemon is about."
This was awesome. Please react to the March Comes in Like a Lion endings. Kenshi Yonezu did one of the endings called Orion and it is amazing. Also he actually drew one of the end cards for the anime as well.
From what I know, he was making this song during a tour, and his grandfather passed away at that time, which delayed the making of it, so he added his feelings about it in it.
When I first heard this song, I was going through a very hard time with a break up. The song helped me cope with being alone after a year or 2 of my relationship. I’m not sad about the break up anymore but happy about the good memories. I still listen to this song a lot and I still like that girl.
I guess many Japanese hit songs are more of emotional ones, compared to the mainstream of the world. I feel like a broken record, but The First Take performance of Angela Aki's "Tegami (Letter)" is another emotional masterpiece.
Now I would love to see a reaction for the TV series Unnatural (2018) where this song came from. It's such a decorated series that won MULTIPLE awards. This could be a great introduction for you to the JDrama scene.
THIS, this is the song that convinced me just how different japanese music is, they're just a different weight of popular music. thank you for reaction, thats exactly my first reaction to the song, even when watching the drama, the songs carried beautifully. I think the drama are going to be on netflix, but I dont know when, if you interested, please check them up
I know people have already been saying this, but this is used as a theme song for the Jdrama "Unnatural". It's really worth a watch imo. I don't really watch Kdramas or Jdramas, but I was immediately hooked with this one. Prolly biased as someone who's in the medical field, but I still think it was great. ^_^
Ah, so nostalgic. I feel that this song is what made Kenshi Yonezu suddenly famous outside of the internet world in Japan. *Before making his major debut, he was active as a famous Vocaloid music artist in the internet world. By the way, the name of this strange and advanced dancer is Nao Yoshigai. She is a filmmaker, choreographer, and dancer.
He is a singing poet. We recommend that you listen to it while looking at the translation. This song has an English translation, but most of Kenshi Yonezu's songs do not have English translations. The "rain" that appears in this song is a metaphor for "tears." It expresses the psychology of the bereaved family, who are unable to return to their daily lives due to their grief.
Hey bro ! you should react to Spinning globe, it's recent music by Kenshi that he wrote for the latest Ghibli film released to date "the boy and the heron", There is also Umi no yuurei, music that he written for the film "spirit of the sea". Two emotional bangers!
NO WAYYYYYYYYYYY NOOOO WAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY YOU GOTTA HAVE SOME POWER BRO, EVERYTIME I'M LISTENING SOMETHING OR ABOUT SOMETHING YOU JUST POST A REACTION OF IT A SECOND AFTER WTF
This song still hits like a bulldozer. There are btw many really nice covers of this song, many by artists as well. For example *Seungmin from Stray Kids* sang this live at concert I fully recommend his Uma to Shika song.
Awesome reaction, I'm glad more people are discovering his music. Just letting you and others know, he's going on his first world tour next year. It's only a small tour, but he's going to London, Paris, LA and NY as well as a handful of Asian cities (I think in South Korea, Taiwan and China?)
I love this song and I was excited to see you reacting to it. Yeah, it's a pretty emotional song and very beautiful, too. Other Kenshi Yonezu songs I'd recommend are "Flamingo" and "Haiiro to Ao". He's also popular in the Vocaloid fandom as he's made a lot of popular songs under the name Hachi. Vocaloid songs he made that I'd recommend are "Matryoshka" and "Sand Planet". Other Japanese music I'd recommend from other artists (find ones with subtitles cause some of these don't have ones in their official MVs): - "Happy End" by Back Number - "Say It" by Yorushika - "Bite the Second Hand" by Zutomayo - "Kaijuu no Hanauta" by Vaundy - "Hakujitsu" by King Gnu - "Dramaturgy" by Eve - "Plastic Love" by Mariya Takeuchi - "Cherish" by Ai Otsuka
Before I wrote the opening for chainsaw man I remember watching a video with the most popular songs in Japan and without any exaggeration there were at least 20 Kenshi Yonezu songs. both own and covers. He is a crazy artist. Obviously LiSA also had many positions occupied. Thanks for the reaction. I hope you make a Flamingo or fireworks. I love them.🎉
The other day, I was listening to this song while riding the train, and I burst into tears and missed getting off at my destination station. Even though I had heard this song many times and knew the lyrics, even though many years had passed, it still reminded me of my parents who passed away. The song tells me that my regret over my parents' death will never go away.
I remember when I got into Kenshin right before he sang the opening for MHA. Really wish more people learned about him before CSM. He writes and composes his own music and puts his heart and soul into them. A lot of his songs have meaning, for example this one. Lemon is based off his thoughts of his grandfather who unfortunately passed. Edit: you nailed it right in the head with the meaning on this song.
Love Kenshi Yonezu but I personally like his past vocaloid songs even better. Matoryoshka is my favorite (His name was Hachi back then btw) and I'd love to see you react to it. There's almost no reactions to this song online even though it's super popular.
"Eine kleine" is the one that destroys me. It's been used in so many AMVs (Genshin, TOTCF...) You MUST react to it, it's easy to find it with english subs
4:53 except that's not what he says there. What he's actually doing is *begging* this other person to forget him - he hates the thought that this person might feel any of the same pain he is feeling, and would rather be forgotten entirely than countenance the idea that this person he loves so much might experience the same grief
If you like Lemon you should check out the music video for "Machigai Sagashi" by Masaki Suda, it is also written by Kenshi Yonezu and an equally emotionally heavy song.
Idk if u have reacted to this band called "BUMP OF CHICKEN" they r a insanely huge band that has influenced many musicians in Japan. Such as Yonezu kenshi, One Ok Rock, Alexandros, Suda Masaki, Mrs. Green Apple, RADWIMPS, Asian Kung-Fu Generation, etc... pretty much most Japanese modern artist
If not mistaken, this song had a no. 1 spot billboard's battles with penapple song for months which is hilarious. Fruit songs topped the billboard lol.

I love this artist too it's my top 5 for sure I loved his song Shinigami it would be nice if you could check it out.
You need to watch(Lemon) female voice
Much matter that voice❤️✨
I read that, while writing this song, Kenshi lost his grandpa which made it really hard for him to finish writing this song; it was the first death of his relatives he experienced. He said in an interview, "I feel like Grandpa helped me write this song. To me, this song is saying "I'm sad because you passed, rather than helping someone cope with their loss.

But when listening to the song objectively, it made me realize it became a song for everyone who's suffering from losses. Again, Grandpa gave me this opportunity and he's the reason this song exists. "
I had no idea, thank you for explaining, those feelings really come across in this song! Beautifully heartbreaking.
another thing, idfk if im right but kenshi also had a dream of being in a funeral, there was one guy who was whistling and everyone found it disrespectful, but kenshi knew the dudes whistling was a way they were communicating with the dead. i dont know how that influenced lemon but it did apperntly
@@ScarletSheldon-pr3iq I believe thats why he wears high heels at the funeral in the MV, same high heels the girl wears dancing. to show some people might act different in a funeral and it might be a thing between them and the deceased
ooohh i thought that was to show that he doesnt care about other peoples opinions, interestingg@@JM-fk8bu
Oh, I cry when I listen to this song.
The high heels he wears in the music video represent a "promise" or "connection" between the deceased and only himself.
It means that the memories and relationship between two people is not something that others can know.
He worte the song for a TV show called "unnatural". It tells the life of forensic doctors and how people deal with the loss of loved ones. Kenshi Yonezu's grandfather passed away while he was writing this song.
Oh wow, I didn't know, thank you for explaining. So sad about his Grandfather.
@@GOTGames My whole family cried like a baby, his music made it even more worse in the sense I was now hyperventilating from tears 😭😂
世界中で流行るような中毒性のあるポップな曲ではないけど、この曲は確かに聴く人、観る人の心を打つからここまで多くの人に支持されてるんだなって改めて思った。
米津は印象的な曲を作ってくれるから頭から離れないしとっても好きな歌手のひとりだなぁ
Crazy how this is the same guy who sang the chaotic and funky Chainsaw man opening
Also shinigami
Yup, mind blowing range 💯
i mean... his vocaloid music's pretty chaotic too so no surprise for me hehe
And the Same Guy who named himself as Hachi 😊
Kenshi is very famous for making crazy and original music videos as well as spot on lyrics and instrumentals !
I think "Orion" should be next !
agreed
I love Orion so much, my favorite March Comes in Like a Lion ending. While he is at it he should do all the March Comes in Like a Lion endings.
Absolutely !@@Tatersalad666
Happily check that one out 💯
The fact that he produces, writes, and sings his songs makes him a true legend!!
Some songs I'd like to recommend: Shinigami, eine kleine, haiirotoao, uchiagi hanabi, flamingo.
So incredibly talented!!
hes also an illustrator lol
better try to listen vaundy too then 🙌🏻
God damn! FINALLY!!! “Loser” next plzzz
Yeah, Loser is a must
Definitely will check it out 💯💯
You so late to come, but it's finally here! He's one of the purest and greatest talents in the music industry Japan has ever produced. Mad love for his vibe and the beautiful lyrics. You gotta check out " spinning globe" which is done for the latest Ghibli movie.
Thank you for your reaction. To me his work is about equal song writing, video art and poetry and there are so many aspects and dimensions to what he is doing. I suggest Flamingo, there is more, believe me, but I think that would make a good reaction. Have fun! :)
I would suggest looking up some covers of this song as well, because to me, I think it emphasizes how special the song is. what Kenshi Yonezu has created here is not just a deeply affecting piece of music that speaks to the heart of anyone who's experienced a loss before, but also a melody that invites others to take part in their own experience with the work. even I sometimes find myself humming it, and on a conceptual level, I think that's really cool... that a song about missing someone can draw people in like that.
also, I don't know that this is really how choosing which artist does an anime opening works, but I feel like Kenshi Yonezu's sentimentality was a good fit for Chainsaw Man. if you haven't heard the full version of Kickback, trust me, there's a bridge section in the full song that feels downright angelic, in a way that really reminds me of what he's doing here.
anyway, this one's my favorite cover:【歌詞付き】Lemon/米津玄師(Full Covered by あさぎーにょ)ドラマ『アンナチュラル』主題
I love how genuine you are in your reactions and your perspective on all these different songs in different languages. I’ve listened to this song so many times but I feel like I appreciate it way more now after your reaction! Would love to see you react more to Yuuri’s songs as well ❤
❤️
I was moved by your beautiful tears.
「海の幽霊」と「POP SONG」も見てほしいな~
歌詞も一緒に見てくれるのは、本当に嬉しいです!
There's such a beauty in this song, about grief and how to cope with it. Of course, people will resonate with that. There was an phase in Japan where this was so overplayed in outlets and socmed, and occassionaly meme'd bc of how popular it was. And for a long time when that was happening I didn't even listen to the song because there'd be a place or video with it playing anyway.

Glad you got to react to it so fresh, love to see that raw emotion 😂
Petition for reaction to Kenshi Yonezu's Album - BOOTLEG
This song is the theme song for the drama "Unnatural." It is a suspense drama in which a murder case is unraveled from a body that seems to have died an unnatural death. This PV was produced based on the concept of the drama, "listening to the voices of the dead. Incidentally, all the dancing woman was played backwards. The unnatural movements of the dancer express the afterlife. I think the lyrics were also written based on the concept of the drama, "We continue to fight against the absurdity of death in this world for the future of those who lose their loved ones but continue to live afterwards."
THAT scene from episode 5...............
And it explains why Kenshi wearings High Heels 😊
Banger, love this song. Loser and Flamingo are also absolute bangers.
Seconded, we need a reaction to Loser and Flamingo
(海の幽霊)聴いてみてほしい。米津玄師の曲は本当に良い
You should check out his song Campanella it's beautiful and the mv is just gorgeous
"Campanella" is a song based on the Japanese literature "Night on the Galactic Railway."
It's a very literary and beautiful song.
I miss Kenshi Yonezu(米津玄師) previous identity, a VOCALOID P Hachi (ハチ).
He once suffered from high-functioning autism, but gradually recovered from the disease after being exposed to VOCALOID.
After releasing the last VOCALOID song, he began to debut under his own name (Initially, he disliked his own name as well)
As the final work of VOCALOID P Hachi "Suna no Wakusei/砂之惑星" I also recommend you to reaction to it
So happy you reacted to this song, its amazing. I was listening alot to this song cause it was fitting to my mood when my grandma passed, I just realized a few weeks after why when I looked up the lyrics and the background, especially that Kenshis grandfather also passed while he made that song. Started listening to alot of more songs of him afterwards and hes still my favorite artist and this is my favorite song of him. Absolutely heartbreaking but at the same time a great way and example how to deal with grief and sadness.
"Flamingo" and "Campanella" is also amazing by Kenshi,u need to watch it!
Did not expect this today love this song, Kenshi also did Chainsaw opening Kick back and My hero academia opening 2 Peace sign. Will recommend Eve again he did Jujutsu kaisen opening 1 Kaikai kitan, Chainsaw man ending 12 Fight song and My hero academia opening 11 Bokurano
For non anime songs you can start with Dramaturgy, How to eat life, Raison d'etre, Last dance, Night is faint
Don't forget Orion from March Comes in Like a Lion
@@captainkatsura26 Haven't seen that show so didn't know that
Thank you for the recommendations!
His music really is amazing!
@@shockhorn81 it's such a good song but went under the radar because the anime wasn't very popular
@@captainkatsura26 Yeah I really like song just didn't know it was tied to an anime
I’ve never seen you speechless. Sometimes it delivers more than words.
Yes, there are a lot more song that you need to react from him, Lady is one of the my favourite song from him.
my favorite Keshi Yonezu song is "Umi no Yuurei"
it's from a movie and I haven't even watched that movie, I just love the song! it has a special place in my favorites songs of all time
but at the same time it makes me sad coz it reminds me of the time Astel from Holostars sung this as a goodbye for his number 1 fan / the artists that makes his cover song art that passed away amidst the pandemic a few years ago
I know this is not what you normally do but PLEASE give “unnatural” live action Japanese drama a watch. It’s, without exaggeration, a masterpiece.

I could add it to my list to check out 💯💯
It is amazing the power of music to move viewers' emotions so much in a music video of less than five minutes.
So true ❤
uff i really love kenshi yonezu songs, his songs are amazing good reaction
Next part is what I copy pasted, when I searched for a deeper signification of the song. And it's like I thought : a song about the loss of a deceased person, enjoy :
"This beautiful song “lemon” by kenshi yonezu was created by him while mourning for the loss of his grandfather.
It tells the story of death and life, from the perspective of those who you left behind, and those who had gone away from the realms of life.
At first he was making it for a drama, but as his grandfather passed away, he tried add those feelings to the song too. And thus named it “lemon”.
The song started with the perspective of the people that is left behind by the deceased, who still hopes that the tragedy is only a dream, how important you were for me, and how wonderful the memories that they spent together.He laments the sourness of the scent of Lemon that pains his heart greatly, before breaking to tears.During the part when Yonezu Kenshi sang「何をしていたの 何を見ていたの」, the perspective changed to the perspective of the deceased person.The deceased wishes for the person that is left behind to stay strong and just forget their memories. The deceased also stated that he is also lonely in the afterlife, and how unreal it was to be there, without his/her loved ones.In conclusion, the deceased said that every memories including bitterness and pain that he/she experienced was alive will always be remembered and loved.
The deceased also laments the bitter scent of Lemons which also pains his/her heart greatly.
So that’s what Lemon is about."
Damn , I Liked this song without knowing the lyrics. now I like it even more T_T
He also did the My Hero Academia OP2, Chainsaw Man OP.
One of my favourite "new" artists in a long time
this song dominated the rankings back in 2018-2019
The song is recommended to listen with the drama Unnatural, this ost is the best with the plot.
Love this song and I’m glad you liked it!
This was awesome. Please react to the March Comes in Like a Lion endings. Kenshi Yonezu did one of the endings called Orion and it is amazing. Also he actually drew one of the end cards for the anime as well.
Thank you for the recommendation! Happy to check them out ❤️
From what I know, he was making this song during a tour, and his grandfather passed away at that time, which delayed the making of it, so he added his feelings about it in it.
This song is great and your interpretation is wonderful, too!
When I first heard this song, I was going through a very hard time with a break up. The song helped me cope with being alone after a year or 2 of my relationship. I’m not sad about the break up anymore but happy about the good memories. I still listen to this song a lot and I still like that girl.
I guess many Japanese hit songs are more of emotional ones, compared to the mainstream of the world.
I feel like a broken record, but The First Take performance of Angela Aki's "Tegami (Letter)" is another emotional masterpiece.
W reaction. Kenshi is one of the best. For more songs of his, I recommend "Flamingo" and "Shinigami."" Two of the coolest, swagiest songs I've heard.
Now I would love to see a reaction for the TV series Unnatural (2018) where this song came from. It's such a decorated series that won MULTIPLE awards. This could be a great introduction for you to the JDrama scene.
I have heard it's great ❤️
That Series was 12/10, Man 👌
I'd HIGHLY recommend the live version of his "Spinning Globe." It made the director of Studio Ghibli cry, it's absolutely gorgeous 🥺
THIS, this is the song that convinced me just how different japanese music is, they're just a different weight of popular music. thank you for reaction, thats exactly my first reaction to the song, even when watching the drama, the songs carried beautifully. I think the drama are going to be on netflix, but I dont know when, if you interested, please check them up
I know people have already been saying this, but this is used as a theme song for the Jdrama "Unnatural". It's really worth a watch imo. I don't really watch Kdramas or Jdramas, but I was immediately hooked with this one. Prolly biased as someone who's in the medical field, but I still think it was great. ^_^
Kenshi Yonezu is like the GOAT of all Jpop. YOASOBI?Ado? No one can match him.
Ah, so nostalgic. I feel that this song is what made Kenshi Yonezu suddenly famous outside of the internet world in Japan.
*Before making his major debut, he was active as a famous Vocaloid music artist in the internet world. By the way, the name of this strange and advanced dancer is Nao Yoshigai. She is a filmmaker, choreographer, and dancer.
This song is the theme song for TV show Unnatural, which is about a group of forensic scientists/mortician so.....
He is a singing poet.
We recommend that you listen to it while looking at the translation.
This song has an English translation, but most of Kenshi Yonezu's songs do not have English translations.
The "rain" that appears in this song is a metaphor for "tears."
It expresses the psychology of the bereaved family, who are unable to return to their daily lives due to their grief.
plss react to Spirits of the Sea also by Kenshi Yonezu !!!!
Hey bro ! you should react to Spinning globe, it's recent music by Kenshi that he wrote for the latest Ghibli film released to date "the boy and the heron", There is also Umi no yuurei, music that he written for the film "spirit of the sea". Two emotional bangers!
NO WAYYYYYYYYYYY
NOOOO WAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
YOU GOTTA HAVE SOME POWER BRO, EVERYTIME I'M LISTENING SOMETHING OR ABOUT SOMETHING YOU JUST POST A REACTION OF IT A SECOND AFTER WTF
This song still hits like a bulldozer. There are btw many really nice covers of this song, many by artists as well. For example *Seungmin from Stray Kids* sang this live at concert
I fully recommend his Uma to Shika song.
Kenshi Yonezu is so inspiring, seeing another Autistic person thrive in an industry they are passionate about motivates me to chase my dreams too
kenshi yonezu back to around 2017/2018 is the yoasobi and ado today, almost every song is JP billboard guaranteed
Lemon Kickback, damn charted in the BillBoard at Top ❤
Thanks for listening to Kenshi Yonezu's music😊There are other good songs, please listen to them.
Awesome reaction, I'm glad more people are discovering his music. Just letting you and others know, he's going on his first world tour next year. It's only a small tour, but he's going to London, Paris, LA and NY as well as a handful of Asian cities (I think in South Korea, Taiwan and China?)
This a lovely song
素敵なリアクションをありがとう。
私もこの曲を聴くたびに、歌詞とメロディの悲しい美しさに泣いてしまいます。
I love this song and I was excited to see you reacting to it. Yeah, it's a pretty emotional song and very beautiful, too. Other Kenshi Yonezu songs I'd recommend are "Flamingo" and "Haiiro to Ao". He's also popular in the Vocaloid fandom as he's made a lot of popular songs under the name Hachi. Vocaloid songs he made that I'd recommend are "Matryoshka" and "Sand Planet".
Other Japanese music I'd recommend from other artists (find ones with subtitles cause some of these don't have ones in their official MVs):
- "Happy End" by Back Number
- "Say It" by Yorushika
- "Bite the Second Hand" by Zutomayo
- "Kaijuu no Hanauta" by Vaundy
- "Hakujitsu" by King Gnu
- "Dramaturgy" by Eve
- "Plastic Love" by Mariya Takeuchi
- "Cherish" by Ai Otsuka
React to more of Kenshi Yonezu !
Before I wrote the opening for chainsaw man I remember watching a video with the most popular songs in Japan and without any exaggeration there were at least 20 Kenshi Yonezu songs. both own and covers. He is a crazy artist. Obviously LiSA also had many positions occupied. Thanks for the reaction. I hope you make a Flamingo or fireworks. I love them.🎉
A song he wrote when his grandfather died. ado、いいなぁ~~💕いってらっしゃいませ
Please react to Kanden and Shinigami also from Kenshi Yonezu
i reccomend you to react at his concert OPAL
The other day, I was listening to this song while riding the train, and I burst into tears and missed getting off at my destination station. Even though I had heard this song many times and knew the lyrics, even though many years had passed, it still reminded me of my parents who passed away. The song tells me that my regret over my parents' death will never go away.
英語ができないので日本語ですみません、これは日本のドラマでとても有名な主題歌です。
ドラマの内容のすべてを表現した楽曲で、この曲を聴くだけで泣いてしまいます。
これはとても素晴らしい曲であり、ドラマも素晴らしいので、機会があれば見ていただきたいです。
リアクションしてくださりありがとうございます。
Lemon is actually the most viewed Japanese language video on all of TH-cam which is kinda crazy
I remember when I got into Kenshin right before he sang the opening for MHA. Really wish more people learned about him before CSM. He writes and composes his own music and puts his heart and soul into them. A lot of his songs have meaning, for example this one. Lemon is based off his thoughts of his grandfather who unfortunately passed.
Edit: you nailed it right in the head with the meaning on this song.
Btw he doesnt say I loved you with all that sadness and pain, he says you who loved me even through all of that sadness and pain
Patiently waiting for my Friday TS video. 👀
Also see Kenshi's other songs
Really deep song
This is the Most Viewed Japanese Song/MV on YT. And also I Loved the TV Series For this Song ( Unnatural )
Love Kenshi Yonezu but I personally like his past vocaloid songs even better. Matoryoshka is my favorite (His name was Hachi back then btw) and I'd love to see you react to it. There's almost no reactions to this song online even though it's super popular.
"Eine kleine" is the one that destroys me. It's been used in so many AMVs (Genshin, TOTCF...)
You MUST react to it, it's easy to find it with english subs
4:53 except that's not what he says there. What he's actually doing is *begging* this other person to forget him - he hates the thought that this person might feel any of the same pain he is feeling, and would rather be forgotten entirely than countenance the idea that this person he loves so much might experience the same grief
This is THE most viewed Japanese music video in the world btw
That's amazing!
If you like Lemon you should check out the music video for "Machigai Sagashi" by Masaki Suda, it is also written by Kenshi Yonezu and an equally emotionally heavy song.
まってたあああ!!
Just like one of the poem quoted by JoJo, To love and win is the best thing. To love and lose, the next best.
Finally, after centuries 😂
1:29 that makes a lot of sense! Thanks for that I didn't realise she was moving in reverse I just thought it was some weird dance
you are correct. this is about coping with a loss.
No puedo quitarme esta canción de la cabeza
I cannot hear this song without hearing Okayu saying "UE!" between each line.
アンナチュラルというドラマの主題歌でした。ドラマを見てから再度聞き直してみてください。ドラマも大変良いドラマでした
Idk if u have reacted to this band called "BUMP OF CHICKEN" they r a insanely huge band that has influenced many musicians in Japan. Such as Yonezu kenshi, One Ok Rock, Alexandros, Suda Masaki, Mrs. Green Apple, RADWIMPS, Asian Kung-Fu Generation, etc... pretty much most Japanese modern artist
I really would love to see you react to Yuuri again
If not mistaken, this song had a no. 1 spot billboard's battles with penapple song for months which is hilarious. Fruit songs topped the billboard lol.
Love the reaction as always!
Please check out Kenshi Yonezu - Spinning Globe, I think you gonna like it too.
Eine kleine and Orion would be a good choiceee
oh wow didn't realize you've not done this one before. This is one of those songs that has been covered to high heaven xD
この曲は、大好きだったけど亡くなってしまった肉親のことを思いながら作ったという話も聞いたことがあります。
You can try "Natsu no Yuki" by "krage".
Please, "Koi" from hoshino gen next :)
BUMP OF CHICKEN Japanband 聞いてくださると嬉しいです
