Shinsei Kamattechan / Shinjuku eki





JAPANESE POP AND ROCK:
Today, I'll show you the music video of Shinsei Kamattechan's song titled "Shinjuku eki" meaning Shinjuku-eki station".This is a cheering song for Japanese salaried workers who are tired with their hard working. Shinjuku-eki station is one of the places where the most salaried workers gather in Tokyo. They have to overwork everyday, so they have no time to spend with their girlfriends or families, and endure only a little amount of allowance given from their wives. The economic and political climates in Japan have taken a dark turn. However, those workers try to shake off the gloomy air and everyday, take trains forcing themselves to feel brisk at Shinjuku-eki station. In the video the vocalist "Noko" acts as a salaried worker in Shinjuku, and this song is catchy, easy listening and pop. The phrase which is an artificial Japanese "Chikarete naaaaaaaaaiiii " means "are you tired?". I hope you like this song.
