My hero is Motoo Fujiwara, the vocalist and
guitarist of a Japanese band 'BUMP OF CHICKEN'. He makes many
kinds of music and writes the words and sings with his mild voice.
BUMP OF CHICKEN consists of four players and they have known each
other since they were in elementary school and junior high school
in Chiba. When they released the song 'TENTAI KANSOKU', it made
them famous. After that, an album 'JUPITER' made them more famous
and recently their fans have been increasing.
I like the band's music but especially I like the words very much.
When I read them for the first time, I wondered 'how moving these
words are!' with tears in my eyes. His words are magnificent and
sympathetic because there are the words like 'the space', 'the
stars', 'tears' and 'bravery' and so on.
His words changed my view of daily life or my way of thinking.
When I have a trouble or I am exhausted by a part-time job or
school, I always listen to these songs before I go to bed. I want
to be a person like Motoo Fujiwara and want to continue to listen
to his songs.
