“NEW CLASSIC” is the first new song of the year by Naniwa Danshi (なにわ男子), and with it, they welcome the colors of spring!
Now streaming worldwide exclusively on YouTube and YouTube Music!
Springtime is a time of change – color has returned to the world after a bleak winter chill and flowers, trees, and hope start growing again.
Filled with color and that certain Naniwa Danshi brand of fun, “NEW CLASSIC,” is also the nationally syndicated TV commercial track to suit and formalwear brand AOKI’s ‘New Graduates’ campaign!
It incorporates motifs from “Spring” of Vivaldi’s classical masterpiece “The Four Seasons” and serves as an uplifting song for freshmen embarking on new journeys in education, employment, and life.
Continuing the casual pop vibes from their previous tracks, Naniwa Danshi brings “NEW CLASSIC,” a song that’s fresh, fun, and perfect for spring! Not to forget the orchestral instruments! The instruments give “NEW CLASSIC” a classy yet expensive energy while accompanying Naniwa Danshi’s classic fresh and upbeat energy throughout the song.
The song by itself is really catchy and has that “on repeat” potential. You can listen to it on repeat and will not get tired of it. The line distribution is really well done, with every member getting an equal number of lines. Not to forget Daigo Nishihata’s solo line at 1:36, just before the chorus in the second verse, takes the song to a different level. The song, with its chorus in particular, is so fun to listen to that it just keeps growing on to you with every listen.
Their costume carries on the past trend of them wearing casual clothes like they did in “Make Up Day,” “I Wish,” and “Join Us!.” Except this time it’s much more colorful and fun; and it shows everyone’s personal style at the same time.
The music video is colorful and fun, yet casual but sophisticated at the same time. The beginning of the music video will remind you of their song “NANIWA’n WAY, “which was included as a B-side track in their debut single “UBU LOVE,” because of the similar colorful set.
From there, you can see them stepping into a new world of possibility, as we witness a never been seen before Naniwa Danshi. That includes the use of multiplex synthesis and VFX, and dancing with a live 24-person orchestra behind them. The floral VFX during the last chorus is just the perfect touch to elevate the spring vibes of the song.
On their YouTube and TikTok, the charming boys have also created custom videos with the track on TikTok, featuring sweet words of encouragement to all fans on the cusp of bright futures and new adventures this season!
Check them out and get your heart ready to be swooned by the charm only Naniwa Danshi can produce in this fresh and uplifting season of spring!
All videos on YouTube are subtitled in English by devoted fans from the community!
