"Tokyo Calling" OUT NOW - atarashiigakko.lnk.to/TokyoCalling

LYRICS (EN)
Tokyo calling
We're on the edge, almost falling
Like a nightmare, a dystopian story is looming
Tokyo calling
City's pulse, almost falling
Forever enthralling, beyond reach, hope's distant glory

Tokyo calling
Tokyo calling
Tokyo calling

Tokyo calling
Tokyo calling
Tokyo calling

Dad's stuck in the grind, the job's grip is appalling
Brother's chained to the screen, at his wits end at college
Mom's escaping reality, addicted to idols
An unexpected melody comes from afar, our destiny comes crawling

Tokyo calling
Today, the city's boring too
We're struggling with a never ending sorry
Tokyo calling
People are talking, where's the future of our hope?
In the woods, we're trapped, unable to escape

Tokyo calling
Tokyo calling
Tokyo calling

Tokyo calling
Tokyo calling
Tokyo calling

Life's short, dad's starting a part-time job at a soba shop
Life's short, brother's gonna work at a cat cafe
Life's short, mom's gonna work at a cabaret joint
Under clear blue skies, together we sing to that tune

Tokyo calling
Don't hesitate to move forward
Hope for the future is here, carving our history
Tokyo calling
Don't hesitate to move forward
Hope for the future is here, carving our history

Tokyo calling
Be proud of moving forward
Hope for the future is here, carving our history
Tokyo calling
Be proud of moving forward
Hope for the future is here, carving our history

We are marching
We are marching
We are marching

We are marching
We are marching
We are marching

We are marching
We are marching
We are marching

We are marching
We are marching
We are marching

Tokyo calling
Be proud of moving forward
Hope for the future is here, carving our history
Tokyo calling
Be proud of moving forward
Hope for the future is here, carving our victory

I'll tell youngsters that this was attack on titan.

Can we discuss how CLEAN their dance moves are? Their vocals, the visual... WERK

My 3 year old had me play this song for 40 mins straight, I speak Japanese now. 🇲🇽

obsessed with the instrumental on this. sounds like the world is falling apart at the seams

LOVE how they are paying homage to kaiju movies and how the video, like the title being "Tokyo Calling" and sounding just like "Tokyo Korin" meaning descending on Tokyo, is about these girls being the heroes of Tokyo, but also being the titanic kaiju that descend on Tokyo. They are trying to say that Japanese city life is depressing and awful, and to save its people, Tokyo would have to destroy its current way of life. It's such a cool way of putting visuals to the song.

Im so glad people are finding out about Atarashii Gakko thru Meg!! They’re so talented and the songs are catchy!! Love them both!!!🥲💖

WHO CAME FROM COACHELLA??? YOU ALL ARE AWESOME!! IM SO GLAD YOU ALL GOT TO BE INTRODUCED TO THIS WONDERFUL GROUP OF TALENTED WOMEN!

I love how the song starts out with a sound-the-alarm vibe, and transforms into a call for unity towards the end. From something totally negative to something totally positive. Pure genius.

In a market that incentivizes rinse and repeat, I do appreciate that Atarashii Gakko are doing their own thing. It would have been easy to lean into pop with their success but they try something new and it's successful. They should be proud of every second of it.

Coachellaかっこよすぎた

I really like how the "We are Marching" kind of sounds like "We Imagine", which might not be intentional but it adds a nice layer to it.

idk what their other music is like, but THIS IS REAL PUNK LETS GOOOOO

the reference to The Clash’s “London Calling” and their fusion of punk’s anger at society’s flaws with uniquely Japanese cultural references to drive the point home is just immaculate

Why can't I stop listening to this, banger tune

RIZIN 46から来ました！リズムも心地良かったです！かっこよかったです！

Megan Thee Stallion brought me to a Gem ! This song & video is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

My 13 yo daughter wants me to let AG know that they are awesome, and she is such a big fan.

RIZINで流れてましたよー！！！！

This is the kinda song that doesn't draw you in at first but gets better with each listening

I like the dance omg, this type of people I like to be friends J-pop > K-pop
