イージュー★ライダー
奥田民生 Lyrics

In the song イージュー★ライダー (Easy Rider), 奥田民生 describes a carefree and liberating experience of riding a motorcycle with no particular destination in mind. The road seems to extend endlessly as the rider and his partner enjoy the comfort of their speed. The only company they have is each other and the music they create by singing along to their favorite songs, recorded on cassette tapes. They don't need any distractions, such as TV or video, because the journey itself is enough to keep them entertained. The boredom they might feel is also something they enjoy - it's part of the freedom they experience in being able to do what they want, when they want.

The second verse further emphasizes the idea of living in the moment and not worrying too much about the future. The rider doesn't care about complicated things that might be brought up in conversation; he just wants to keep going and see what lies ahead. Even if reality might throw them off track, with the unpredictability of tomorrow looming ahead, they'll still find a way to make the most of it. The freedom and joy they experience is expressed by the sweat on their brows and the tears in their eyes, both of which are signs of the passion they have for a carefree and limitless lifestyle. The wide range of emotions they feel, along with their creative ideas and sense of humor, are all part of what makes them resilient and unstoppable. In short, the song evokes a sense of living fully and unapologetically, while maintaining a gentle sense of humor and playfulness.
