GLAY started in 1988, when they were in high school, with TAKURO as the guitarist, TERU as the drummer and a bassist who quit when they decided to head to Tokyo. They needed a vocalist, so TERU made a tape of his singing to give to TAKURO and was immediately recruited for the part. On the search for another guitarist, HISASHI was asked to join but turned down the offer, as he was already part of a locally well-known heavy punk/rock band called 蟻 (Ari), which better suited his taste in music. When Ari disbanded, HISASHI accepted TAKURO's offer and became the lead guitarist of GLAY. By the time of TAKURO and TERU's graduation, GLAY had become more popular in their hometown of Hakodate and were playing in full live houses. Following HISASHI's high school graduation in 1990, the three of them moved to Tokyo to try and further expand their musical career. However things did not seem to improve for them in Tokyo. Their gigs only attracted a few people, and sometimes none at all.
During this time, members (particularly drummers) were constantly joining and leaving the band. When their bassist quit, Takuro had heard that JIRO, who was also from Hakodate and had played with the indie band ピエロ (Pierrot) (different from the now disbanded Japanese rock band PIERROT, that enjoyed mainstream popularity), had moved to Tokyo and invited him to join GLAY. He, too, declined the offer, insisting that he was already heading in the right direction for himself. It wasn't until TAKURO asked him to play at just one show to fill in for their missing bassist that he decided to go. Following that show, JIRO continued to receive invitations to play with GLAY, and in 1991 he had become GLAY's official bass player, finalizing the official four member lineup
Takuro was heavily influenced by his favourite band, The Beatles, and took a great interest in composing original songs and lyrics. The band name "GLAY" is a deliberate misspelling of the word "gray", which represents the style of music they wanted to play; a mixture between rock (black) and pop (white). Although GLAY primarily composes songs in the rock genre, they have also composed songs in styles ranging from reggae to gospel. Due to their musical diversity, beautiful lyrics and wonderful melodies, they have become one of the most successful and well known bands in Japan, and most of Asia.

GLAY Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
鮮やかに夏の声が聞こえてきたら
Want to go to seven sea
Kissを許して 好きと伝えて 水しぶき上げて海にダイブ
今年こそはと期待を胸に 泣き濡れた日々を蹴飛ばして
恋人は誰? 気紛れな君 その輝きは止められない
ココロのRadio ボリューム上げて
Wow 愛を受け止めて Stay tuned
外してしまおう 腕の時計とルールを
ビルの谷間で見上げた夜空には やがて広がる
Hello sunrise for today
バスに揺られて ジェットに乗って それぞれに好きな服を着て
今年こそはと予感を胸に 舞い上がれこの大いなる日に
恋人といる 僅かな時に 何を話せばよかっただろう?
見つめていたい 愛の間に間に 二人きり・圏外・邪魔はない
Wow 焼けた肌ミセテ 月と君が溶け合うまで
Come on! darling kiss me deep! again
夏のキラメキ 風の行方に 水しぶき上げて海にダイブ
今年こそはと期待を胸に 泣き濡れた日々を蹴飛ばして
恋人になる 君がいるなら 汚れた世さえ楽園になる
大袈裟だって思わないでね 何もかも今始まるから
Wow 明日を見出した二人の結末は Into light
Come on! darling kiss me deep! again
