Hearts Grow (ハーツ・グロウ), was a Japanese pop/rock band. The band formed in 2004 and debuted as an indie band in 2005. After the release of two indie mini-albums the band signed to the major label Epic Records Japan in 2006. However the band officially disbanded a year after the release of their single "Sora" (theme song to Tetsuwan Birdy DECODE).
Information:
The group met in northern Okinawa at Ajisai Ongaku Mura (あじさい音楽村), a practice studio near an Okinawan high school. They began performing street lives in Okinawa. In 2005 they signed with the Ajisai indie label and released their first mini-album, HEARTS GROW. After the release of their second indie mini-album, Grow!!, the band signed with the major label Sony Music Entertainment under their Epic Records sub-label.
In 2006, the band made their major label debut with the single "Road". Not long after its release the band followed up with their second single: "Yura Yura" which was used as the ninth opening theme to the anime NARUTO. They are known for performing the ninth opening of NARUTO, Demashita! Powerpuff Girls Z's fourth ending, the fourth opening for Gintama.
In 2008, the band's drummer Yuuya had to leave the band because he broke his elbow. Takuya, of the band Hysteric Blue, joined the band to replace him, but was not officially in the band. After the release of "Sora" later that year the band went on hiatus for reasons that were undisclosed. The reason behind it was thought to be due to such things as: disagreements in the group, as well as the death of Hiraku Nakasone, who was the president of Ajisai Music (あじさい音楽). He died of cancer at age 46. Haruna and other relatives cheered after the event, which would be the anniversary of his 47 years.
However in November 2009, the band issued a statement proclaiming their disbandment. The reason for this was credited to musical differences between the band members. The statement also announced that the band's vocalist Haruna was currently working towards her debut as a solo artist. Although, Haruna later announced in 2010 that she was leaving the music industry to become a nurse.
In March 2010, Chiaki began her solo career, along with Nakasone Natsumi. On March 20th, Chiaki debuted at Bird Land, a concert venue in Nago, Okinawa. Then she began performing with other bands in Tokyo. She was present at the July 27 event Shibuya Eggman that occurred in July in Tokyo. On October 25th 2010, Chiaki participate in the Girl's UP! vol.71, famous event of the Shibuya Eggman for various female pop/rock acts.
In 2011, Natsumi joined a new band called Angrperchin, with similar styles, but with a more traditional sound of Okinawa. The band it is comprised of ex-ajisai band members. They disbanded in 2013.
Currently, Haruna has a solo project under name HaRuNa.

Hearts Grow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
太陽の光を浴びて
今日も目を覚ますよ
鏡も見たくなかった
涙は洗い流して
「どんな夜にも朝は来る」
君の言葉思い出す
遠くで頑張ってる
その手を引くように強く走り出す
負けられない想いは
熱い胸に強く抱きしめて
この手で夢をつかめ
あきらめない気持ちを
忘れずに駆け抜ける
いつでもいつでも
そばには君がいる
肩並べて見た虹の空も
雨に打たれた土の匂い
風に乗っていく
人込みの中さまよい
自分の居場所を求めてた
君がここに居てくれると
指切りした約束
つまづくその時
答えは転がってると
この手を差し出して 空に掲げれば
伝えたい想いは遠い空に
強く響かせて
僕らの夢をつかめ
あこがれた気持ちを繋いでく
この道で
いつでもいつでも 心に君がいる
見えない所で頑張る君のために
今僕もこの道で強く走り出す
負けられない想いは
熱い胸に強く抱きしめて
この手で夢をつかめ
伝えたい想いは
遠い空に強く響かせて
僕らの夢をつかめ
あきらめない気持ちを
忘れずに駆け抜ける
いつでもいつでも
そばには君がいる

The song "Road" by Hearts Grow is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of hope in the face of adversity. The lyrics tell the story of a person who wakes up every day to face the same struggles, but who refuses to give up on their dreams. The opening lines of the song, "Every day begins the same, bathing in the light of the sun. I wake up today, but I didn't want to look in the mirror," suggest a sense of fatigue and frustration with the monotony of life. However, the singer finds comfort in the words of a loved one who reminds them that no matter how long the night, morning will always come.
The chorus of the song encourages the listener to hold on to their dreams and never give up. "Hold on tight to the dreams you cannot lose, embrace them with all your might. Reach out and grab them with your own two hands, and never forget the feeling of never giving up." The song's overall message is one of hope and perseverance, and it encourages listeners to keep pushing forward in the face of adversity.
