At only 19 years old, this band is ready to fill the boots of the Ramones and become legends themselves.

With their unique style of psychedelic garage and a mix of R&B, Okamoto's have been likened to The Rolling Stones, The Who and The Stooges.

Okamoto's come with a message, barely 19 and they already have the fire and passion to take over the world questioning the forefathers of Rock itself. They do not simply know, but have the courage to ask Bob Dylan if in fact " The times have actually changed" and of course still maintain the punk rock mentality in asking why are they not learning about rock in school. They have the guts of fearless teenagers, scaring us one adult at a time. Live shows that make the blood curdle at the fact that they have only just graduated from high school, the old are afraid, the young are eating it up. They really are a horrifying band!

June of 2009 saw them release their debut album "Here are Okamoto's" and with over 100 live shows under their belt, Okamoto's are going to just get better and scarier with every step they take. So get on that "Rocket to Japan" because everyone is going to wanna dance with these guys

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of OKAMOTO'S's song “青い天国” delves into the emotions of not wanting to be constrained by societal norms and questioning one’s place in the world. The opening verses appear to be about a person walking through a subway station, on their way to an unknown destination. They are stuck in their head, gazing at the walls of the tunnel, wondering if anything good is going to happen to them. They are restless, and it seems like they are searching for adventure and something exciting. The chorus then talks about holding onto a blue heart, and running through the world without stopping. It inspires one to take risks and break free from the mundane routine of life.

The song appears to be about living life to the fullest, without fear of consequence. The line "まさかのやれちゃう感じ?" roughly translates to, "A feeling of being able to do the impossible?". The song encourages one to be daring and to live with enthusiasm. With lines like "青いダンスフロアーここは天国さ, 踊ろうぜ踊らにゃ損だ" - "This blue dance floor is paradise, let’s dance and not waste a moment", it is clear that the message of the song is to pursue one's passions and make the most of every opportunity.
