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
Oh! Pretty Baby

The lyrics of OKAMOTO'S song "Oh! Pretty Baby" convey a sense of admiration and affection towards someone special. The opening lines express a strong liking for this person, stating that they don't care about their zodiac sign or blood type, emphasizing that these external factors are irrelevant to their connection. The lyrics question the idea of possessiveness and wonder where one can find the means to bind someone they care about. Instead, they choose to freely and playfully spend time together, with the repetition of "waan" suggesting a joyful expression.
The chorus reveals the desire to be loved exclusively by this person, wanting to be cherished and valued above all else. The lyrics highlight the uncertainty of how to proceed in this situation, asking where they will sleep tonight. The repetition of "Baby, baby, pretty pretty pretty pretty baby" emphasizes the strong affection and admiration for this individual.
The second verse talks about being surrounded by corrupt adults but managing to not lose what is important. The lyrics describe the freedom to be selfish and do whatever they want, asserting that no one can compete with or compare to this person. The desire to remain together and the repetition of "Baby, baby, pretty pretty pretty pretty baby" reinforces the sentiment expressed throughout the song.
