1) ザ･ブーム (The Boom) is a Japanese rock band. Its members are Miyazawa Kazufumi (vocals), Kobayashi Takashi (guitar), Yamakawa Hiromasa (bass guitar), and Tochigi Takao (drums).
Vocalist Miyazawa Kazufumi who is the composer and lyricist for The Boom was inspired by the music of Okinawa. A single CD Shima-uta was released in 1993 with high sales, which reached approximately 1.5 million and brought fame to the band, around the world as well as at home. On December 31st 1993, The Boom participated in Kōhaku Uta Gassen, an exclusive show usually reserved for elite musicians.
After they released Shima-uta, the group went on to perform Kaze-ni Naritai, Kaero-kana, and Tsukisaemo-nemuruyoru, but Kazufumi wanted to write more Okinawa songs, so an album comprised purely of Okinawa songs was released.
Miyazawa Kazufumi released several solo albums, and composed songs for other musicians, including Akiko Yano, Kyoko Koizumi, and Rimi Natsukawa. Many people are under the misconception that Miyazawa Kazufumi's hometown is Okinawa, but this is not the case.
In April 2007, Um, the first album by Miyazawa's new band Ganga Zumba, was released. A short tour in Japan by the core members of this group (Miyazawa/Takano/Tatsu/Suzano/Vachet) was planned for August/September.
2) The Boom is an american rock band from Washington, DC with jazzy sound. The revolving line-up includes Fred T. Erskine (also Hoover, Abilene, June of 44, The Crownhate Ruin), Joe McRedmond (Hoover, The Crownhate Ruin), Booker T. Sessoms, Carlo Cennamo, Josh Larue, J. Carrier, Christopher Farrall and Stuart Fletcher. They recorded and released 2 albums: Movin' Out (1998) and Any Day of the Night (1999). A third album with a different lineup was recorded but never released.

今ここで 見つめている 君が一番きれい
夜が明けて 朝が過ぎて いくつ季節が流れても
いつの日も その日の君を 愛してもいいですか
いつか歩き疲れたときは 君が好きな歌を歌おう
星も月も見えない夜は 僕が君の光になろう
今ここで 輝いてる 君が一番きれい
交わす言葉 途切れた時は 君が好きな歌を歌おう
明日生まれ変わる世界で 僕が君の翼になろう
去年より おととしより 知り合った日の君よりも
今ここで 見つめている 君が一番きれい
今ここで 輝いてる 君が一番きれい
The Boom's song Hikari (light) is a heartfelt and romantic ballad that expresses the singer's love for a woman who he finds incredibly beautiful. The opening lyric, "More than the you that I met yesterday or the day before, the you that I am looking at right now is the most beautiful," sets the tone for the rest of the song. Despite the passing of time and changing seasons, the singer still professes his love for her and asks if he may continue to do so, even if they are no longer together.
The song's chorus expresses a desire to support each other through life's ups and downs. The lyrics talk about singing each other's favorite songs to lift their spirits when they are tired or feeling down. Additionally, the singer promises to be a source of light in the darkness, describing how he will be the light to guide her when she cannot see the stars or the moon.
The song's final verse repeats the opening sentiment that the woman he is looking at now is the most beautiful, and it adds another promise of support to the mix. The lyrics express the desire to be an even greater source of support in their next life. Overall, the song is a beautiful and timeless tribute to love and the power it has to lift us up and guide us through life's challenges.
