Andymori first formed in 2007, performing live at live houses in the Tokyo area. Their first big event was the Fuji Rock Festival in 2008, where they performed on the new artist stage. The band released their first EP "アンディとロックとベンガルトラとウィスキー" in October 2008, as the first new artist signed to Youth Records. This was followed by their full-length album in February 2009, "andymori".The lead single, "Follow Me," was chosen as an iTunes Single of the Week free download song in January.

The band performed at many of the major summer festivals in 2009, such as Rock in Japan and Summer Sonic.In October, the band held their first one man live, and featured on the 10 year anniversary tribute album for Quruli.

In 2010, the band released their second album, "ファンファーレと熱狂". Prior to its release, they were picked as one of the iTunes Japan "Sound of 2010" break-through artists,and their video for "Follow Me" was nominated for the Best New Artist award for the 2010 Space Shower Music Video Awards. The album has so far reached #9 on the Oricon albums daily charts.

At the end of 2010, their first drummer left the band, being replaced by Kenji Okayama (岡山健二), his first live with the band being in December of the same year. At the beginning of 2011, they got the Grande Prize at the 3rd CD Shop Awards and released a digital single called "兄弟", donating all the funds that came from it to the reconstruction of Japan after March 11's tsunami and earthquake. Their third album, "革命", was released soon after, in June; it reached the 8th position on the Oricon daily album charts.

On 2012, they had plans to release their 4th album, "光", at May 2nd (it was originally planned to be released in March 3rd, but was postponed), and perform a Zepp Tour in order to promote it.

In 2014, it was announced that Andymori would break up after seven years. The band released its final album, Uchū no Hate wa Kono Me no Mae ni , on June 26 of that year, and perform a tour from July until September. The final date of the tour was held at the Nippon Budokan on September 24.

オレンジトレイン
andymori Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

波に乗るのにももう疲れて
ガラクタに囲まれて暮らしながら
豚たち目配せして乗り込んでいく
オレンジトレイン
いつかのあの太陽を忘れない
いつかのあの体温を忘れない
気遣いながら吸い込まれていく
オレンジトレイン

人身事故で君に会えない
乾いた空に響くアナウンス
優しい時間に撫でられながら
諦めながらみつめた
オレンジトレイン
いつまでも続くのか
眠たそうな顔しては
逃げ場所を探しては
小さな息をつくけれど
お願い最後のお願い聞いて
あの空の向こうに
連れていってほしい
じとりとあるようで
消えてしまいそうなボーダーライン
運ばれていくラジオの声と
筑豊本線とオレンジトレイン
オレンジトレイン

人身事故で君に会えない
乾いた空に響くアナウンス
優しい時間に撫でられながら
諦めながらみつめた

オレンジトレイン
オレンジトレイン

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to andymori's song "オレンジトレイン" depict the singer who seems to be experiencing a sense of exhaustion and disconnection from the world around them. They're surrounded by clutter and have lost touch with the joys of life. However, the Orange Train represents a small glimmer of hope for the singer as they remember past memories of warmth and kindness. Although they can't meet with a loved one due to an accident and are left with nothing but the sound of the train announcements, they still remember the good times and cherish the moments of gentleness as they come closer to letting go. The repetitive mention of the Orange Train could also be a metaphor for a new beginning or hope for a better future.

Overall, the song portrays a sense of sadness, weariness, and longing for something that has gone missing in the singer's life. The theme of memory and hope is woven through the lyrics and gives the listener the sense that there is still something to hold onto and a reason to keep moving forward despite the difficulties they may face.
