Part 5

Q Chen, 4th Year, Visual Studies

Artist: Galileo Galilei (Japan)
Song Title: Yotsuba Sagashi no Tabibito (The Traveler in Search of a 4-Leaf Clover)
Album: 四ツ葉探しの旅人 (Parade)



In this simple rock tune by a young Japanese rock band composed of 20-year-olds, we find both a sound reminiscent of the 90's, and energetic, unrefined punk flavors of the 2000s. The lyrics speak of traveling by bus to seemingly random locations, but with a clear goal in mind: finding the 4-leaf clover. I took summer courses and did not travel, but the song hit home for me in that it reminded me of the "clover" in life, something not necessarily found while traveling.
