Why do people repeat the same mistakes, even though they know better?
They have no money.
It's not good for their health.
They'll regret it tomorrow.
Yet, desire trumps reason, and people continue to walk towards pleasure.
"Pig" is a song that depicts the weakness and endearment of such human beings.
The motif is Iekei ramen, known as a soul food of Yokohama. However, this work depicts more than just appetite. It's about temperance and impulse, regret and happiness, self-loathing and self-affirmation. It's about humanity itself, wavering between these two extremes.
Because Boroboros has members from Yokohama, they were able to depict their love for local culture and self-deprecating humor. Through the image of being drawn to a rich bowl of ramen, they bring to light the "things you can't stop" that everyone harbors.
It's funny, yet a little painful.
It's silly, yet somehow relatable.
This is a love letter to Iekei ramen, and also an anthem of support for people who continue to lose to their desires.
What exactly is the relationship between these two? The first thing you notice is the man in white face paint. Next to him stands another man, strangely full of authority. It looks like there is some kind of hierarchy between them, but it is not that simple. I want to eat. I want to drink. I want to sleep. I want money. I want to act important. Say it out loud, and it is pretty much over. But that does not mean it disappears. Just for today is fine. What is wrong with that? I do not care. I am not interested. Give me money. I am God. In Boroboros, things like that never step back. Ambition over conscience. Cheat days over regret. God Water over salvation. Uprising over weakness. The things you usually have no choice but to swallow somehow look like they have won here. That is why you listen. Not because you want to be proper. Not because you want to be comforted. Because the more the rotten things step forward, the more the dictator-like presence of the man standing beside them strangely starts to work. Boroboros. A rock unit where desire, ambition, and grudges wear the most arrogant face in the room.
