Motoharu Sano has recorded a new version of “Glass Generation.” The title will be changed to “I Don’t Want to Be a Boring Adult (New Recording)” and will be released on January 17th.

Motoharu Sano, who has a unique presence in the music scene with his excellent pop sense, outstanding songwriting and live performance, will celebrate his 45th anniversary since his debut and the 20th anniversary of the formation of The Coyote Band in March 2025.

The new single “I Don’t Want to Be a Boring Adult (New Recording)” can be said to be the kick-off for this anniversary year.

“Glass Generation”, released as Motoharu Sano’s second single on October 21, 1980, is one of Sano’s most representative songs. The lyrics express the gap between reality and ideals, anxiety about social change, and the desire for freedom. This song has a universal theme that is relevant not only to the young people of the time, but also to the current generation, and it continues to influence many listeners today as a masterpiece that will not fade over time.

“I Don’t Want to Be a Boring Adult (New Recording)” is a completely new recording of this famous song “Glass Generation” with my ally The Coyote Band. The sound was created by Shojiro Watanabe and UK mastering engineer Matt Colton, resulting in a truly modern rock sound.

Additionally, Sano and the band are currently recording a new album. The theme he is working on is “Redefining Motoharu Classics.” His new album, filled with his desire to present his classics to a new generation, is scheduled to be released in March.

The music video for the new song “I Don’t Want to Be a Boring Adult (New Recording)”, which is suitable for the start of the 45th anniversary, has also been completed. It will be premiered on January 16th at 23:45.

This is not a self-cover. It’s a redefined version. I took on the challenge with the feeling of going beyond the original.
I hope new and old fans enjoy it.
