See you againSEAMO
Even if two people once loved each other, a relationship that’s been strained will never be the same again.
.
.
That tangled mix of feelings and missed connections between a man and a woman is what this song, “Mata Aimashou,” portrays.
It’s also the memorable track with which SEAMO, who had been smoldering in a slump at the time, rose again like a phoenix.
It’s not a song for couples to sing, but I think it’s perfect to sing with a close friend while reminiscing about the past.
beetle (specifically, a rhinoceros beetle)aiko
“Kabutomushi” by aiko, released in 2000.
Among aiko’s many love songs that resonate with girls, this is a famous and adorable track.
It makes your heart flutter as it captures the feelings of a girl lovesick with romance.
Sing this at karaoke and he might just fall head over heels!
ButterflyKaela Kimura
Kaela Kimura’s “Butterfly” is a track released in 2009, and it became explosively popular as a song used at weddings.
While Kaela Kimura has many up-tempo, pop songs, this one is a ballad.
It’s a piece that feels calm even within its brightness.
Loco LotionORANGE RANGE
If you’re looking for a song that gets everyone shouting along, “Locolotion” is a great pick.
It’s a track released in 2004 by the rock band ORANGE RANGE.
The song depicts a romance between a handsome man and a beautiful woman set on the beach.
Enjoy its comedic storyline and summery vibe, and don’t forget to throw in some call-and-response.
Plus, the steady tempo makes it easy to sway to the rhythm and belt out the lyrics, which is part of its appeal.
if…DA PUMP
This is the 12th single by the male dance and vocal group DA PUMP, whose massive 2018 hit “U.
S.
A.” is still fresh in our minds.
Known as the group’s biggest hit, it offers a cool arrangement with a lyrical melody and slick rap, setting it apart from DA PUMP’s signature party songs.
Many people of that generation probably remember arguing at karaoke over who would sing the vocal parts and who would take the rap.
It’s a hip-hop tune that’s become a post-2000 karaoke staple, with the way you enjoy it changing depending on who you go with.
Age Age Every KnightDJ OZMA
This “Age-Age EVERY Knight” is a cover/arrangement of Korean pop star DJ DOC’s “Run to You.” Just like the title “Age-Age” (meaning hyped-up), the content is a bit provocative and brimming with heat and flamboyance.
OZMA’s striking performance—singing passionately while completely naked—also drew attention.
With a sound that can only be described as frenzied, it’s the perfect track for when you want to go all out and have fun.
