Bedroom DiscoRAM RIDER
This is a track that wraps you in a mysterious exhilaration, as if your own room transforms into a dance floor.
Its electro sound and wistful melody blend together beautifully.
Produced by Japanese music producer RAM RIDER, it was released in September 2005 as his second major single.
The theme is a summer memory: dreaming of the dance floor from an air-conditioned room.
The lyrics’ worldview, where a sense of confinement intersects with liberation, sparks the listener’s imagination.
It was also featured in a Glico Pocky commercial and later included on the acclaimed album “PORTABLE DISCO.” It’s perfect for when you want to immerse yourself in music alone, or for a late-summer drive.
crimsonX JAPAN
Shifting abruptly from quiet guitar arpeggios to an intense metal sound, its dramatic structure evokes the feeling of listening to classical music.
As X JAPAN’s first single after their major-label debut, it can be seen as a work that strongly reflects the deep sorrow and inner conflict within YOSHIKI.
The protagonist’s despair—torn apart by lost love and steeped in the hues of passion and tragedy—comes through with painful clarity.
Released in September 1989 and included on the landmark album BLUE BLOOD, the song was also featured in an NTT DoCoMo commercial and won the Best New Artist award at the Japan Cable Radio Awards the same year.
This is a historic, soul-stirring masterpiece for those who want to unleash the emotions buried deep within and seek catharsis through the power of music.
BetelgeuseYuri
Yuri’s “Betelgeuse” was practiced by a lot of my students, regardless of gender.
The more lessons I gave on it, the more I thought, “This song is tough,” so it’s perfect for those confident in their vocal skills! The overall range is D3–D5, making it a higher-key song.
The tricky parts are definitely the chorus and the C section.
Once you start singing, there’s no rest, no room to breathe, and many people struggle with switching to falsetto like Yuri does.
Most of Yuri’s songs don’t offer breaks once you begin, so the key is balancing how much volume to use—what percentage of your full power you’re singing with.
As for breath placement, if you hold out every note, you’ll lose track of where to breathe, so try cutting off phrase endings to create small gaps.
Don’t forget to take a breath in those spots! If you want to switch to falsetto, relax and let the sound float upward lightly—this naturally transitions into falsetto, so give it a try!
BestieBAND-MAID
A BAND-MAID song born from a collaboration with Incubus guitarist Mike Einziger, celebrating a bond that transcends borders.

Its emotional melody, shining through the heavy rock sound, feels like a message of gratitude and trust for companions who’ve shared many years together.
Released in April 2024 and included on the album “Epic Narratives,” the track also received an emotional first live performance with the co-writer himself on stage at Tokyo Garden Theater in May of the same year.
Listen while thinking of a dear friend, and you may find yourself rediscovering just how much they mean to you.
