better togetherJack Johnson
One thing I can say is this: we’re better together.
The gentle, warm sound of the acoustic guitar is comforting.
It works seamlessly as background music, and the message is soothing.
It’s a song that has become a Jack Johnson classic.
BedtownKing Gnu
If you want to sing King Gnu’s songs, you probably already have a decent level of vocal ability.
Among you, many might be confident in your high notes, right? For those people, I recommend Bedtown.
Since the song features a lot of low-range falsetto, it should be very singable for those who are good at falsetto.
If falsetto isn’t your strong suit, there are many parts that are intentionally sung in falsetto even though they’re within chest-voice range, so feel free to try singing those parts in chest voice instead.
Separate skiesKing&Prince
It portrays the feelings of two people who are forced to part ways in the process of chasing their dreams.
The expression of the sky enveloping the two of them isn’t something you hear often, so it feels fresh.
The melody, rhythmically marked over the smooth, mellow sound, and the members’ vocals are pleasant—catchy and easy to listen to.
In particular, Kishi’s powerful singing in the latter half is a real highlight! Parting is painful, but thinking that we’re both doing our best under different skies gives me courage.
I think it’s a hidden gem on King & Prince’s first album, “King & Prince.”
crimsonLittle Glee Monster
This is Little Glee Monster’s 13th digital-only single, released in January 2024.
It was selected as the theme song for the film “Karaoke Iko!” As many might guess from the title, it’s a cover of X Japan’s hit song “Kurenai.” The original X Japan version is an up-tempo HM/HR number, but this one features a piano-centered acoustic arrangement, which makes it an interesting take.
Since the original was sung by a male vocalist, this is a song I’d especially love to hear low-voiced women sing.
Throughout the piece, sing with strength so your voice doesn’t thin out.
Baby Don’t StopOKAMOTO’S
This is another track strongly influenced by early garage rock.
At a time when fewer bands are seriously sticking to three chords, they boldly fit Japanese lyrics into a straight three-chord progression.
The vocalist, Sho Okamoto—his poised stance and performance are reminiscent of Mick Jagger of the Stones! This is a song that even rock fans should find convincing, don’t you think?
BEST FRIENDSMAP
SMAP’s “BEST FRIEND” has a simple melody line that’s easy to sing and makes you want to listen on repeat! The friendship-themed lyrics express gratitude to dear friends and depict bonds that overcome hardships, delivering a message that truly resonates.
If you want to have a great time at karaoke with your close friends or teammates, I highly recommend this song! Its easy-to-remember melody and unifying lyrics will draw empathy and help deepen the bonds among your group.
The Rhythm of PartingTHE ALFEE
This is the 14th single by THE ALFEE, released in 1982, marking their restart as they shifted genres from folk to rock.
The track incorporates elements of progressive rock, which was popular at the time.
Listening to it now, its forward-thinking sound is truly striking.
