DREAMS COME TRUE – “Nando Demo”

“Nando Demo” is popular across all generations.

I used to sing it a lot too, and it seems many people are familiar with the chorus, so it always got the crowd going.

It’s definitely a song worth knowing! The tricky part of this song is the breathing during the chorus.

Where the same phrase repeats, you can run out of breath and it gets tough.

Proper diaphragmatic breathing is important, but rather than belting each phrase with full power, try to focus on connecting the lines as you sing.

When you shift your mindset, your body will adjust so your breath lasts through the phrase.

Also, the last chorus is the most demanding; singing it with a powerful voice is more for advanced singers.

Don’t push yourself—start by singing it lightly, and you’ll get used to it little by little.

It’s also a great song for strengthening your chest voice, so give it a try in practice!

JUJU’s “Chiisana Uta” isn’t the kind of song where you belt; it’s a gentle, soothing piece that you can sing without straining your throat.

The A and B sections are in a relatively low range and are sung softly, almost like speaking.

The chorus goes a bit higher, but it’s basically sung in falsetto.

Since JUJU isn’t the type to belt in the first place, many of her songs are probably comfortable to sing.

It might be good to add a variety of songs to your repertoire.

Try singing with that airy, effortless feel that’s characteristic of JUJU.

It’s an idol song, but it’s not overly sparkly, so I think it’s easy to sing at karaoke.

The structure is very clear, building up nicely in order from verse A to verse B to the chorus.

Even if your vocal range is narrow, adding momentum to each melodic section might help you gradually get a feel for projecting your voice.

That said, the chorus is a bit on the higher side.

If it’s hard to sing in chest voice, don’t strain—switch to falsetto.

Since falsetto uses a lot of breath, with practice you may find you can produce a stronger falsetto voice before you know it.

Try taking breaths through your mouth and aim your voice forward as you sing!

It’s a stylish, quirky sound with jazz and blues elements.

In fact, one of my students who couldn’t really hit high notes practiced this song over and over in vocal training.

The range itself isn’t wide and it’s sung mainly in the middle register, but there is a section in the chorus that goes a bit higher.

If you lock into the rhythm and nail the timing there, you’ll be able to sing it smoothly! Overall, the key to this song is the rhythm, so it’s important to clearly and even exaggeratedly keep the beat.

Moving your body while you sing helps you stay relaxed and prevents you from straining your voice, so I’d love for you to lean into the cool vibe and sing it with style.

Also, you’ll probably notice this naturally if you’re riding the groove, but make sure to cut off phrases cleanly where needed and value the spaces—sing with a strong sense of phrasing and rests.

Nogizaka46 'Navel Orange'

It’s said to be a song released as a single in March 2025, with a double center featuring Kazu Inoue and Aruno Nakanishi.

The overall vocal range is A3–C#5, and since it’s mostly sung around E4, it’s a comfortable key for women.

Listening to the track, it isn’t the type where you belt; it’s sung in a calm, conversational tone.

Because the song flows smoothly, adding a bit of dynamic contrast can help give it definition.

In particular, it’s important to pay attention to the openings of melodic phrases and the accented parts.

Also, where the chorus shifts to head voice on the higher notes, aim for a light delivery and be careful not to add unnecessary tension.

This track was released as a digital single on August 8, 2025, and became the theme song for the drama “We Still Don’t Know the Rules of That Star.” It’s a song that validates the “uneasy feelings inside” and the “overwhelming emotions” that many teenage girls experience, making it one that really stays close to adolescent emotions.

Rather than aiming to “sing it perfectly,” it’ll feel more cathartic if you sing it as a way to “let your feelings out.” The overall vocal range is A#3–D#5, with the high notes sung in falsetto.

Smoothly switching between chest voice and falsetto is the key.

Use more breath to make the transitions seamless.

Breathe in slowly through your mouth while staying calm so your breathing becomes diaphragmatic.

If you tense up, you’ll end up chest-breathing and won’t inhale as much as you think, so be careful not to let your shoulders rise!

“GLAMOROUS SKY,” released as the theme song for the movie NANA.

The lyrics were written by Ai Yazawa, the original creator of NANA, and the composition/production was by HYDE—an all-star team that created a song that took the world by storm! The melody isn’t too high, and the range is comfortable for many female singers, so I imagine a lot of people choose to sing it.

However, the highest note, E5, appears at the end of the second chorus.

That’s a spot you’ll want to nail with style! Syllables in the ‘ma’ row tend to be more nasal and are harder to pronounce than others, so try projecting more strongly than you think you need to.

Make sure to place a clear accent in time with that part.

If the key feels difficult, it’s fine to start with falsetto.

As you get used to it, you’ll be able to produce a stronger falsetto, so brace your lower abdomen and add that accent!
