guidelinesUru
This is Uru’s fifth digital-only single, released in May 2023.
It was selected as the theme song for Fuji TV’s Monday 9 p.
m.
drama “Kazama Kojin – Kyojo 0.” Over a beautifully symphonic backing track, Uru’s emotionally rich vocals can be fully appreciated.
From the quiet singing at the beginning—where even breath noise seems to be used as part of the vocal expression—to the soaring vocals in the chorus, it’s a very challenging song to perform at karaoke.
Precisely because of that, if you can sing it brilliantly, you’ll be sure to become the center of attention.
Listen closely to Uru’s subtle breathing and give it a try.
So AddictiveReina Washio
A digital-only track by Reina Washio, former member of the Japanese female dance and vocal group E-girls, released in February 2023.
It was chosen as the theme song for the drama “Five Ways to Socially Destroy Your Husband.” While the song features a very striking jazzy arrangement and backing track, Washio’s wonderful vocals shine through and hold their own against the acoustic-only instrumentation.
With its complex melodic development, smooth shifts in vocal delivery to match, and the firm incorporation of a jazzy beat, it’s a very challenging song to sing.
Precisely because of that, if you can pull it off at karaoke, you’re sure to draw attention.
It’s a track I highly recommend to those confident in their singing.
Just be careful not to let your sense of the beat flatten out—doing so would ruin the effect—so pay close attention to that as you sing.
Living My Lifemilet
This is milet’s 10th digital-only single, released in July 2023.
It was chosen as the theme song for the Monday 10 PM drama “The Job-Changing Devil.” The slightly languid vibe makes it a very pleasant listen.
As for milet’s vocals here, I was impressed by how she maintains a solid sense of groove even within that languid feel, and by her deft switch in vocal production when singing the highly leaping phrases near the end of the B section.
If you can fully recreate this in karaoke, you’ll definitely draw attention.
First, make sure you clearly understand where the rests fall in the song; mastering how to use them is the key to making it sound really good.
ResonantiaAimer
The lead track from Aimer’s July 2023 album “Open α Door.” It’s an uptempo song brimming with drive, featuring standout performances by a jazzy piano and brass section.
Even against such a powerful backing track, Aimer’s vocal—emotional and soulful yet never overbearing, with a cool restraint—is truly remarkable.
As mentioned, the song is uptempo and very propulsive, but I feel it’s important to sing with a slightly laid-back feel against the beat.
Try keeping that in mind when you sing it.
loveUru
“Koi,” the third digital single released ahead of the 3rd album “Contrast,” is a number written by Yohei Hashiguchi of wacci.
Its lyrics are striking, portraying the resolve to move forward even while feeling the ache of heartbreak.
The bouncy shuffle beat and intricate melody can be challenging, but since the tempo is relaxed, take your time to check your pitch as you sing.
Sentimental yet pop in its ensemble, it’s a comfortable, highly recommended choice for your karaoke repertoire.
Shooting starLeo Ieiri
It’s Leo Ieiri’s ninth digital-only single, released in August 2023.
It’s an upbeat and exhilarating track, isn’t it? The powerful vocals she delivers in this song are truly worthy of praise.
The most important thing when singing this piece is, above all, to keep that powerful energy going throughout.
There’s a section that’s sung very fast starting around the end of the first chorus, so even in parts like that, be sure to articulate each word clearly so they don’t get jumbled.

ALL MY TRUE LOVESPEED
This is SPEED’s eighth single overall, released in October 1998.
It was chosen as the theme song for TBS’s broadcast of the 1998 Volleyball World Championship.
What’s crucial for singing this track, I believe, is delivering clear, soaring high notes.
That makes it very straightforward for anyone and a great song to showcase your vocal ability.
If you’re confident in your high range, definitely give it a try! When you sing, try to place the sound so it resonates toward the center of your upper palate inside your mouth.
Doing so should produce a voice rich in higher overtones, similar to the original recording, so please give it a go.
