To the Land of FireSayuri Ishikawa
For Sayuri Ishikawa, who hails from Kumamoto Prefecture, this is truly a classic local song that lets her triumphantly return home in glory! Released in 1978, “Hi no Kuni e” is a Kumamoto-themed song set against Mt.
Aso, and Ishikawa even performed it at that year’s Kohaku Uta Gassen.
It’s hard to believe she had just turned 20 at the time—her powerful vocals are truly compelling.
Of course, it’s also very popular for karaoke, but “Hi no Kuni e,” created by the golden duo of Yu Aku and Takashi Miki—icons of the Showa era—blends enka elements with a strong kayokyoku flavor, so you can approach it with a classic Showa pop sensibility.
Feel the so-called 8-beat swing (hachiroku) rhythm, and try singing with careful, crisp articulation of each syllable in the lyrics.
Fluttering Cherry BlossomSnow Man
In this song, which serves as the theme for the stage production “Takizawa Kabuki ZERO,” Snow Man delivers a dazzling performance accompanied by elegant, classical Japanese lyrics.
The show is renowned for its dreamlike staging and refined costumes, and the performance of dancing amid a flurry of cherry blossoms drew significant attention on social media.
It’s a powerful track for moments when you want to feel the arrival of spring or are about to take a new step forward.

I want to get drunk aloneIshihara Junko
Ishihara Junko’s heartbreaking masterpiece “Hitori Yoitakute” portrays the pain of lost love.
Like Hitomi Ishikawa’s “Amagi-goe,” it features a melody that is both wistful and passionate.
In contrast to the passionate melody, however, the vocal line in this piece is crafted to be very simple.
There are few kobushi (ornamental turns) and no drastic rises and falls in pitch.
With careful attention to pitch control, you should be able to aim for a high score.
For those who want to sing it even better, try adding a breathy quality to the K-row consonants to emphasize dynamics.
