WHITE BREATHT.M.Revolution
Speaking of Takanori Nishikawa of T.
M.
Revolution, the Inazuma Rock Fes held every year from summer to fall is famous, isn’t it? One of the signature songs from Nishikawa’s solo project T.
M.
Revolution is WHITE BREATH.
Its lyrics are packed with romantic lines you’ll want to use at least once, like “It’s such a cold winter—forget the logic, let’s just love each other.” It’s a popular track, so try singing it early in your set.
He’s also well known for belting it out against a headwind—so much so that it’s even become a running joke on variety shows.
If you perform it at karaoke, bringing a fan as a gag to get some laughs might be a great idea!
everlasting snowAimer
When we think of snow, we tend to feel it’s cold and lonely, but the song “everlasting snow” transforms that snow into something warm.
On bitterly cold winter days or Christmas spent alone, it’s easy to feel a little blue.
Even so, the city’s glittering illuminations and the snow that brings back fond memories can offer moments of gentle relief.
This song captures those tender moments.
It’s also a great choice as a Christmas song to sing at karaoke.
Love Song in DecemberGACKT
Speaking of GACKT’s December songs, it has to be this one! He doesn’t have as many chances to perform on TV these days, but back when he often appeared on television, he used to sing this a lot in winter, didn’t he? It’s a rock ballad featuring Christmassy sleigh bells and beautiful strings, and it showcases GACKT’s signature allure—from his sultry low notes to his soaring highs.
The range mostly overlaps with that of an average male voice, so depending on the person, the high or low parts might be challenging, but with key adjustments it should generally become easier to sing.
Highly recommended.
Wonderful HolidayMariya Takeuchi
It’s the classic song where everyone says, “You know it as soon as the chorus starts!”—‘Sutekina Holiday.
’ No wonder: every Christmas season, this song always plays in the KFC commercials.
Many people have probably heard it inside KFC stores, too.
The track was written specifically as a Kentucky Fried Chicken commercial song and was released in 2001 as the B-side to Mariya Takeuchi’s single ‘Nostalgia.
’ Beloved across generations, it’s a perfect pick for a family Christmas karaoke party.
Tonight is a Hearty PartyJuice=Juice
This work, a cover of Mariya Takeuchi’s classic song, is brimming with fun and warmth.
It portrays how people forget their everyday worries and gain energy for tomorrow through parties with friends.
It’s included on a single set for release in February 2025 and has also been chosen as a TV program theme.
When it was first performed at the Nippon Budokan in November 2024, the Christmas party–themed production reportedly brought the house down.
It’s the perfect track for when you want to enjoy time with friends or when you need a boost of energy.
