I love youuu!HoneyWorks feat. Chuutan
When it comes to character songs sung by Chu-tan, a character from HoneyWorks’ wildly popular creator unit project “Confession Executive Committee,” many people might think of “Kawaikute Gomen,” which exploded in popularity and became a meme.
But “Sukicchu no!” is also a beloved track by Chu-tan.
Like “Kawaikute Gomen,” it’s performed by voice actress Saori Hayami, and while it’s a cute pop song, its lyrics weave in the serious side of the social media era, offering a deeper exploration of Chu-tan’s character—something that leaves a strong impression.
The irresistibly catchy chorus is perfect for social media and guaranteed to hype up a karaoke session, and the melody line is very singable.
Still, be sure to sing it while empathizing with the protagonist’s feelings.
Osaka LoverDREAMS COME TRUE
It’s a song by DREAMS COME TRUE about a long-distance relationship with a boyfriend in Osaka, expressing a woman’s feelings.
It’s a popular track that has been covered by other artists.
I also think it’s cute when a woman sings the Kansai-dialect lyrics at karaoke.
The Kansai intonation is subtle, so please pay close attention to it.
