On My MindMrs. GREEN APPLE

On My Mind

This song was released in April 2018 and is the opening theme for the Nippon TV anime “Nana Maru San Batsu” (Fastest Finger First).

The tempo is a relatively quick 186, but the repeated phrases in the chorus give it a very satisfying feel.

The A and B sections are sung firmly in chest voice, and when the chorus hits, the energy explodes, so it’s best to give a strong accent on the very first note! It’s a band-style track, so you’ll want to sing while really listening to the drums and guitar in the background to lock in the rhythm.

Also, after the second chorus, the C section starts in falsetto—before you make sound, try lifting your facial muscles to prepare, then start singing.

Doing so will make your voice more stable and help with pitch accuracy.

For the chest voice and high notes that follow, keep those facial muscles lifted and project your voice as if aiming far away.

You’ll find it becomes much smoother to sing!

Seeds of joyMrs. GREEN APPLE

Seeds of Delight

A medium-tempo song with a gentle vibe, “Seeds of Joy.” This track is included on the best-of album “10th Anniversary Best Album,” released on July 8, 2025.

The vocal range isn’t too wide, and vocalist Omori hardly uses falsetto, so it’s a song that men can sing comfortably without switching to falsetto.

Since the song feels gentle overall, use soft breath when you sing.

For the A and B sections, it’s less about “projecting your voice” and more about “letting the breath flow.” In the chorus, it suddenly becomes more emotional, so project your voice forward without straining your throat.

Imagine singing in a spacious place and let your voice out comfortably.

Nogizaka46’s “Immoral Summer,” which became available for streaming starting in July 2025.

Since the lyrics are packed with summery words, it might be a good idea to start learning it now for the coming season! Rather than a “cute, idol-like” tune, it has a slightly cool vibe that makes you want to sing along.

The overall range leans more toward the mid to low register than high notes, so it’s a song you can comfortably sing in your natural voice.

That said, one thing to watch out for when singing mid–low songs is that if you let it just flow without intention, it can lose dynamics and end up sounding dull.

Keep your facial muscles lifted, aim to resonate around the glabella area, and be mindful of accenting the first beat of each measure! Since it’s a group song, there’s hardly any rest when you sing it solo, but it’s totally fine to prioritize the parts you want to sing.

There’s probably choreography too, so try incorporating it and have fun!

Kaiju no Hanabuta (Monster's Flower Song)Vaundy

Vaundy’s hugely popular song “Kaijuu no Hanauta” is one my students—regardless of gender—have practiced many times in vocal lessons! It’s a bit high for male singers, but it seems quite comfortable for female singers.

It’s definitely a song worth knowing.

The overall range spans two octaves from D3 to D5, and the pitch climbs significantly toward the latter half.

There are plenty of falsetto parts throughout, so those who are good with falsetto should be able to sing it smoothly.

Just be careful not to forget to breathe, since there are almost no breaks.

The sustained long note in the last chorus feels great, and there are chorus sections as well, making it perfect for getting everyone hyped!

Sukima Switch’s classic song “Kanade” gets as high as A#4 in the latter half, so it can seem challenging, but the first half stays within a low–mid range of D3 to A#4, making it a great pick for lower-voiced male singers.

It’s a song almost everyone knows, so it’s definitely worth adding to your repertoire! Until you get used to the chorus range, it’s fine to lower the key a bit.

It’s absolutely better to sing in a key that’s comfortable for you rather than forcing the original key, so try finding the key that suits your voice.

The key is to sing gently!

Blooming at nightHoshimachi Suisei

Blooming at night

As of June 2025, the average score on JOYSOUND karaoke scoring seems to be around 90.

35, giving the impression that the average is on the higher side.

Indeed, among Hoshimachi Suisei’s songs, this one doesn’t have an especially high range and is fairly compact, so it’s easier to hit the pitches compared to her other tracks.

Also, the rhythm is very easy to grasp, so once you learn it, it’s a song that’s easy to sing! If you sing while clearly keeping a 4/4 beat, your timing will match more easily and you’ll line up with the pitch bar perfectly.

Once you’re comfortable, it might be a good idea to add techniques like vibrato!

What We Got ~A Miracle Is You~King&Prince

King & Prince “What We Got ~A Miracle With You~” MV Short Clip

King & Prince’s “What We Got ~Kiseki wa Kimi to~” with Mickey Mouse dancing is so cute, isn’t it? It seems this song is part of a project for Mickey’s 100th anniversary! Listening to the whole track, the actual harmonies only appear midway through the B-melody, while the chorus is in unison.

The chorus repeats the same phrase and is very easy to follow, so I think it’s great to add your own harmonies! Singing in unison is fun, but adding harmonies here and there changes the vibe in a fun way.

For the record, I would sing an upper harmony on the parts of the chorus that are in Japanese! Try different approaches and find what feels right for you!
