Omoinotake is a three-piece band that made their major-label debut in 2021, captivating fans with songs that reflect their influences from Black music.
Their sixth digital-only single, Natsu no Maboroshi, features a nostalgic melody and ensemble that feel so satisfying.
The lyrics, which evoke a fleeting summer romance, may resonate with listeners and connect to each person’s own bittersweet memories.
It’s a poignant summer tune whose sentimental atmosphere—like being left behind by a passing season—stirs the heart.
Sparklers ~An August Promise~Sonar Pocket
Sonar Pocket’s “Sparklers ~August Promise~” is a love ballad themed around sparklers, a quintessential symbol of summer.
Set in summer on Enoshima, the lyrics depict a couple’s fleeting romance over one summer.
By likening the scenes to sparklers, the song further enhances its summery atmosphere.
Brimming with happiness, it’s recommended for a romantic karaoke outing with your partner.
The inclusion of a rap section also adds just the right amount of excitement.
To the Lightmiwa
Singer-songwriter miwa made her major debut in 2010 with her first single, “don’t cry anymore.” Her song “Hikari e” is a pop tune with a catchy melody that’s easy to sing at karaoke.
However, there’s a brief high note in the chorus, so if that part feels tough, you might want to lower the overall key.
Singing that high section in falsetto is also recommended.
It’s a danceable pop track, making it a perfect choice when you want to liven up the atmosphere.
Soda Pop LoveNaniwa Danshi
Soda Pop Love, included on the seven-member boy idol group Naniwa Danshi’s 2022 album 1st Love.
This pop tune spotlights the “cuteness of men” with a bright, catchy sound and lyrics brimming with masculine flair.
True to its name, it evokes a fizzy, soda-like sweet romance that’s sure to capture listeners’ hearts.
A relatively rare example of a cute summer song by male artists—why not take this chance to give it a listen?
Dream DeliveryNaniwa Danshi
The song chosen as the 2021 support anthem for the National High School Baseball Championship, a classic symbol of summer, was Naniwa Danshi’s “Yume Watashi.” It was included in the regular edition of their first single, “Ubu Love,” released in 2021, but when it was selected as the support song, it hadn’t yet been put on CD, making it the first support song by an artist who hadn’t debuted.
Since there are surely people who love high school baseball and watch it every year without fail, singing it at karaoke is sure to get everyone hyped!
sentimentalyuzu
Many of Yuzu’s songs evoke a fresh, summery vibe.
Released in 1999, the track “Sentimental” is also a great summer song to get the crowd going at karaoke.
While it paints scenes of midsummer in full swing, true to its title “Sentimental,” it also hints at emotional, nostalgic moments—reminiscent of an old romance, as if recalling some summer from the past.
With relatively few high notes, a simple melodic line, and a distinctive kayōkyoku-inspired feel, the chorus’s gradual build and the higher parts should be easy to hum along to.
mirageNogizaka46
If you’re looking for a Nogizaka46 karaoke song that feels like summer, why not try singing Nigemizu? The title “Nigemizu” refers to a mirage-like phenomenon that looks like steam shimmering over summer asphalt, and the lyrics are filled with summery words.
It also has a sense of reminiscing about a summer from long ago, with occasional hints of poignancy that feel very Nogizaka-like.
You might think it would be tough to sing at karaoke, but the vocal range isn’t very wide, so it’s a song you can handle without strain.
Whether you sing it or listen from the next seat, you’ll get swept up in the emo vibes.
