snow jamRin-ne

snow jam – Rin-ne (Official Music Video)

snow jam Rin sound

Rin-ne is a rapper who enjoys tremendous support among young people.

Since he’s active in the overground scene, he isn’t necessarily collecting props from hardcore heads, but he’s well known for his very high-level rapping skills.

Among his works, the track I especially recommend is “snow jam.” The rap flow is simple and there are many melodic verses, so even those not used to rapping will find it very easy to sing.

If you want to get closer to the original sound, try using autotune on the karaoke track.

aiko - 'Kabutomushi' music video

Beetle aiko

I think most people generally recognize rhinoceros beetles as a symbol of summer, but it seems Aiko wrote this song thinking of them as winter insects.

That’s why, even though it’s about a rhinoceros beetle, it’s a sweet ballad that suits winter more than summer.

The tempo is slow, so you can sing it while carefully checking the rhythm and pitch!

So, if you perform this song at a winter event, it’ll definitely steal the spotlight! The chorus is perfect for belting out with feeling.

Snow WingsRedballoon

redballoon – Snow Wings

Snow Wings Redballoon

Yuki no Tsubasa, well known as the ending theme for season 3 of the hugely popular anime Gintama.

It’s a track released as the major-label debut by the sibling duo redballoon, who announced their disbandment in 2018.

The chorus’s repeating melody is incredibly catchy, isn’t it? The fast-paced band sound, which evokes the sharp, icy winds of midwinter, is super cool! The song’s vocal range fits within a single octave, so it’s easy to sing without being too high or too low.

Even if the original key feels high, this is a song where you’re sure to find a comfortable key to sing in!

Naniwa Danshi – Happy Surprise [Music Video Dance ver.]

Happy Surprise Naniwa Danshi

Since their debut in 2021, the seven-member male idol group Naniwa Danshi has expanded their activities beyond music, with each member appearing on variety shows and more.

This is their third single.

Its refreshing sound and ensemble evoke the liveliness of winter and feel pleasant, don’t they? It’s catchy and easy to remember, and because the melody is relatively relaxed compared to the song’s tempo, it should be easy to sing even for those who aren’t very confident at karaoke.

If you feel too shy to sing alone, try singing it with someone.

It’s a winter song that will liven up year-end and New Year karaoke.
