Imitation RainSixTONES
A grand musical world unfolds in SixTONES’ debut work, produced by YOSHIKI of X JAPAN.
Set to beautiful melodies and an energetic rock sound, it explores profound themes such as hope and reality, falsehood and truth, and life and death.
Released in January 2020 as a double A-side single with Snow Man, it marked the first simultaneous debut of two groups in Johnny’s history.
This song deeply resonates with many listeners as a companion for life’s crossroads and moments of emotional turbulence.
Soda Pop LoveNaniwa Danshi
A love song that’s as refreshing as a fizzy soda, packed with the charm of Naniwa Danshi.
It brilliantly likens the sparkling, heart-pounding feelings at the start of a romance to the effervescent pop of carbonation.
The catchy phrases that stick in your ears are another highlight.
This track is included on their first album, “1st Love,” released in July 2022.
Beloved since their Jr.
days, they’ve captivated countless fans.
It’s the perfect pick to amp up the mood on a summer drive or while hanging out with friends.
An ideal song for when you want to heighten that thrilling feeling of love.
Sakurastorm
Released in March 2005, this Arashi song features a refreshing melody that celebrates the arrival of spring and a powerful message that resonates with people taking their first steps forward.
The lyrics, set against a seasonally rich sound, are filled with dreams and hopes for the future, highlighted by the warm vocals that showcase the individuality of the five members.
It was also used in a TV commercial for Jonan Prep School and topped the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.
This track is perfect for those embarking on a new chapter or looking toward the future.
Frequently heard during springtime at graduations and entrance ceremonies, it has long been loved as an uplifting anthem that inspires positivity.
You are mine.Snow Man
This refreshing, classic pop tune was released as one of the double A-side tracks on Snow Man’s 11th single in July 2024.
Chosen as the theme song for the drama “Aoshima-kun wa Ijiwaru,” starring group member Shota Watanabe, the track was created around the theme of summer memories.
It’s a sweet-and-sour love song that warmly captures the spark of a romance that begins in a fleeting moment and the feelings for someone special.
With a breezy melody that builds with rising emotions and lyrics depicting bright, forward-looking feelings of love, it has a universal appeal that anyone can relate to.
While Snow Man often has songs that seem challenging to sing at karaoke, this one—though it features some falsetto high notes—has a straightforward melodic progression and is very easy to sing, so definitely give it a try.
SHE! HER! HER!Kis-my-ft2
If you want to hype things up with a cute, fun song, be sure to choose “SHE! HER! HER!” as well.
Released in 2012 as their third single, this track was used in Ezaki Glico’s Watering KissMint commercial, and its breath-like title phrase really leaves an impression.
It’s catchy and showcases Kis-My-Ft2’s sexy charm.
There are even lines that would make anyone swoon, making it a perfect song for fans to get excited about.
You’ll want to try the cool rap part that contrasts with the refreshing vibe, and it’s also fun for everyone to dance together to the choreography created by member Kento Senga!
FlowerKinKi Kids
It’s one of KinKi Kids’ signature songs that evokes the refreshing breeze of summer.
With its uplifting message and bright melody, just listening to it gives you energy.
The themes of hope and growth woven into the lyrics resonate with people of all generations.
Released in May 1999, the track was also used in ANA’s Okinawa campaign commercials and became a million-seller.
It’s the perfect song for taking a step toward a brighter future or sharing joy with someone special.
AsymmetryNaniwa Danshi
With the recent boom of K-POP and the like, I think it’s become more common for guys to sing idol songs even at karaoke with just men.
One track I recommend is Naniwa Danshi’s “Asymmetric.” Naniwa Danshi have always excelled at a more orthodox musical style, and this song in particular is crafted with an extremely catchy melody reminiscent of Arashi in the mid-Heisei era, so it’s sure to get everyone hyped.
The phrase right before the chorus is a bit distinctive, so be mindful of the sudden pitch changes there and prepare to handle them.
