I'll be by your side.Uru
“I’ll Be by Your Side” is the second digital single, selected as the theme song for the ABEMA original romance series We Got Married Season 4.
The track, written by singer-songwriter Yuuri—renowned for the smash hit “Dry Flower”—also drew attention for the high-profile collaboration.
Its clear, airy vocals over a lively shuffle beat feel wonderfully soothing.
While the overall vocal range isn’t very wide, the chorus features repeated leaps into falsetto, so focus on staying on pitch all the way through.
Also, be careful not to slip off the bouncy rhythm, as it can change the entire feel of the song.

Gentle RedMiho Fukuhara
This is Miho Fukuhara’s third single overall, released in November 2008.
It was used as the song for au’s “LISMO” commercial.
Miho Fukuhara possesses exceptionally strong vocal expressiveness, and I feel what further enhances her voice and that expressiveness is her use of falsetto—very soft yet never weak—as heard in the song’s chorus.
She switches between chest voice and falsetto extremely smoothly, and the way she gently lets the sound fall away at the end of phrases is something you’ll realize is quite difficult when you try it yourself.
Keep that in mind and give it a try in your practice.
Ballad of a SingerKazuyoshi Saito
This is a bittersweet yet warm song that begins with a simple acoustic guitar tone.
It conveys the weight carried by the words “I love you,” intertwining a moving expression of deep love with the meaning of singing as a performer—truly a masterpiece.
Released in November 1997, its heartfelt vocals and universal message captured many hearts despite its simple sound.
It was chosen as the theme song for the animated film “Lu Over the Wall,” and has been embraced by even more listeners across generations.
With Kazuyoshi Saito’s characteristically warm vocals and memorable melody, it’s easy to sing at karaoke and is recommended when you want to convey your feelings to someone special or sing with heartfelt emotion.
budKobukuro
One of Kobukuro’s signature songs, Tsubomi, was written by Kentarō Obuchi in memory of his late mother.
Released in 2007, the song was used as the theme for the drama Tokyo Tower: Mom and Me, and Sometimes Dad.
Not only is it well-known and easy to remember, but its gentle, flowing pace also makes it comfortable to sing.
Because the melody has a fairly wide range, you should pay some attention to the key.
If your voice is on the lower side, try lowering the key a bit; if you’re good with higher keys, singing in the original key might be best.
Sing it with your heart, thinking of someone dear to you.

A signature song by Kiroro that sings of deep love and gratitude to one’s mother over a gentle melody.
The clear, pure vocals and warm message woven by the two artists from Okinawa create a moving, jewel-like ballad.

With its relaxed tempo and relatively narrow vocal range, it’s easy to sing even at karaoke.
It’s the perfect song to perform with heartfelt feelings for your beloved family.
