The Pees - For now, it feels good here [Tokiwaza]

One hallmark of this band is that many of their songs have hilariously off-the-wall titles.

This track’s title is relatively tame, but the lyrics are wild and exhilarating.

If a woman who isn’t usually seen as the hype-maker sings this song, the gap moe effect is guaranteed.

It’s short, too, so even if it falls flat, the damage is minimal—another nice perk.

Kazuyoshi Nakamura - Cannonball

Nakamura Kazuyoshi’s 13th single, along with his following 14th single “Seventh Star,” is a signature track loved not only by fans.

If there’s a music-loving guy around, he’ll likely think, “Oh, you know this song?” and take an interest.

Choosing an artist that’s too obscure can feel like overdoing it, but with Nakamura, his songs sometimes rank between the 10s and 20s on the Oricon charts, so it’s just right.

Keeping the key in the original works well—it’s a comfortable range for most women.
