Water lily flowerShonan no Kaze
Shonan no Kaze’s sixth single, which incorporates the Caribbean traditional music “SOCA,” is an uptempo track that evokes the summer seaside.
Riding on a catchy melody and a fast-paced beat, the four distinctive vocals instantly boost listeners’ excitement.

SAY KOU SHOWRobert Akiyama
Robert Akiyama’s masterpiece “SAY KOU SHOW.” It’s a relatively recent song, and with its lyrics packed full of dirty jokes, it seems to land better with people in their twenties and up than with teens.
Despite being a comic song, it features a groovy, smooth melody.
The vocal range is narrow and mostly sits in the lower to mid register, so most men can sing it in the original key without trouble.
It’s a song that’s more about expression than technique, so it’s best performed with exaggerated facial expressions in true Akiyama style.
That's good too.Kent on this side
Kocchinoken, a multi-creator whose household name skyrocketed with the 2024 hit song “Hai Yorokonde,” released a track in May 2025 titled “Sore mo Ii ne,” written specifically as the theme song for the children’s TV program The Wakey Show.
Because it was composed for kids, it’s extremely catchy and easy to remember, with a melody that even those who aren’t confident singers can enjoy singing.
For example, it would surely be a hit at family karaoke when a dad sings it for the children.
Of course, it’s also great for adults to sing together and feel like kids again!

Riding a BPM of 173, its bright, forward-looking message evokes a moving sensation, as if a rainbow were arcing across the listener’s heart.
Released in July 2000, the song captured many hearts as the theme for the TV drama “Daisuke Hanamura.” It reached No.
24 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and achieved total sales of 116,000 copies.
Perfect as BGM for highway or mountain-pass drives, it’s also ideal when you need a boost for a tired spirit.
