Moon RabbitYuna Ito
With a light, poppy vibe, it starts building around the B-melody, leading into a chorus you can enjoy solo.
Naturally, the second verse comes in too, and I think you’ll enjoy it just as much.

Invincible HeartMai Kuraki
This is Mai Kuraki’s milestone 40th single, and it marks her 17th collaboration with Detective Conan.
It’s a danceable track with a strong beat, notable for the way both the sound and the lyrics intensify little by little as it builds toward the chorus.

Among her many hits and karaoke favorites, this one is especially popular.
Its lyrics, which portray the pain of heartbreak, have made it a classic breakup song beloved even by those who aren’t her fans.
MusicaBrandy War Chronicles
Formed in Osaka in 2022, Brandy Senki has been attracting attention on the indie scene.
Set to make their major-label debut in 2025, the song that propelled their name into the spotlight, “Musica,” is a garage rock-style track infused with elements of kayōkyoku, characterized by its bouncy triplet feel.
With a lean, no-frills arrangement unique to a trio, beginner bands covering the song should focus less on the individual technical difficulty of each instrument and more on tight, unforgiving ensemble playing—prioritize practicing in sync as a group as much as possible.
Since it calls for a completely different approach than straight 8-beat, the rhythm section may struggle at first, but by slowing down the tempo and practicing repeatedly, you’ll naturally develop a solid groove.
