Nogizaka46 'Navel Orange'

It’s said to be a song released as a single in March 2025, with a double center featuring Kazu Inoue and Aruno Nakanishi.

The overall vocal range is A3–C#5, and since it’s mostly sung around E4, it’s a comfortable key for women.

Listening to the track, it isn’t the type where you belt; it’s sung in a calm, conversational tone.

Because the song flows smoothly, adding a bit of dynamic contrast can help give it definition.

In particular, it’s important to pay attention to the openings of melodic phrases and the accented parts.

Also, where the chorus shifts to head voice on the higher notes, aim for a light delivery and be careful not to add unnecessary tension.

Nogizaka46 'Baretta' Short Ver.

The 7th single “Barrette,” whose music video—created under the theme “Uniforms are the strongest”—also became a hot topic.

Its ensemble that evokes Showa-era pop and its wistful melody line offer an arrangement that feels nostalgic yet fresh.

The key is low and the vocal range isn’t wide, but you should be mindful of singing tightly; otherwise, the original atmosphere won’t come through.

The melody flows at a relaxed pace with no rapid-fire phrasing, making it an easy number to try in karaoke.

Included on Nogizaka46’s single “Navel Orange,” released in March 2025, this track drew attention as 4th-generation member Yuna Shibata served as the under-center for the first time.

The lyrics poetically capture a page of youth and its wavering emotions in a way that’s easy to relate to.

It’s a song that especially resonates when you find yourself mulling over love.

Our GoodbyeNogizaka4648rank/position

This is “Bokutachi no Sayonara,” a track included on the 32nd single “Hito wa Yume wo Nido Miru,” released in 2023.

As the title suggests, it portrays a heartbreaking farewell, and the more you listen, the more it pierces your heart and brings you to tears.

Perhaps you, too, have had to say goodbye to someone precious while carrying feelings like these.

With its relatively modest vocal range, it’s easy to sing.
