Hi! Mckee by Okazaki Taiiku.

This song is a collaboration with the well-known oil-based marker “Mackee.” While it’s still a comic song, its musical style is surprisingly put together as bona fide funk.

It’s groovy, yet very easy to keep the rhythm, and there aren’t many long sustained notes, so you don’t have to worry about going off pitch.

It might be a bit hard to rack up bonus points, but there aren’t any sudden jumps in pitch, so give it a try.

If you’re wondering where the “bashful” element could possibly be in this high-velocity rock tune, just listen until the chorus.

It’s a track by Kyoto–Uji–born singer-songwriter Okazaki Taiiku, included on his second album XXL, released in 2017.

The impact will be huge, especially for first-time listeners.

You’ll definitely be able to surprise your karaoke companions.

So practice well so you can sing it without getting embarrassed when the time comes! Might as well learn the choreography, too.

Knock OutOkazaki Taiiku5rank/position

Okazaki Taiiku “Knock Out” Music Video

When someone asks, “What kind of person is the artist Taiiku Okazaki?” it’s hard to answer, isn’t it? He’s got plenty of earnest, moving songs, but also comedy-style novelty tracks like a stand-up comedian, and even songs packed with magic-trick-like gimmicks—if anyone’s multi-talented, it’s him! Of course, Knock Out is another standout track.

A typical message song fixes the artist’s intent—like “give love another chance” or “be brave”—but this one kind of mumbles, “I don’t know what it is, but I want to say something,” without spelling it out.

Finding that ambiguity fun is so very Taiiku.

If you haven’t heard it yet, you should definitely give it a listen.

Space and NaganoOkazaki Taiiku6rank/position

Perform it as a skit at a year-end or New Year’s party, and the room is sure to be filled with laughter.

If you’re good at guitar, why not give it a try?
