Yu Takahashi “Real-Time Singer-Songwriter” MV

Singer-songwriter Yu Takahashi, known for his catchy, emotionally impactful lyrics, has earned widespread popularity.

While his early work leaned toward orthodox rock, he’s recently been releasing many highly original tracks.

Among his catalog, Real-Time Singer-Songwriter is a standout recommendation.

Its vocal line is extremely catchy, and with a fair number of sustained notes, you can aim to rack up points with vibrato.

There’s a key change, so it has a bit of a quirk, but the vocal line itself is simple—definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

Yu Takahashi “An Empty Kitchen”

When we think of graduation, besides farewells and loneliness, I think there’s also anxiety and a vague sense of hope.

Hearing Yu Takahashi’s sincere way of singing about that hazy hope and the sadness of the moment makes me want to belt it out at karaoke.

It’s not just for graduation—since the song also suits times like moving house or even at a small live gig, it’s a great choice when you want to let your feelings out.

The song was written to celebrate the marriage of a staff member who had worked with Takahashi since before his debut, and its lyrics, told from the groom’s perspective, depict encounters between people, marriage, the birth of life, and happiness.

It’s a song that makes you reflect by comparing it with your own life.

Yu Takahashi “Wonderful Everyday”

As always, everyday happiness is probably scattered all around us—we just don’t notice it.

Yū Takahashi’s slightly husky, powerful voice makes this a song that gives you a push forward.

I want to feel the happiness of simply being alive, even in small things, and live with gratitude.
