to you

It’s one of the signature songs by the Japanese band MONGOL800, but apparently it has never been released as a single.

After it was used in a commercial for Lion’s “TOP” detergent, the album MESSAGE, which includes the track, became a huge hit.

It’s a very upbeat, catchy rock song that anyone can easily sing along to and enjoy.

Don’t worry about singing it perfectly—just ride the groove, belt it out, and have fun! It might be great to have everyone there join in a big sing-along for the chorus!

JUDY AND MARY – Over Drive (MV)

This was JUDY AND MARY’s seventh single, released on June 19, 1995.

It was also used in several commercial tie-ins and as theme songs for TV programs.

Just listening to it makes your body naturally move to the rhythm and puts you in a really fun mood.

Even if you’re not confident about singing, I hope you’ll pick it casually at karaoke and let it lift your spirits.

However, many people may find the high notes a bit tough in the original key, so please be careful with the key settings.

Sing it cutely and have fun!

Fujifabric – Youth of Everything

Released in October 2007, “Wakamono no Subete” is one of the signature songs of Fujifabric from the period when the late Masahiko Shimura was a member, and it’s still fresh in our memory that it surpassed 100 million streams on the Oricon Weekly Streaming Ranking in 2024.

It’s a defining classic of the 2000s, and many people in their 30s today likely have it in their karaoke repertoire.

The song’s structure is essentially classic J-pop, with clear sections and no surprising high notes or long sustained tones, making it generally easy to sing.

If you sing with an awareness of the contrast between the restrained first half and the soaring chorus, it will sound even better!
