CANDYMr.Children
Mr.
Children’s classic song “CANDY,” included on the acclaimed 2005 album “I♡U.” This piece is characterized by a fairly wide vocal range of mid1 C# to hi B, with the highest chest note at hi A.
Although that note doesn’t appear often, it comes up once in each pre-modulation chorus, so before singing, be sure to focus on diaphragmatic breathing and conscious breath control.
If you’re confident in your upper range, it might be interesting to challenge yourself by singing the post-modulation hi B not in falsetto but with a mixed voice.
waxing; filling up; becoming full; growing (e.g., the moon growing fuller)Fujii Kaze
This song is notable for its gentle piano melody and tender vocals.
Released in March 2024, it was written by Fujii Kaze as the theme song for the film “April, Come She Will.” It is Fujii’s first love song, and its lyrics—centered on the essence of love and the changes in life—resonate deeply.
In the music video, Fujii himself plays both an elderly man and a young man, unfolding a story that portrays the life of one individual.
Delving into life’s impermanence and the true nature of love, the work teaches the importance of letting go of attachment.
The key isn’t excessively high, making it relatively easy to sing, so try singing it while checking your pitch!
To the futureKiroro
This song is captivating for its warm vocals and moving melody.
Released in June 1998 as Kiroro’s second single, it was written in junior high school as an expression of gratitude to the singer’s mother.
The lyrics, which portray a parent’s love for their child and hope for the future, are distinctive, and the song is widely cherished as a graduation song and at weddings.
It is also a popular piece often featured in middle and high school music classes.
Centered on themes of the parent–child bond, growth, and the pursuit of dreams, it’s a slow-tempo, easy-to-sing track—well-loved especially as a graduation song.
MPRINCESS PRINCESS
A bittersweet song has been born, one that pours the pain of heartbreak into a gentle melody.
With a relaxed tempo and no complex rhythms or dramatic pitch changes, it’s a great choice even for first-time singers.
Released in 1988, this track remains a beloved classic that represents PRINCESS PRINCESS.
It’s also a karaoke staple, so why not give it a try? It’s perfect for women, and if you lower the key a bit, it becomes easier for men to sing too.
scattered; in pieces; all over the placeGen Hoshino
A song by Gen Hoshino featuring the warmth of an acoustic guitar and his gentle vocals.
Its message—affirming individual differences while seeking coexistence—really resonates.
Included on the album “Baka no Uta,” released in June 2010, it drew attention as Hoshino’s solo debut.
It’s a popular track that is sometimes performed live.
Recommended for those who value diversity or are struggling with relationships.
At the 2024 Kōhaku Uta Gassen, he performed it with partially revised lyrics, moving viewers deeply.
The melody flows unhurriedly, the range isn’t too high, and it’s an easy song to sing.
Capsuleaiko
Compared to aiko’s other songs, “Capsule” is characterized by a melody that doesn’t move much, making it a song where you can follow the tune straightforwardly.
It seems that aiko herself has commented to that effect.
As you listen, the sections sung softly in head voice at the beginning gradually shift to an emotional chest voice toward the latter half.
In the first half, it might be good to relax and sing gently and lightly.
Also, the very end of this song features a long sustained note.
It’s the moment when the emotion is at its peak, so it’s a part I’d love for you to sing comfortably in chest voice.
The sustained vowel is “o.” Since “o” makes it easy to open the throat and pronounce, there shouldn’t be any problem as long as you take a good breath and prepare before you start singing.
Send the breath flying far into the distance!

escapadeimase
It’s a slow-tempo yet catchy imase track.
The theme centers on escaping reality and hoping for a new future, depicting a resolve to set out for a new place with a loved one while carrying the burdens of the past.
Released in January 2022 as the second digital single, it’s also included on the album “Bonsai.” The song blends R&B and pop, featuring a distinctive vocal style.
Although it’s slow and has a catchy melody, if you clearly switch between falsetto and chest voice in the chorus, I don’t think it’s difficult to sing.
