Introducing songs starting with “Ta” from popular J-POP! (111–120)
Solar System DiscoNayutan Alien
A Vocaloid song that makes you want to throw your fist in the air and sing along! NayutalieN’s “Solar System Disco” was released in 2017.
It’s an irresistibly catchy dance-rock-style love song.
The melody is so catchy that once you hear it, it won’t leave your head.
In the final key change, all the chords go up by a half step, so there are quite a lot of chords to memorize.
But that only happens if you try to play it with an “easy arrangement using a capo.” If you learn it with barre chords from the start, even when it modulates, only your fret positions change—the actual finger shapes you use to press the strings stay the same.
This is the perfect chance to master barre chords!
