It features a light rhythm and a catchy melody, and its humorous lyrics include self-deprecating elements.

It’s a recommended track for those who want a boost through laughter or to blow off everyday stress.

Take it to the Lucky Friday LionTMN
Speaking of Tetsuya Komuro and TM Network, they were the producer collective that represented Japan’s pop scene in the ’80s and ’90s.
In their early period, when their main focus was activities as a three-member group, they had tracks that were both experimental in sound and irresistibly upbeat.
At the time, the song’s construction—its arrangement and the way key changes were handled—drew high praise from critics not only in Japan but more broadly as well.
Geniuses, it seems, are already geniuses from the moment they debut.
Tesla is in a dream.TOKOTOKO
TOKOTOKO, a music creator who works as a Vocaloid producer under the name Nishizawa-san P, released “Tesla in a Dream” in 2017.
It racked up 1 million views on Nico Nico Douga, making it TOKOTOKO’s second song to hit a million.
The track was used as the theme song for the hero “Nikola Tesla” in the mobile game #Compass.
Its bright, energetic sound makes it a really fun listen, and it’s sure to get everyone hyped at karaoke!
TechnovaTOW TEI with Bebel Gilberto
This track features Bebel Gilberto from Brazil on vocals, and it’s such a wonderfully pleasant song.
When I first heard it, I was blown away—“Who on earth is Towa Tei? I don’t know much about him, but this is amazing!” It feels like you’re being taken to another dimension.
The music video is also really well made, a bit addictive, and I find myself watching it over and over.
TTTwice
The song considered the signature track of TWICE—now a world-class star group under JYP Entertainment that even makes crying children fall silent—is “TT.” It sparked a TWICE craze in Japan, and they appeared on the year-end NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen in both 2017 and 2018.
Three members—Mina, Sana, and Momo—are Japanese and are affectionately called “MISAMO.” If your crowd is mostly girls, definitely get hyped with “TT”! There are Japanese lyrics available, so it’s fine even if you don’t understand Korean.
The biggest dance highlight is, of course, doing the TT pose in the chorus.
As long as you can copy that part, you’re good!
Teardrops On My GuitarTaylor Swift
This song was written based on Taylor’s love during her school days.
You can feel her aching emotions as she experiences an unrequited love, and it makes your chest tighten.
In fact, she reunited with the guy who inspired the song a few years later, but it seems it was far too late for Taylor, and nothing romantic happened.
