I’M YOUR IDOLNadeshiko on a high peak

[MV] I'M YOUR IDOL / Takane no Nadeshiko [HoneyWorks]

Formed under the production of HoneyWorks, Takane no Nadeshiko is an idol group whose charm lies in a classic, traditional idol image—distinct from the contemporary K-pop-inspired idol aesthetic.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is “I’M YOUR IDOL.” Unlike today’s scene, which is centered on Black music and K-pop, this track features a simple vocal line with relatively little dynamic fluctuation throughout.

The vocal range isn’t very wide either, making it a song that teenage girls should be able to sing without any trouble.

Hare and Sea TurtleDAZBEE

DAZBEE | ‘Hare and Sea Turtle (Parallel World)’ M/V

DAZBEE’s unique musicality and creativity shine in the new single “Wild Hare and Sea Turtle,” released digitally on February 21, 2024.

The song skillfully expresses the bittersweet emotions of romance through the metaphors of a “wild hare” and a “sea turtle.” Among DAZBEE’s works, this piece is particularly ennui-tinged and easy to sing.

Because there’s little change in vocal range from the verse to the pre-chorus and chorus, it should be very singable even for those who struggle with high notes.

If you want to make it sound even better, try focusing on singing with a whisper voice that mixes breath into your tone.

MermaidYuka

YU-KA – Mermaid (Official Music Video)

Singer-songwriter Yuka, who has gained popularity for her stylish sound influenced by Western music.

While she often centers her music on alternative rock, some tracks showcase styles like R&B and slow jam.

Her new song “Mermaid” is a work strongly infused with R&B elements.

Even though it’s rooted in R&B, there’s virtually no use of advanced techniques like vocal riffs and runs.

In addition, the vocal range is narrow and there are few long tones, making it manageable even for those who aren’t confident singers.

I fall in love with you againKana Nishino

Kana Nishino “Falling in Love with You Again” MV Full

Kana Nishino’s new song “Mata Kimi ni Koi o Suru” (Fall in Love with You Again).

People in their teens might not be too familiar with her, but for those in their late twenties, when you think of a diva, Kana Nishino likely comes to mind.

She’s recently returned to the scene, and this track takes her classic style a step further, delivering a hip-hop-flavored song that anyone can sing along to.

Of course, her signature lyrics about a woman’s feelings in love are very much alive.

She’s drawing attention from teenage girls again too, so be sure to try it at karaoke.

NerveBiS

nerve (FiNAL ver.)

This is a 2011 work by BiS, a group formed in 2010 that has gone through breakups and restarts; as of 2024, they are active with their third generation of members.

It’s an iconic BiS song that has continued to be performed from the earliest days to the present despite lineup changes.

The lyrics are by Yoji Kubota, who writes extensively for idol acts of all kinds, and they memorably capture a girl’s frustration with a boy who can’t read her feelings.

It’s also a staple cover for so-called live idols, so even if you don’t know the original, many people may have heard it at live houses across Japan.

Because the vocal delivery shifts throughout the song—somewhat spoken in the A section, rapid-fire in the B section, and using a broad, soaring melody in the chorus—it may feel a bit challenging.

On the other hand, the key isn’t very high and the structure is simple, making it easy to learn.

The chorus features long, sustained notes, so be sure to support them firmly with your core to keep the pitch steady.

Also, in the fast B section, stopping cleanly is just as important as being able to sing the phrases; cutting off sharply at the end of each phrase sounds cool.

Route246Nogizaka46

Nogizaka46 “Route 246”

This is a 2020 song by Nogizaka46.

It drew some attention because producer Yasushi Akimoto asked Tetsuya Komuro—who was effectively retired at the time—to work on it.

Members who have long supported the “Komuro sound” also took part in the arrangement, resulting in a track that’s full-on 1990s Komuro style.

As the article’s title suggests, it’s an easy song to sing.

The melody doesn’t have big rises and falls, and there aren’t any tricky vocal runs.

The key is set relatively low for the trends around 2020, making it easy for people of various ranges and voice types to sing.

If anything, some people might find it a bit hard to catch the notes in the pre-chorus.

But if you try singing it a few times, you’ll get the hang of its quirks.

It also incorporates plenty of key changes characteristic of Komuro’s music, but if you’re just focused on singing, they shouldn’t bother you at all.

Get a big group together and have fun with it!
