Former vocal coach specializing in Western musicRyo
Under the theme of “vocal skills that stand up on the world stage,” I have experience teaching as an online vocal coach specializing in Western music, and I usually listen to genres like nuevo flamenco, bolero, canzone, and R&B. In my teens, I questioned the idea that “foreign music equals English,” and started exploring songs from around the world. My commentary is characterized by a unique perspective shaped by listening to music of every genre, in every language, from every country. I mainly cover world music, so be sure to check it out!

to youMONGOL800

To You by MONGOL800

MONGOL800 to you

The classic song “Anata ni” by MONGOL800.

If you’ve lived in Japan, you’ve probably heard it at least once.

Its straightforward, pure, unclouded lyrics resonated with many people.

Interestingly, the song was never released as a single.

Even so, it’s this well-known—very much what you’d expect from MONGOL800.

It came out in 2001, yet it’s still loved by many listeners.

Because it doesn’t require dynamic phrasing techniques, it’s very easy to sing! Even high school students in today’s light music clubs often cover it.

It truly feels like a timeless masterpiece.

Marcy – Blueprint of the Future (Official Music Video)

Future Vision Marcy

Marcy is a three-piece rock band expanding their fan base with emotionally charged love songs woven with a translucent singing voice.

“Mirai-zu,” a track released in advance from their first album Memory, has garnered high praise not only in Japan but also from listeners overseas.

The melody is relaxed with no wide leaps in pitch, making it easy to sing, but the rhythm pattern in the A section is complex, so be careful not to lose the beat.

It’s a pop tune with a straightforward message of love that resonates in the heart and feels great to sing at karaoke.

FLOW – GO!!! – Pv – Naruto Opening 4

GO!!!FLOW

When you go to karaoke with friends, you want to get pumped up and have everyone get excited together, right? In times like that, I recommend FLOW’s “GO!!!”.

It was also used as the opening theme for the anime Naruto.

Its bright tone and bouncy rhythm will lift your spirits as you listen.

Try splitting the rap parts and singing it as a male duet.

If you can pull it off cleanly, it looks super cool.

For the final chorus, focus on the interplay between the lead and the rap as you sing.

GReeeeN – Dream

Yume GReeeeN

This is a song by GReeeeN, a rare music group whose members all work as dentists.

It was released in 2016 as their 26th single.

It’s a motivational song that expresses a positive spirit of moving toward your dreams.

With its slower tempo, it’s easy to sing while carefully listening to the melody.

It gained attention as the theme song for the “Caritas Shūkatsu” commercial.

Neguse. “Good Music” Official Music Video

Good music, Neguse.

Formed in Nagoya in 2020, Neguse is a four-piece rock band that’s been expanding their reach nationwide with down-to-earth music.

Good Music, the opening track of their 3rd mini-album Wonderland ni Aijou wo!, features an eye-catching guitar riff intro and a buoyant, rhyme-rich melody that feels great.

The melody is simple, but since it includes falsetto leaps and rapid-fire phrases, be careful not to slip off the melody or rhythm when singing.

With its positive message that blows away worries, it’s a perfect pop tune for high school boys at karaoke.
