Accompanist / Piano InstructorYuri
Accompanist pianist × piano instructor × web writer. I began piano lessons at age four and, inspired by my piano teacher, decided to pursue music. I went on to specialized music programs in high school and university, where I discovered the appeal of accompanying instrumentalists and singers. Currently, alongside teaching piano, I work mainly in my home region of Aichi as an accompanist for flute, voice, choir, and more. Through lessons, my students often introduce me to trending songs, and my hobby is trying anything on the piano—Japanese and Western pop, commercial jingles, and beyond. Since 2021, I’ve also been active as a web writer, covering music and a variety of other genres.

Cinderella BoySaucy Dog

Saucy Dog “Cinderella Boy” Music Video <5th Mini Album “Lazy Sunday” Released on 2021.8.25>

Cinderella Boy Saucy Dog

Saucy Dog’s “Cinderella Boy,” which rose to popularity through social media, is included on their 2021 mini-album Lazy Sunday.

With its relatable, refreshing melody and catchy, singable phrases, this track is as enjoyable as both nostalgic tunes and the latest hits.

Written from a woman’s perspective, the lyrics portray the painful, heartrending feelings toward a lover whose heart has drifted away—something many women in their thirties, with varied experiences in love, may find themselves empathizing with.

Although it’s a song by a male vocalist, it’s sung in a relatively high key, making it easy for women to sing as well.

Even if the dream endsTOMOO

TOMOO – Even After Waking From the Dream [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO]

Even when I wake from the dream, TOMOO

TOMOO is one of the singer-songwriters who represent the J-pop scene of the Reiwa era.

Since the hit release of “Ginger” in 2021, she has continued her remarkable rise, armed with outstanding songwriting skills and a voice you can recognize at first listen.

Many of her songs feature melodies that aren’t straightforward, so there may be plenty of people who want to sing TOMOO’s songs at karaoke but feel they might be difficult.

However, “Yume wa Sametemo” is relatively easy to sing and highly recommended.

It’s an infectious pop song with rhythmic piano tones and a dazzling brass section.

While the chorus does include some falsetto, the overall range is on the narrower side, so even those who aren’t confident with high notes should definitely give it a try.

Butterfly Kaela Kimura

In 2024, Kaela Kimura celebrates the 20th anniversary of her debut as a singer, and she continues to work with increasing energy while maintaining a unique position free from narrow categorization.

Heavily influenced by Western music, Kimura initially delivered punkish, catchy sounds with a cute flair—but the turning point in her career was Butterfly.

Released in 2009 as a digital-only single, the song was written for a close friend’s wedding and is filled with warmth and love.

Her performance of it on the NHK New Year’s Eve music show Kōhaku Uta Gassen helped make her a household name.

With a melody line that’s easy to relate to for listeners of all ages, it’s easy to sing and hugely popular at karaoke, making it a great pick if you’re aiming for a high score.

Since there are several higher notes in key spots, practice transitioning smoothly into falsetto so your voice doesn’t crack.

I want to be your lover — Mao Abe

A must-have heart-fluttering song that captures the pure feelings of unrequited love, “I Want to Be Your Lover.” It’s a track released in 2009 by singer-songwriter Mao Abe, known for her cool, powerful guitar-and-vocal style.

The song vividly portrays the bittersweet emotions of a crush, especially common during school days, and many listeners will surely find it nostalgic.

Your feelings naturally flow into it, so you can sing it with lots of emotion without even trying! When your emotions come through, your expressiveness shines and you’ll sing it well! Highly recommended!

Yorushika – Hebi (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

Snake Yorushika

Yorushika’s latest song, “Hebi” (“Snake”).

Since releasing “Aporia,” Yorushika has continued putting out lower-key tracks, and this new song is also arranged within a narrow range that’s easy for anyone to sing.

This work doesn’t feature the extremely low phrases that are characteristic of Yorushika.

Rather than being a “low” song, it feels more like a piece with a limited vocal range, and in keeping with that, the vocal line is crafted to be gently shaped with minimal rises and falls.

Because the instrumentation is somewhat subdued, be mindful of fade-outs and breathing when singing so the vocals don’t stick out awkwardly.

I love you more than anyone — Toko Furuuchi

Toko Furuuchi’s classic song “Dare Yori Suki Nanoni” (“Even Though I Love You More Than Anyone”).

For those in their late 30s, this track is likely to be deeply nostalgic.

While it’s categorized as J-pop, it features phrases here and there that are close to Black music—especially the neo-soul genre.

It’s characterized by a calm vocal line, typical of neo-soul, and a relatively narrow range, making it an easy song to sing for women with lower voices.

BALLADAyumi Hamasaki

Ayumi Hamasaki / BALLAD

BALLAD Ayumi Hamasaki

For women in their 30s, Ayumi Hamasaki is the quintessential artist of their generation.

However, if you have a lower voice, you might feel her songs are challenging because of their wide vocal range.

That’s why I recommend “BALLAD.” As the title suggests, it’s a classic ballad, but unusually for an Ayumi Hamasaki song, it’s sung within a relatively narrow range.

The tempo is also slow, giving you plenty of time to prepare for the next entrance.

It’s sure to get a great response when you sing it in front of people from the same generation, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
