Started working as a music writer as a side job while employed at a record shop, and have been contributing to music magazines and web media for over 15 years. Although Western music is my main field, I always strive to stay curious with the motto, “I like what I like.” I have experience playing in a band, where I was a bassist responsible for songwriting and composition. Instruments I’ve performed on include bass, guitar, and piano. I resumed piano lessons after turning 40 and have been continuing ever since!

AI – Happiness

Happiness AI

Released in 2011, this is the song that became a hot topic as a Coca-Cola commercial track! I’m sure many people listened to it a lot back then.

From the intro, the distinctly Christmas-like sound is striking! It’s mid-tempo with a strong beat, so while it’s laid-back, it definitely gets you grooving.

With rap-style sections and soulful, sustained high notes, the difficulty is a bit on the higher side, but it’s a song I hope you’ll sing without overthinking it and just have fun.

Entrust me with eternity, DEEN

This is the fourth single by the rock band DEEN, who gained popularity as part of the Being-kei movement and sparked a major boom in the 1990s after their debut song “Konomama Kimi Dake o Ubaisaritai” suddenly became a million-selling hit.

The track was used in an NTT Docomo “Pocket Bell” commercial, and its snow-evoking intro and heartrending melody really resonate.

The emotional arrangement, which also has a sense of grandeur, makes it a perfect choice to light up Christmas karaoke.

It’s an unfading classic that anyone who spent their youth in the 1990s—now in their 30s or 40s—should definitely sing.
