Water lily flowerShonan no Kaze
This is a track that embodies the heat of summer and the passion of youth.
It features an impressive, innovative sound that blends Shonan no Kaze’s signature reggae and hip-hop with Caribbean SOCA.
The lyrics convey the strength to overcome tears and move forward, as well as the joy of living freely, inspiring courage in listeners.
Released in June 2007, it was also used as the theme for the commercial of the film “Shonan no Kaze 3D LIVE Gundan Densetsu 2010.” It’s a perfect pick for getting the crowd going at karaoke or when you need a boost of energy.
ultra soulB’z
This is a hard rock number by B’z that powerfully expresses a soul’s cry to keep pushing the limits.
The lyrics, which portray facing oneself and chasing dreams, brilliantly capture the doubts and inner struggles we all encounter at life’s crossroads.
Takahiro Matsumoto’s dynamic guitar and Koshi Inaba’s soaring vocals blend perfectly, injecting a strong surge of energy into the listener’s heart.
Released in March 2001, it was chosen as the official theme song for the FINA World Swimming Championships in Fukuoka that same year.
Also included on the album “GREEN” and performed on NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen, this track gives a boost to anyone striving in their work or life.
It’s the perfect cheer song to belt out with close friends when you get together.
My Past Life, Many Lifetimes AgoRADWIMPS
A song by RADWIMPS, released in July 2016.
It was created as an insert song for director Makoto Shinkai’s film “Your Name.” It’s an up-tempo, very catchy rock number, so don’t overthink it—just sing and have fun! The chorus and other parts pack in the lyrics rapidly, but try to articulate each word clearly so the words don’t blur together.
Especially in the sections where the title is sung, if you emphasize the initial consonant of the first sound “ze,” you can bring out an even stronger impact.
When I turn around...Janne Da Arc
For those in their thirties, when it comes to spot-on visual kei rock bands, isn’t Janne Da Arc the first that comes to mind? They have many great songs, but the one I especially recommend is “If You Look Back…”.
Among their tracks, this one is arranged with an especially gentle melody.
It features somewhat longer sustained notes, but doesn’t rely heavily on vibrato, so I think it’s relatively easy to sing.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
Banzai ~ So glad I loved you ~Ulfuls
This was Ulfuls’ 10th single, released in February 1996.
It was chosen as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Victory Goddess” and sold over 500,000 copies.
The vocal melody is straightforward, and the tempo is mid-range, making it a very easy song to sing.
Just like Tortoise Matsumoto, who sings it, belt it out and enjoy the act of singing itself.
Rather than overthinking how to sing it well, it’s best to perform it naturally without worrying about the details.
swallowtail butterflyPorno Graffitti
This is Porno Graffitti’s sixth single, released in June 2001.
It’s an appealing song with a slightly Latin-style rhythm and melody.
The melody is very simple and easy to remember, so even those who aren’t confident singers should be fine using it as a karaoke pick.
Many people may feel the original key is “too high!!,” so please be careful when choosing the key.
Other than that, as long as you can sing it without dragging behind the Latin-style side-to-side groove that characterizes this song, you should be good to go.
Lovers AgainEXILE
EXILE’s 22nd single, released in January 2007.
When it comes to EXILE, their vocal ability is widely praised, and since this song is a slow ballad, many of you might be thinking, “I’m not good at singing—can I really pull this off?” Rest assured.
It’s true that the original key is high and might be a bit tough for the average male vocalist, but you’ll be fine if you adjust the key in karaoke.
The phrasing has a bit of a unique touch, so trying to replicate it perfectly can be tricky, but the melody itself is very straightforward and simple.
If you sing it plainly and cleanly—like holding the sustained notes steadily—even those who aren’t confident singers should be able to manage it.
Just be careful not to rush the rhythm.
