cherryaiko
Since it’s a cover by a popular singer, her distinctive expressive power really shines.
There aren’t many chances to hear aiko’s lower register, are there? She usually has a lot of songs that make use of her feminine high notes, so it doesn’t feel like the kind of song she would typically sing.
It feels like we’ve gotten to see a new side of aiko.

Many of aiko’s songs have a stylish feel, which can make them seem difficult to sing.
Her 12th single, “Chōchō Musubi,” released in 2003, is no exception.
It expresses a hidden affection for someone with whom she feels a mysterious connection, and its airy, fluttering melody—like a butterfly in flight—beautifully conveys the protagonist’s emotions.
Precisely because it’s so captivating, it can feel challenging to sing.
However, if you listen closely to the melody, you’ll find it’s actually very catchy, with many repeated phrases.
Songs with lots of repetition are easier to learn, so if you give it a try, you might find it surprisingly easy to sing!
Chosen Oneaimi
Aimi, who has Japanese roots, released her 3rd EP, “Chosen One,” in February 2022.
This track from the album “Chosen One” is an ambitious work created as a love letter to the new era of R&B.
Set against a backdrop of groovy hip-hop and R&B sounds, Aimi’s emotive vocals resonate deeply.
The lyrics capture everyday joy and gratitude, along with feelings for loved ones, and sing about the importance of bonds while overcoming hardships.
To celebrate the release, a live event was held in Ebisu, Tokyo, on April 2, 2022.
This song is recommended for those who feel worn out by daily life or want to reaffirm their connections with important people.
ChangeAo
Singer-songwriter ao, born in 2006, made her major debut with the 2021 release Tag.
Selected for Spotify’s RADAR: Early Noise 2022 as an artist leading the next generation, she gained attention primarily online.
With a smooth, Western-influenced vocal style, she skillfully performs a wide range of songs from pop to ballads.
Beyond singing, she handles guitar, piano, and DTM programming herself, and is a striking female singer known for performing with a subtly ennui expression.
Checkered one-piece dressback number
The piece “Checkered Dress” is striking for its bittersweet lyrics that tighten the chest.
Because it interweaves major and minor keys, you might get the impression it’s hard to sing, but since there are no abrupt jumps in pitch, it’s actually easier to sing than it sounds.
The only tricky part is the beginning of the B section.
With the vowel on “o,” you have to drop the pitch twice; this approaches an advanced vocal technique known as a “fake” (ad-lib), so it does require getting used to.

When it comes to tsundere songs that portray the sweet-and-sour relationship of lovers in love, “chocolate box” comes to mind.
Created in 2015 by the artist dezzy, who produces music using a wide range of Vocaloids, it sings of a cute love between a boy and a girl who can’t quite be honest with each other.
Its colorful synth tones create a soothing soundscape.
Featuring dazzling choral work by Kagamine Len and Kagamine Rin, it’s a quintessential tsundere track.
Why not swoon over the love story of two people who argue, make up, and deepen their bond?
