PSYCHOFurui Riho
“PSYCHO,” released in August 2023 by Hokkaido-born singer-songwriter Furui Riho.
The lyrics feel like a secret confession of thoughts she wouldn’t usually say out loud, and although the song explores a slightly dark-side mood, its R&B flavor turns it into a danceable track that makes your body want to move.
The cool image that’s one of Furui Riho’s trademarks fits the song perfectly.
The music video is also cute, so be sure to watch it together.
Sukitchu no! (feat. Kapi)HONEY WORKS
HoneyWorks is a creator unit gaining attention through internet-centered activities such as TikTok and YouTube.
Their 2023 release “Sukicchu-no!” is a song that portrays a girl’s honest feelings of love.
Saori Hayami, who sang the viral SNS hit “Kawaikute Gomen,” serves as the vocalist, and as part of a collaboration project, Kapi also performs a vocal version.
Set to a rhythmic band arrangement, it’s a love song that strings together words of affection for one’s oshi (favorite idol/person).
Pride BrightJuice=Juice
“Pride Bright,” a 2023 track by Hello! Project group Juice=Juice.
Set to a cool, mature-sounding melody, it sings about a strong woman who never falls into love just because it’s convenient.
That assertive vibe also comes through in their sharp, powerful dance and the slightly grown-up atmosphere seen throughout.
It’s a recommended song for anyone with a strong will who doesn’t want a compromising romance or one that goes against their true feelings.
If only I could say I love youKERENMI & Atarayo
The digitally released track “Tada Suki to Ietara” was selected as the theme song for the live-action film Kokan Uso Nikki, which is based on a coming-of-age novel.
It’s a collaboration between KERENMI—the project led by music producer Koichi Tsutaya that’s been generating buzz—and Atarayo, a band known for the tagline “a band that grows by eating sadness.” With a simple ensemble and a hooky melody, it’s an undeniably catchy number.
The delicate lyrics, which overlap with the film’s story, evoke a sense of nostalgia.
A pop tune with gentle vocals and a refreshing arrangement that feels so good you’ll want to keep it on repeat.
Do not touchMISAMO
TWICE is a nine-member multinational girl group from South Korea.
MISAMO, the group’s first sub-unit, delivers an addictive track with “Do not touch,” whose charm lies in its cute yet cool vibe.
Among the highlights is Momo’s vocal tone as she trails the main melody in the chorus—it’s striking and sticks in your head after just one listen.
In the second verse, Mina’s vocals take the spotlight, giving the song a fresh feel, which is another fun touch.
Overall, the song really brings out the unique vocal qualities of each member, so be sure to listen closely for those differences!
Song of LoveMyuk
Myuk is the music project by Miyu Kumakawa, a singer-songwriter who even performed at FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL at the age of 18.
Released digitally on June 14, 2023, “Ai no Uta” is a high-velocity track grounded in dance music.
Its lyrics, which express a desire to follow one’s own path rather than compete with others, remind us of what truly matters amid the rush of everyday life.
It’s a stylish pop tune whose cool production and emotional vocals create an impactful contrast.
When You Were MineNissy (Takahiro Nishijima)
Takahiro Nishijima, who is active as an actor and singer under the name “Nissy.” One of his works drawing attention as his first English-language song is “When You Were Mine.” It’s an R&B-style dance track that sings about longing for a cherished person who has been lost.
From the consistently showcased high-tone vocals to the key change toward the end, there are plenty of highlights.
And don’t miss the sharp dance performance in the music video, either.
