Popular Japanese songs among women in their 20s: A collection of classics that are great to listen to and great to sing (1–10)
wavy flowAimer
This is a song released by Aimer in 2022, which was also chosen as the 5th anniversary theme song for the mobile game Azur Lane.
It starts with an intro whose tone could make you feel uneasy, and features a dark yet majestic accompaniment that feels like the determination of someone clawing their way up from rock bottom in a dystopian world.
It pairs perfectly with Aimer’s uniquely husky, sorrow-tinged high notes, making it a highly captivating track.
Listening to it makes me feel like a warrior fighting in the world of Azur Lane!
First love is cryingAimyon
This song centers on first love by Aimyon, an artist who has carved out a solid place with uniquely worded love songs and is especially popular among young women.
Released in 2022, it was chosen as the theme song for the Monday 10 p.
m.
drama “Koi Nante, Honki de Yatte Dousuru no?” (Why Would You Do Love Seriously?).
The lyrics portray the agony of being unable to let go of memories from the past, especially one’s first love.
A notable feature is the extensive use of personification, beginning with the title.
The tempo is relatively slow and the vocal range fairly narrow, making it a good karaoke choice for anyone, regardless of gender, who finds high notes challenging.
lensLila Ikuta
Rira Ikuta, who drew attention for her powerful and beautiful voice as part of the music duo YOASOBI, is of course also active as a solo artist! Her song “Lens” is a ballad that was chosen as the theme song for the drama “Is Sustainable Love Possible? ~A March for the Father and Daughter’s Marriage~.” The conflicting emotions of “joy” and “sadness” that arise when thinking of someone precious are sung with Ikuta’s delicate vocals, making it a song that resonates to the point of aching.
With its relaxed tempo, it’s also recommended for karaoke if you’re confident with high notes!
festivalFujii Kaze
Fujii Kaze’s “Matsuri” grabs you from the start with its piano and flute melodies.
The song blends a sacred, traditional Japanese atmosphere with R&B, and the lyrics—marked by Kaze’s signature modern, casual phrasing—mesh perfectly to create a unique world.
While evocatively capturing a Japanese mood, the lyrics also weave in satire of today’s competitive society and ideas of reincarnation.
It’s a track that showcases Kaze’s compositional skill so brilliantly that you almost can’t explain why this unlikely combination feels so right.
HabitSEKAI NO OWARI
Released in 2022, this song marked SEKAI NO OWARI’s first No.
1 on the Billboard charts in seven years.
In addition to its fast tempo, the lyrics have a conversational feel.
The song rejects the all-too-common habit of casually labeling and categorizing people, giving it a satirical edge.
Also noteworthy is the “Habit Dance,” choreographed by Powerpuff Boys.
In particular, the start of the second verse—where the biting social satire in the lyrics pairs with a comical move that involves rotating the knees while sidestepping—sparked buzz, leading to a boom on Instagram and TikTok as many users posted their own dance videos.
New My NormalMrs. GREEN APPLE
After a 1 year and 8 month hiatus, Mrs.
GREEN APPLE made a fresh start.
This song feels like their new theme song.
Reading the lyrics, you can sense that they overcame the negative experiences and inner conflicts they likely faced, and that they’re poised to shine again.
Omori’s overwhelming vocal power and soaring high notes are, of course, fully intact.
This song, which sings of the anguish, suffering, and hope that only those who push forward can know, will stand by your side and cheer you on.
EdisonWednesday Campanella
Wednesday Campanella’s “Edison,” which gained buzz thanks to dance videos on TikTok, was released for streaming in 2022 alongside “Maneki Neko.” The lyrics paint a unique picture that makes you imagine what Edison might be like if he lived today.
Dancing is all the rage on TikTok, but even in the modern era, Edison would probably prioritize invention above dancing or singing.
For busy women in their 20s, why not take a breather and give it a listen—maybe even try a little dance while you’re at it?
