Nothing’s Carved In Stone　『Out of Control (LiveVer. 2013.04.17 Shibuya O-EAST）』

Even among Japanese music, the English lyrics make it easy to get into, and I bet many people are captivated by the incredibly high level of musicianship.

By the way, this song was used as the opening theme for the second season of the anime PSYCHO-PASS.

It would be awesome to play a perfect cover of this song at the after-party.

A track from the album “musiQ,” released in 2004 by the five-member group from Okinawa.

It’s also well known as a song they often perform at live shows.

Even people who don’t know the group may have heard the chorus in commercials.

Use this song to kick your summer into high gear.

Simply Red – The Right Thing (Official Video)

When you think of cool Western music, a lot of images come to mind, but songs with that quintessential Western-style rhythm are the best, right? If you’re looking for something rhythmic like that, I recommend Simply Red’s “Right Thing.” Its groovy rhythm and sinuous melody line really capture that Western vibe.

When you sing it at karaoke, try using your whole body to feel the rhythm.

It’s a catchy song with a gentle vibe.

It’s perfect for that playful mood right before you do something funny at a party or performance.

The lyrics are quirky, but it’s easy on the ears and sticks with you, so even people who aren’t confident in English can enjoy it.

The fun music video is also a must-see.

Messenger from Sunday – THE HIGH-LOWS (Full)

A signature classic by The High-Lows.

Some say this song was written about Hitoshi Matsumoto, and even people who aren’t into rock have probably heard it at least once.

I’ve even seen it performed at a wedding.

It’s simply a great song and fun to sing, so I highly recommend it for after-parties and the like.

Last NiteThe Strokes

Music with a Showa-retro vibe that will win over your boss’s heart too—the guitar paired with slightly off-semitone vocals creates a unique sense of time.

It’s an edgy, distinctive track that perfectly matches well-crafted performances and presentations.
