DancerFukkun:)Tatsuki Fukuda
Primarily active in Tokyo, I have experience as a backup dancer for artists, a music video dancer, and a commercial dancer. I continue to work as a dancer while also engaging in article production. After discovering Michael Jackson in junior high school, I began dancing in my second year of high school. Since starting dance, in addition to the J-Pop and Japanese rock I had been listening to, I began exploring Western R&B, rap, alternative music, and other tracks commonly used for dance. In elementary school, I spent three years in a choir, and because I love singing, I often go to karaoke for fun. These days, I enjoy a wide range of music, from Japanese rock and rap to K-pop.

I play Electone, piano, and piano with vocals, and I upload performance videos to social media like YouTube! I’ve loved Disney music since I was little and have played many pieces on the Electone. I’ve been a fan of GLAY since junior high, and from there I started listening to all kinds of music, both Japanese and international. In Western music, I like Avril Lavigne♫

MetronomeKenshi Yonezu

Kenshi Yonezu – Metronome

Metronome Kenshi Yonezu

Metronome, included on the 3rd album Bremen.

The lyrics poignantly capture the ache of falling out of sync with someone important while still conveying an unchanging love—it really hits you in the heart, doesn’t it? The melody and tempo are relaxed, and there aren’t many big leaps in pitch, so it should be easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident at karaoke.

Since the chorus features falsetto, if you take that into account and set a key that suits you, you’ll be able to sing it comfortably.

It’s a sentimental masterpiece I definitely encourage you to try.

Love and Byo Netsu by Kenshi Yonezu

Koi to Byonetsu (Love and Fever), included on Kenshi Yonezu’s first album diorama, came after he gained popularity as the Vocaloid producer Hachi.

It’s a satisfying track with edgy guitar sounds and a dramatic ensemble.

Thanks to its simple, laid-back beat, it’s easy to keep the rhythm, and the overall key is low—including the chorus—so it should be comfortable to sing at karaoke.

With just the right touch of a Vocaloid-like feel in places, it’s also recommended for those who aren’t very used to singing.

Kenshi Yonezu – Peace Sign

Peace Sign Kenshi Yonezu

The seventh single “Peace Sign,” which was selected as the opening theme for the TV anime My Hero Academia.

Its fast-paced arrangement featuring a catchy guitar riff heightens the excitement for the series.

The melody and tempo are both quick, and the pitch moves around quite a bit, so you’ll need practice before performing it in front of others.

However, since the overall vocal range isn’t that wide, once you get the hang of it, it becomes a refreshing rock tune that will make karaoke even more fun.
