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♫

[Lyrics_Subbed] Alice – Kenshi Yonezu

Alice Kenshi Yonezu

A well-known example featuring Daiki Tsuneta of King Gnu is “爱丽丝.” This title is Chinese for “Alice,” referring to Alice from “Alice in Wonderland,” and the song depicts a woman who has wandered into a mysterious world.

The track is characterized by a rock-infused sound and raw, rough-edged vocals.

There are parts that call for a shouting style, so keep that in mind when you sing.

At the same time, it’s also a song that makes it easy to use vibrato, making it a great choice when you want to aim for a high score.

Kenshi Yonezu – POP SONG / Kenshi Yonezu

POP SONG Kenshi Yonezu

POP SONG is a track Kenshi Yonezu wrote specifically for a PlayStation commercial.

As the title suggests, it’s a cheerful number that conveys the importance of enjoying everyday life.

At the same time, the sound has a unique, folk-music-like quality, so it’s neither overly intense nor too fast in tempo.

The instrumental break is relatively long, allowing you to rest your voice before tackling the latter half, which also makes it an easy song to sing.

[Lyrics_Subbed] I Wish I Could Be a Bird – Kenshi Yonezu

Kenshi Yonezu, who wants to become a bird or something

It would be really cool to sing a song that only a true fan would choose, right? With that in mind, I’d like to introduce “Even If I Could Become a Bird.” It’s a track included on the second single “MAD HEAD LOVE/Poppin’ Apathy,” and it wasn’t released as a standalone single.

Still, it’s highly popular among fans.

The lyrics convey love from a first-person perspective, which also makes it appealing because it’s easy to put your emotions into it when singing.

Kenshi Yonezu – Flowerwall

Kenshi Yonezu - Flowerwall

The 3rd single “Flowerwall,” which was featured as the theme song for Nikon’s D5500 commercial.

After Keisuke Kuwata of Southern All Stars praised it on his radio show, many people may have discovered Kenshi Yonezu’s appeal and talent through this song.

As a Kenshi Yonezu track, it contains many sections with sustained high notes, and the melody and rhythm are complex, but that makes it all the more satisfying if you can sing it well.

If the key just doesn’t fit your range, try adjusting it to a setting that suits you and give it a go.

Grim ReaperKenshi Yonezu

Kenshi Yonezu – Grim Reaper

Shinigami Kenshi Yonezu

Kenshi Yonezu has many uniquely distinctive songs, but among them, “Shinigami” stands out in particular.

It’s a track inspired by classical rakugo, with lyrics that pay homage to the rakugo piece of the same name, “Shinigami.” The sound carries a Japanese traditional flavor while still feeling stylish.

When singing it, try tackling the rakugo-like phrasing in the lyrics with care.

The key itself doesn’t fluctuate much, so it’s also recommended for karaoke beginners.

Cinderella GrayKenshi Yonezu

Cinderella Gray Kenshi Yonezu

Cinderella Gray, which captivates listeners with its dark atmosphere, is also highly recommended.

It’s a track included on the album Bremen.

The title is a coined word that combines “Cinderella” with “gray.” In the song, while drawing parallels to the Cinderella story, it portrays the pent-up feelings of a woman who can’t be honest with her true emotions.

Although the vibe is dark, the Latin-style, rhythmic sound makes it energizing.

Another plus is that many of the same lyrics repeat, making it easy to sing along.

Kenshi Yonezu – Neighbourhood

Neighbourhood Kenshi Yonezu

Let me introduce a guitar-centered song, “Neighbourhood.” It’s the B-side to “Peace Sign.” It’s said to be based on Kenshi Yonezu’s childhood experiences, depicting a child’s boredom, dissatisfaction, and anxieties about the future, alongside the grown-up child speaking to their younger self.

The lyrics are especially appealing to music fans, featuring references to musical proper nouns.

Overall, it’s slow with a blues-like vibe, so you can take your time and sing it without rushing.
