Don't give up on your dreamsTakako Okamura

Don't Give Up on Your Dreams by Takako Okamura

After flourishing as a member of Amin and later achieving great success as a solo singer, Takako Okamura is widely recognized for her signature song “Yume wo Akiramenai de” (“Don’t Give Up on Your Dreams”).

Many may perceive this piece as high in pitch, especially given Okamura’s vocal timbre; however, it actually spans a relatively narrow range of mid1 G# to hi C#.

Since it’s neither particularly low nor high, it offers considerable flexibility for key adjustments, and its relaxed tempo makes it easier to maintain rhythm.

YOU’VE GOT THE WORLDSuchmos

YOU’VE GOT THE WORLD (Live at YOKOHAMA ARENA 2018.11.25)
YOU'VE GOT THE WORLDSuchmos

It’s a track with a stadium-shaking sense of grandeur and an urban, sophisticated groove that resonates comfortably.

You can hear a strong will battling something unseen, climbing higher despite uncertainty—almost like the band’s own statement of intent.

With a triumphant declaration that the world is theirs, it carries a powerful message that frees the listener’s heart.

The song appears on the mini-album “THE ASHTRAY,” released in June 2018.

As other tracks from the same album were used in commercials, it reached many new fans.

When you’re feeling a bit timid in the face of a big goal, doesn’t this song make you feel like it’s saying, “You can do it” and giving you a push?

This is a grand instrumental piece where a lyrical piano melody intertwines with the deep breath of the shakuhachi and the delicate timbre of the koto.

Composed by Yuko Suzuhana, who is also a master of shigin (traditional Japanese recitation), the absence of lyrics allows the musical dialogue among the three instruments to paint vast natural landscapes directly in the listener’s mind.

The track is included on Hanaze’s album “Awaki Utsutsu ni Yume Kasane,” released in June 2017.

Its sound, evoking the flow of eternal time, is perfect for calming nights or moments when you want to immerse yourself in creative work.

A Dream-Colored LifeMiwa Tanaka

Miwa Tanaka, affectionately known as “O-Miwako-sama,” has long been beloved by listeners.

Many of you may find comfort in her sun-bright voice that comes through the radio and the occasional airheaded moments she shows.

Yet when she takes the microphone and stands on stage as an enka singer, she radiates a mature charm of a different kind.

She made her debut with “Misoji-zaka” thanks to a radio show project.

Her expressive power—singing tenderly of heartbreaking love with a depth you’d never expect from her usually friendly, familiar persona—is nothing short of stunning.

With her versatile allure, her singing captivates us before we know it.

This is a song by Official HIGE DANDism with a warm, comforting Black music vibe.

Released as a single in February 2021, it was created as the theme song for the film Doraemon: Nobita’s Little Star Wars 2021.

The track is also included on the acclaimed album Editorial.

Its grand, gospel-inspired arrangement paired with Satoshi Fujihara’s clear, transparent vocals creates a soothing sense of reassurance that gently envelops the listener.

The message that even if each person is small, connecting with others can become a great strength is part of the song’s appeal.

It’s a track I hope you’ll listen to when taking a new step forward or when your heart feels a little tired.

Legend of DreamsStardust☆Revue

Since Stardust Revue’s Mr.

Kaname Nemoto has a wide vocal range and a high voice, men in their 50s—even if they’re fans of his generation—may tend to avoid singing his songs.

That’s why I recommend Yume Densetsu.

In this song, the lowest note is mid1 F# and the highest is high B.

While it’s on the higher side overall, the low range is narrow, so the overall range required is about average.

In other words, as long as you can adjust the key, it’s quite singable.

It may still feel a bit high, but the vocal line itself is simple, making it a song with solid potential for a high score.

It’s an emotional rock tune that feels like it tightly bottles up the unique sentimental air of late summer! “Yubikiri Genman” by Kaneyori Masaru, a girls’ band from Osaka, is a bittersweet song that brings a sudden rush of glittering summer memories to your heart.

Vocalist Mina Chitose’s somewhat ephemeral voice paints both the tenderness and the loneliness for those happy days at the same time.

With a wistful melody line that fans of bands like Chatmonchy are sure to love, it’s perfect for moments of reflection as the seasons pass.

Why not soak in your summer memories while listening to this track?
