Songs with titles starting with 'Yu' (91–100)

The continuation of a dreamInori Minase

The continuation of the dream, Inori Minase

It’s a song released on September 3, 2025, and it was apparently created as an homage to Inori Minase’s own song “Yume no Tsubomi.” Overall, it’s bright and slightly high-pitched, so it’s an easy pick for those who are good with higher notes.

If high notes aren’t your strong point, it’s totally fine to lower the key by about two steps.

The melody is fairly simple, so you should be able to learn it quickly! For the high parts, if you just belt with a loud voice, you’ll strain your throat, so raise your tone above your normal speaking voice and use a bright voice as your base.

When you focus on that voice, your eyebrows and facial muscles will naturally lift—do you feel that? Try keeping that expression and projecting your voice far into the distance! If the sound comes out cleanly without catching in your throat, you’re doing it right.

It’ll also make it easier to stay on pitch, so give it a try!

YOU DON’T GIVE UPTomomi Kahala

A gentle, heartwarming single by Tomomi Kahala where piano and strings softly embrace the listener—her tenth single.

Originally a recut from the acclaimed 1997 album “storytelling,” it was released as a single in April 1998.

The song’s appeal lies in its warm message of encouragement, as if gently nudging someone you care about forward.

Kahala’s vocals express this with delicate yet resolute strength.

It was also featured in a Kanebo Cosmetics commercial and reached No.

7 on the Oricon weekly chart.

It’s the kind of anthem that gives you the courage to face tomorrow, whether you want to cheer someone on or need support when you feel like you might falter yourself.

Dreams Shattered - I Dreamed a Dream -Tomomi Kahala

This number marked Tomomi Kahara’s return as an artist, breaking nearly seven years of silence.

Her orchestral cover of the world-renowned musical Les Misérables’ iconic song is nothing short of breathtaking.

The protagonist who refuses to abandon hope even after seeing dreams shattered overlaps with her own story, rich with experience, powerfully touching listeners’ hearts and stirring deep emotion.

Released as a single in April 2013, the track reached No.

13 on the Oricon Weekly Chart.

It is a gem of a ballad that gently nudges you forward at life’s crossroads, giving you the courage to face ahead once more.

You And MeEhrling

Ehrling – You And Me (Vlog No Copyright Music)
You And MeEhrling

Music producer Ehrling, who has gained popularity with his tropical house–driven sound.

His melodies—featuring a saxophone that seems to sing—have drawn attention as BGM for vlogs.

Among his tracks, this is one I especially recommend.

Included on the album “Tropical Confessions, Pt.

2” and released in March 2017, this instrumental piece—despite having no lyrics—beautifully conveys the intimate theme of “you and me.” The buoyant saxophone tones feel as if they’re portraying irreplaceable moments spent by two people.

Thanks to its breezy vibe, it pairs perfectly with travel diaries and driving videos.

If you’re aiming to make a stylish vlog, this track is a must-check!

Yuika, who wants to become a ghost.

This is the opening theme song for the TV anime “Wataru-kun’s XX Is on the Verge of Collapse,” which began airing in July 2025.

It’s especially popular among students, and some of my students who like Yuika have been singing it too! When I listened to the song, my impression was that the rhythm in the chorus is tricky.

If you try to sing before memorizing the melody, you might not know where to break phrases or where to breathe.

If you hum along while listening, you can memorize the melody, and once you can hum it lightly, you’ll be able to relax and sing more easily.

The chorus uses the same melody with only slight changes to the lyrics, so once you get past that part, it should be easier to sing.

Also, if breathing is difficult, don’t try to sing everything at 100%; try easing your voice in little by little.

When you hit a spot where you can think, “I can breathe here!” take a deep breath!

It was released on August 27, 2025, and it’s also the theme song for the anime “Pokémon: Episode Mega Evolution”! The reading is “Yū.” It’s a stylish song with a touch of traditional Japanese flavor! Since it’s a Pokémon song, it’s easy to get into, and the lyrics carry a strong message of “forging your own path,” which might really resonate with teens.

Yuzu’s songs are generally easy for women to sing as long as there aren’t low notes! This track stays mostly in the mid-to-high range, so it might be composed in a key that’s easy for just about anyone to sing.

The chorus starts on G#4 and then steps down, so if you put a clear accent on that very first note, it’ll make projecting your voice easier! The opening is crucial, so keep that momentum going as you sing!

Released in August 2025, this work by Miyuki Nagai is a minor-key kayō enka song, featuring lyrics by poet Rein Dōzan and composition by Akihiro Ōtani.

The lyrics depict a woman who dreamed of a one-night romance and now struggles with the conflict of wanting to forgive yet being unable to.

The protagonist’s feelings, likened to the confederate rose, are expressed in words that are both beautiful and heartrending, leaving a deep impression on listeners.

It’s a piece that invites you to savor the anguish and futility of love.
