So in this article, I’ll introduce songs that start with “ba” to give you some hints for shiritori karaoke!

When it comes to words that start with “ba,” there are lots that sound like they could be in song titles, such as “Bye-bye,” “Bara (rose),” and “Butterfly.”

It was GACKT’s second single and one of his signature songs.

It’s characterized by sexual, provocative lyrics and a distinctive sound that incorporates ska rhythms.

It reportedly reached No.

4 on the Oricon weekly chart and sold about 250,000 copies.

It might be hard to imagine for people who mainly know songs from the Reiwa era, but GACKT has a very wide vocal range and outstanding singing ability.

In Vanilla, the range spans B2 to C5, so many people actually trying to sing it will probably think, “It’s low and it’s high!” The tempo is fast, and the key modulates in the final chorus, pushing the pitch even higher, so it may be tough to nail on a first try.

Make sure to resonate solidly in your chest so you can sing it powerfully!
