Bye Bye My Love (U are the one)Sazan Ōrusutāzu
A song that portrays deep feelings for a loved one and the pain of parting.
Set to the pop melodies of Southern All Stars, the poignant lyrics resonate with the heart.
Released in May 1985, this track is also included on the album “KAMAKURA” and has continued to be cherished by fans.
The sounds of the accordion and saxophone create a nostalgic atmosphere.
It’s a perfect song for those who have experienced heartbreak or are trying to overcome a farewell with someone dear.
Sing it at karaoke, and it’s sure to strike a chord.
Bang, bang, bangZa Supaidāsu
The Spiders, the legendary band that sparked the Group Sounds boom.
Those in their early 60s might not be familiar with them, but those in their late 60s are likely the generation that experienced Group Sounds firsthand.
With that in mind, I recommend Ban Ban Ban.
It’s a classic, as everyone knows.
While it has a strong rock flavor, the vocal line is surprisingly restrained and set within a relatively narrow range.
There aren’t many long notes, either, so it’s also a good choice for those who feel unsure about their breathing.
Balloonsharuru
The song that took the number one spot on JOYSOUND’s overall karaoke rankings is “Charles.” It’s a track released in 2016 by the Vocaloid producer Balloon.
The lyrics depict the sense of loss felt by a man who has lost someone important to him.
However, it’s not a ballad—the melody has a rhythmic, Latin-flavored feel.
Since the original is sung by a Vocaloid, try finding your own breathing points when you sing it.
BirdmanZūkaraderu
Zaqroderu, a three-piece rock band that’s been gaining momentum again lately.
They’ve been active since 2015, but after releasing an album in 2024, they’ve once more started drawing attention in the Japanese rock scene.
Their new song “Birdman” reflects this resurgence.
It has a slightly punky feel, with a lively, chaotic vibe running throughout.
The vocal range isn’t particularly wide, and there aren’t many long sustained notes, making it especially easy for male singers.
Definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.
late autumnTeresa Ten
Teresa Teng, celebrated throughout her life as the songstress of Asia, continued to sing of dreams, love, and melancholy.
She made her debut in Japan in 1974, captivating many fans with a voice that blended passion and poignancy.
This song is a masterpiece in which she delicately portrays the feelings of a woman experiencing the pain of a broken heart and the loneliness that follows.
It was included as the B-side to Yuunagi, released in 1992.
It’s a perfect song to listen to on a long autumn night while thinking of someone dear.
bande dessinéeDoresukōzu
The title track of their second album, released in 2013, is this “Bande Dessinée.” Originally, “bande dessinée” is a French term for comics, and from the Merzbow-era—sorry, from the Maezawa Fur’s Maries era—Shima has had a distinctive habit of using words like “comic” and “shōnen manga” in song titles and lyrics.
The way he weaves these uncommon, striking words into titles and verses is one of the appealing quirks of his songwriting.
This track, with its crisp rock sound, catchy, familiar melody line, and lyrics that reflect on a worldview, can be seen as a song that encapsulates the essence of early The Dresscodes.
Bye-Bye MonkeyNyūrotika
A coming-of-age farewell song from the punk rock band Neurotica.
Powerful guitar riffs and driving drums capture the pounding hearts of students facing graduation.
In vocalist ATSUSHI’s singing, you can feel both excitement and anxiety about a new world.
The track was featured in the arcade music game “pop’n music 17 THE MOVIE.” It’s a perfect song to play at graduation gigs or farewell parties—one that lets you cherish parting with friends while giving you the courage to take a new step forward.
