MUSIC VIDEOOkazaki Taiiku
This is a smash hit song by Okazaki Taiiku, a singer-songwriter from Kyoto.
The music video humorously visualizes classic music video clichés, making anyone chuckle.
Despite that tongue-in-cheek content, it features a very catchy melody.
It’s less about dancing a full routine and more about mimicking the moves.

♪ Nema Hamo Rumor (half of the chorus) – AKB48
Have you ever found yourself wondering which song to dance to when you’re expected to perform a dance as entertainment at a year-end or New Year’s party? In times like that, I recommend AKB48’s “Ne mo Ha mo Rumor.” This upbeat, high-energy track is widely known, so everyone at the venue can enjoy it together.
Just be aware that some parts of the lyrics are quite fast, but if you can handle that, the crowd will definitely get pumped up.
Even if you’re not used to dancing or don’t have much practice time, it’s okay.
Why not get everyone at the venue excited together?
WiSH VOYAGEAidorisshu Sebun
If you’ve got people around you who enjoy a nerdy vibe, how about this? It’s a video that perfectly recreates the opening of the anime “IDOLiSH7.” Since it’s originally a 2D work, expressions like cosplay can be tricky, but once you learn the choreography, you won’t need advanced dance skills.
However, to get the costumes just right, you’ll need to visit a cosplay specialty shop or carefully choose sizes and buy them online.
If you’re going for a joke, a wig should be enough, I think.
wotagei
Wotagei is the dance where fans wave glow sticks at idol concerts! Let’s give it a try! You can dance to any song you like.
There are lots of different wotagei moves, and PPPH—where you clap and chant “pan, pa-pan, hyuu” in time with the romance or the rhythm of the song—is especially well-known.
There are many other types too, so try combining them, grab a penlight, and get into full otaku mode!
Sparkle feat. KannaAI
This is the track chosen as the theme song for the drama “Kanna-san!”.
It’s a collaboration between comedian and lead actress Naomi Watanabe and AI.
The warm harmony of these two powerhouses feels so good! The lyrics, which encourage you to keep moving forward on your own terms without fearing failure—even if you stumble—are truly uplifting.
There’s no fixed choreography, but in the music video, Naomi Watanabe dances with expressive gestures that match the lyrics.
Try singing with swagger while moving freely like she does!
chantAdo
Ado’s “Show” became the theme song for Universal Studios Japan’s Halloween event.
As the track progresses, the groove picks up, and you’ll definitely feel like jumping up to dance! What’s more, the lyrics—rich with difficult kanji—are not only pleasing to the ear, but also add an extra boost to the dance vibe.
The highlight of the Halloween event, “Zombie de Dance,” is packed with unique choreography that’s sure to excite both dancers and spectators alike.
If you want to stand out at year-end or New Year parties, give it a try!
KiND PEOPLEBiSH
This is a song by BiSH that sings about both the suffocation and the gentleness of human connections.
True to their title as a “punk band without instruments,” it conveys a message that feels like a powerful shout.
The choreography in the music video is also striking: the sight of many people dancing with expressionless faces seems to depict the pain of being within a group.
In contrast to the driving, powerful sound, the choreography is simple, creating a staging that feels like a direct expression of inner emotions.
Emphasizing formation and forcing oneself to move in the same way as others—almost painfully—seems crucial to conveying the song’s message.
