[2026] A dream collaboration song by famous artists. Popular featuring songs [Japanese music] (61–70)
A song is bornHamasaki Ayumi × KEIKO
This is the first single from the charity project “songnation,” launched in response to the September 11 attacks in the United States.
A portion of the proceeds was donated to the United Nations Headquarters.
The collaboration between two immensely popular divas at the time drew significant attention.
It is a beautiful song imbued with prayers for peace.
Presence I feat. KID FRESINOSTUTS & Matsu Takako with 3exes
The song “Presence,” tied in with the drama starring Takako Matsu and known for its music videos featuring a fresh guest rapper each time, has been generating buzz.
KID FRESINO’s sharp, tight rap overflows with a sense of freedom, like cruising through Tokyo at night.
The hook melody, reportedly written by BUTAJI, is super catchy yet uniquely textured on the ears, packing a curious charm that leaves a refreshing afterglow whether you sing it at karaoke or find yourself humming it without thinking.
Fake (feat. Haruomi Usono, Mamoru Miyabi, Mane Kamishiraishi)Nise Akira
An exquisite pop song brimming with playfulness and euphoria.
It’s the major-label debut of Nise Akira—Hoshino Gen’s close ally (perhaps?)—released in June 2025.
With the unique backstory of an April Fools’ joke turned reality, the track brilliantly captures the sparkle of the moment when a lie becomes true.
From its infuriatingly suave sound arrangement to the star-studded guest vocals, there’s plenty to savor.
Give it a careful listen!
Love is… feat. Ms.OOJAHOME MADE kazoku
Released in 2012 as HOME MADE Kazoku’s 23rd single.
A love song depicting a couple wishing for a happy future.
While carrying a touch of poignancy, it conveys the joy of finding true love—an adult love song wrapped in gentleness.
I DON’T KNOWMICA 3 CHU
Released in 2008 as a single by MICA 3 CHU and as Mika Nakashima’s 26th single.
It was the first collaboration single between Mika Nakashima and the comedy trio Morisanchu.
Their previous appearance together on a certain TV program led Nakashima to become a fan of Morisanchu, and she initiated and planned the project herself.
The song was used in a Kanebo Cosmetics “KATE” commercial.
foreignerTAK MATSUMOTO featuring ZARD
It was released in 2003 as a collaboration single between Tak Matsumoto of B’z and Izumi Sakai of ZARD.
Although it is a cover of Saki Kubota’s “Ihoujin,” the track is packed with Tak Matsumoto’s guitar technique.
It became ZARD’s final collaboration single.
Even if we’re far apart (feat. WISE)Nishino Kana
It was released in 2009 as Kana Nishino’s fifth single.
Kana Nishino interviewed couples in Nagoya who had actually experienced long-distance relationships, and, incorporating those stories along with her own long-distance relationship experiences, created this song.
It was selected as the ending theme for Chukyo TV’s “SAKAE TA☆RO” for March 2009.
