Cool songs (31–40)

SenbonzakuraWagakki Band

The Vocaloid song “Senbonzakura” is very famous, and this time I’ll explain it using the easier-to-understand Wagakki Band version.

Since the lyrics contain lots of difficult kanji and words, I recommend memorizing it by ear so you can handle it at karaoke! When singing, the key point is to articulate clearly so the words don’t get blurred.

In particular, crisp vowel pronunciation will make it easier to listen to and sing.

The A-melody has a lot of words, so rather than “singing every single word firmly,” it’s probably best to sing with a light, bouncy feel.

The chorus builds toward the end and includes some long notes, so singing in a comfortable voice for you will feel great.

It’s a famous song, so many people have covered it.

Be sure to listen to various versions of “Senbonzakura” and find the one you like best!

Chanmina’s Harenchi is sung mostly in a lower register, giving off a mature, sultry vibe.

Just when you think it will end quietly, the last chorus turns emotional and shifts into a slightly higher range.

I think that switch is really important.

There’s also a rap section in the middle, so that part needs practice too.

My students practiced the rap section a lot as well.

When the rap really lands, it feels great to sing and sounds very cool.

For the rap melody, it seems easy to memorize if you first focus on humming or using a neutral syllable like “la” instead of the lyrics.

Try singing without forcing or pushing your voice!

Adult Chick Childrenyama

Adult Chick Childrenyama

Yama is a female singer-songwriter known for her stylish vocal delivery.

While she sometimes sings R&B and clearly has strong vocal ability, Adult Chick Children showcases a vocal line that stays easy to sing throughout, while still making full use of her signature style.

The song has a narrow range, and even with the key change in the latter half, there are no truly high phrases.

However, because the vocals are sung with a relatively thick whisper tone from start to finish, trying to replicate this too precisely can make diaphragmatic control difficult and cause you to run out of breath.

If you’re not used to diaphragmatic (abdominal) breathing, start by singing without adding breathiness to your voice.

Among Ryokuoushoku Shakai’s songs, “Summertime Cinderella” has a relatively calm vocal range.

There are occasional high notes, but you don’t really need to belt them.

However, the tempo is a bit brisk at 143 BPM, so it’s important to really lock into the rhythm.

The lowest note, F#3, appears at the end of the first verse, and it’s a spot where pitching can be quite tricky.

What you should keep in mind is to keep your eyebrows lifted at all times! Not just in the low parts—if you sing with your eyebrows raised throughout, it becomes much easier to hit the pitches, so I highly recommend it.

For low notes in particular, try to project the voice in front of your eyebrows so the sound doesn’t get muffled and can resonate.

It’s not too difficult, so be sure to keep this in mind when you sing!

This is a song that left a strong impression on many people after being featured in the Kirin Chu-Hi Hyoketsu commercial.

No matter how many times you listen, the catchy, upbeat chorus will have anyone—regardless of gender—hooked.

The dance is adorable too, and if you can dance, we’d love for you to perform it along with the song!
