DALLA DALLAITZY

ITZY “달라달라(DALLA DALLA)” Dance Practice (2020 Ver.)
DALLA DALLAITZY

If you’re a girl who wants to nail not just cuteness but a cool vibe too, we recommend ITZY’s “DALLA DALLA”! It’s included on their 2019 mini album “IT’z ICY.” The choreography doesn’t just look cool—it’s thoughtfully designed with formations, so when you hit it cleanly, it makes for an incredibly striking stage.

The bouncy jumps and hand movements are super cute, and within that there are slightly sexy moments and cool parts that can rival the guys, so it entertains viewers with lots of different elements!

This song has a sense of speed that makes it hard to believe it’s about “darkness.” With its digital sound that’s sure to crank up the energy and make you want to dance, the track is “Dark Half” by the three-member music unit Iceman, a band that included Daisuke Asakura.

It was included on their 1997 album POWER SCALE.

Rather than a song that stays by your side in your darkness, it’s more about someone who tries to understand that darkness.

This is a 2012 release by Juliet.

Whenever I listen to this song, which straightforwardly expresses feelings to someone you love, it makes me want to blurt out, “I love you!” It’s a song that poppily and cutely sings about a girl’s feelings in love.

Listening to this tingly, love-struck song gives me a ticklish feeling.

KANA-BOON has performed multiple anime theme songs, and in particular, they’ve done many for the Naruto series.

Diver was chosen as the theme song for the movie Boruto: Naruto the Movie.

KANA-BOON’s appeal lies in their catchy songs and the familiar, high-tone vocals of Maguro Taniguchi—music that feels approachable from the very first listen.

On top of that, their style layers in a sense of youthfulness and speed depending on the track, earning them popularity not only among many rock kids but also in the anison scene.

Dark HappyKanaria

Dark Happy, produced in 2020 by the Vocaloid producer kanaria—who gained attention with the massive hit KING—portrays a bittersweet yet honest feeling toward a loved one, conjuring an image of a cynically smiling figure.

Despite its melodious tone, the sound carries a uniquely dark worldview.

Even Hatsune Miku’s light, airy vocals convey a sense of irony.

With its driving beat, it’s a Vocaloid track that will energize any karaoke session.

Try delivering a cool yet passionate vocal performance.

King Gnu’s vocals are primarily handled by Satoru Iguchi, but there are songs where Daiki Tsuneta takes the lead.

One of those is Danjo.

While many of their other tracks feature Iguchi as a co-lead in a twin-vocal setup, this song puts Tsuneta in the spotlight as the lead vocalist.

The melody is somewhat complex, but because the song’s structure is quite orthodox compared to their other works, it should be relatively easy to sing.

Be sure to check it out.

Because that’s true, isn’t it!?LINDBERG

The 16th single “Datte sou janai!?” was used as the commercial song for Fujifilm’s AXIA J’Z.

Its structure, moving from the striking opening guitar riff into the chorus, instantly cranks up the energy.

Since the verses and pre-chorus sit in a lower range while the chorus surges forward, dynamic contrast is key—but the melody itself is simple with no fast runs, making it easy to sing.

It’s a driving rock tune that’s guaranteed to get a crowd going at karaoke with people of that generation.
