Do You Know The Way To San JoseBurt Bacharach
This is a gem of a song by Burt Bacharach, distinguished by its gentle, soul-soothing melody and sophisticated harmonies.
The lyrics, which portray a young man returning to his hometown after his dreams have fallen apart, stand in striking contrast to the buoyant rhythm, creating a deeply resonant impression.
Released in April 1968 as a track on the album “Dionne Warwick in Valley of the Dolls,” it became a worldwide hit through Dionne Warwick’s vocals.
The song was also featured in Chrysler Dodge car commercials and in the music program at Disney California Adventure.
It’s a perfect piece to enjoy with a calm heart during a quick refresh between work or study, or as soothing background music when you’re feeling emotionally tired.
Drifters’ tongue twistersZa Dorifutāzu
This is a fresh, humorous piece that fires off classic Japanese tongue twisters one after another over a funky groove.
Released in June 1981, the song is a comic number with lyrics by Chosuke Ikariya and music by Akihiko Takashima.
From “nama mugi, nama gome, nama tamago” to “tonari no takegaki take tatekaketa,” familiar tongue twisters are delivered with each Drifters member’s uniquely expressive voice and performance.
The inventive arrangement, which incorporates Wilson Pickett–style rhythms, also shines.
Included on the album “Drif no Hayakuchi Kotoba,” it was performed in the “Shonen Shojo Gasshodai” segment of TBS’s “Hachiji da yo! Zen’in Shugo.” It’s a purely fun track that makes you want to sing and play along with friends during school breaks.

Dotonbori SentimentŌe Yutaka
The piece Dotonbori Ninjō, themed around Dotonbori—an iconic spot in my hometown Osaka—is a regional enka song with lyrics by Kaoru Wakayama and music by Toshiaki Yamada, known through versions by artists like Yoshimi Tendo.
In this version sung by Hiroshi Ōe, the opening sits quite low, so the chorus lands with a relatively restrained impact.
As a result, you don’t need to focus on vocal power and can sing with ease.
There are no kobushi embellishments that leap by more than three to five scale degrees, so overall it can be considered enka on the easier end of the spectrum.
