She is one of the celebrated “Flower ’82 Generation” that produced many stars of the Showa-era pop scene.
Released in 1982 as her third single, the song portrays a girl who keeps her boyfriend on his toes.
You might call it “calculatingly cute” in today’s terms.
It’s a catchy kayōkyoku number that’s easy to groove to and perfectly matches the carefree mood of a Saturday when you want to have fun without worrying about the time!

Monologue, on the way to schoolUbanaroku
This is a Vocaloid song that sings of feelings for a loved one who never comes to pick you up, tightening your chest with its heartrending sorrow.
It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer Rok Uhana, also known for the hit “Gankubi, Soroete Gokigenyō,” released in 2021.
After graduation, the beloved promised, “I’ll come for you.” But no matter how much time passes, they never appear.
Just imagining what’s going on in the protagonist’s heart is enough to make you cry.
If you’ve experienced a long-distance breakup, it may resonate with you even more.

It’s a solo track by Ikuko Harada, the vocalist of the band clammbon, included on her 2008 release Kihai to Yoin (Traces and Afterglow).
For moments like “My heart feels a little tired” or “I’m anxious about what the future holds,” this work will be there by your side.
Listen while reflecting on your past and your future.
DreamYoshi Ikuzo
The classic song “Dream,” which gained nationwide popularity as the commercial jingle for Shin Nihon House, isn’t enka but primarily pop.
It features a breezy, surfer-music-like feel with a smooth, flowing vocal line.
Since it’s pop, there’s no kobushi-style ornamentation.
Additionally, the vocal range is quite narrow, so even those with a limited range or who struggle with enka should be able to sing it without trouble.
Its name recognition is tremendous, making it a big hit at karaoke.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
Dong, Nan, Xi, BeiToki Asako
Asako Toki is a female singer-songwriter whose father is the renowned saxophonist Hideshi Toki.
Inheriting her father’s knack for composition, she has earned high acclaim in the industry for her genreless musical style that blends R&B, jazz, techno, pop, and more.
Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is “Dong, Nan, Xi, Bei.” Strongly influenced by Chinese pop, it features an Asian-flavored, singable vocal line.
While the pitch is high, the overall range isn’t wide, so as long as you adjust the key to suit your voice, you shouldn’t have any particular issues with vocal range.
Sea of LamentationShiroyama Mitsuki
Mitsuki Shiroyama is an enka singer from Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture, born on September 1.
Since her debut in May 2015 with “Tairyo Onna Bushi / Kamome,” she has released numerous singles.
Her catchphrase is “Resonant lows, sparkling highs,” and she also serves as a Himeji Furusato Ambassador and a Shiso Tourism Ambassador.
Released in February 2024, her song “Dokoku no Umi” is a tragic love ballad that blends the flavors of kayokyoku and enka.
The lyrics are imbued with deep emotions of parting and the longing for reunion.
Within it dwells an earnest wish many can relate to: the heartfelt desire to meet again with a beloved person.
Listeners are deeply moved by Shiroyama’s powerful and passionate vocals, which vividly convey the feeling of being torn apart.
