eternityKashii Moimi

Eternity / MoiMi Kashii feat. Uraname
eternityKashii Moimi

A heartrending song that stays close to your heart when you feel like crying.

Fully expressing Moimi Kashi’s delicate worldview, this work was released in December 2022.

The lyrics, which poignantly depict memories with a lost loved one, really sink in.

The sound arrangement, reminiscent of Taisho-era retro, is also striking.

The gentle melody gradually swells with emotion, and in the chorus those feelings surge all at once.

Anyone who has experienced the hardships and losses of life will surely relate.

Eternal FishTakahashi Mariko

The song “Eternal Fish,” included on the 14th album Pretend.

The intro opens with a spacious guitar arpeggio that ties in with the track’s overall clarity and its emotional vocals.

The melody has large pitch swings and sits relatively high, so it’s not easy, but because the rhythm of the melody is relaxed, it’s also a good choice for your karaoke repertoire.

It’s a sentimental ballad that I’d love you to sing with Mariko Takahashi’s expansive vocal style in mind.

Hideyuki Takahashi, who has worked on many songs for the Super Sentai series, is also from Yamagata Prefecture.

After graduating from high school, he went on to a university in Saitama Prefecture, where he began his music activities.

However, it’s said that his motivation to become a singer came from a singing contest he participated in during his time in Yamagata.

He made his major debut at age 34 with Engine Sentai Go-Onger.

Today, he is active in various fields, including reading picture books aloud and appearing on web programs.

If you like fiery, passionate songs or high-energy tracks, he’s a must-check.

EMBLEMUtsu P

Utsu-P – EMBLEM feat. GUMI
EMBLEMUtsu P

The piercing, aggressive sound shakes your core.

Released by Utsu-P in July 2024, this work explores questions about society and the search for personal identity.

It portrays the proof that accompanies one’s way of life using the metaphor of an “emblem.” The intense guitar riffs and heavy drums further deepen the lyrical worldview, and GUMI’s powerful vocals leave a strong impression.

It’s a song I especially recommend to those who feel out of place in modern society or are struggling to find their sense of purpose.

Enka BoatToba Ichirō

When it comes to classic enka songs themed around the rough northern seas and ships, many people probably think of Ichiro Toba’s work.

Released in July 1990, this piece vividly portrays the harsh lives and emotions of fishermen.

With lyrics by Tetsuro Hoshino and composition by Toru Funamura—an impressive duo—it masterfully expresses the hardships and joys of those who live by the sea, as well as their battles with unforgiving nature.

Centered on the lives of people engaged in North Pacific fishing, it sings of scenes like recalling one’s mother while gazing at the red sunset, and thoughts for a woman praying for safety far away.

Phrases that symbolize the way of life of men of the sea are repeated, creating a distinctive rhythm and resonance.

ENDLESS CHAINBAAD

BAAD - Endless Chain: The Infinite Knot (with Chinese subtitles)
ENDLESS CHAINBAAD

ENDLESS CHAIN, which was used as an insert song in the anime SLAM DUNK, was created by BAAD, a rock band that blazed through the 1990s.

It features a refreshing rock sound that unfolds at a medium tempo.

Its melody gently resonates in the heart, evoking memories of school days—club activities and first loves.

With a straightforward message that vows to love one’s partner no matter what, it’s a song that truly strikes a chord.

Why not listen to it while picturing the iconic scenes from the story where the players pour out their sweat and tears?

Entrust me with eternity.DEEN

DEEN is a rock duo that gained popularity as part of the Being label artists who dominated the J-POP scene in the 1990s.

Their song “Eien wo Azuketekure” (“Entrust Me with Eternity”), featured in an NTT DoCoMo ‘Pocket Bell’ commercial, is a soothing ballad with a clear, wintry feel that evokes Christmas.

The overall key is high, and the leaps in pitch in the chorus are particularly striking, so when singing it at karaoke, be sure to choose a key that suits you and take care not to go off pitch.

It’s a timeless classic that men in their 40s—who likely heard it in real time—will undoubtedly feel like singing.
