A portion of the CD sales and karaoke royalties is donated to the charity fund.
It’s customary for all the performers to join in a grand chorus at the end of the show.
Next time you go to karaoke, how about singing “Sarai” together and helping contribute to the donations?

It’s a grand, fast-paced rock tune that showcases each member’s uniquely distinctive vocals.

The theme song for the Nippon TV drama “Kiss That Kills” is Masaki Suda’s “Sayonara Elegy.” In the 2019 mid-year karaoke rankings, it placed 3rd on DAM (Tsushin Karaoke) and 4th on JOYSOUND.
It’s a fast-paced number with poignant lyrics and Suda’s gripping, intense vocals as its appeal.

The chorus, in particular, feels great!

“LOVE Machine” is a classic karaoke song that’s been beloved since its release for the way you can add call-and-response shouts.

It has a unique structure where interjections come in after each phrase right from the beginning.
While most songs only have one section where you can add calls, this one lets you keep the energy high from start to finish.
Another plus is that people of all generations know it.
