Before GoodbyeAAA

One of the popular songs by the co-ed group AAA, “Sayonara no Mae ni” (Before Goodbye), portrays the wavering emotions you feel when a romance comes to an end.
Even if you don’t know AAA, many people may still know this song.
While the theme is bittersweet, the chorus has a bright sound that gives the song a somewhat positive vibe.
Since AAA is a mixed-gender group, it’s also a great karaoke track you can enjoy in different ways—splitting parts between male and female singers, or having only the men or only the women sing.
Unrequited loveAimer

Aimer is a popular singer known for her distinctive voice and solid vocal skills.
She has many tie-in songs with anime, so if you’re an anime fan, you’ve probably heard of her! “Kataomoi” is a beloved love song by Aimer released in 2016.
The lyrics, which express feelings that don’t reach the one you love, really resonate when you’re experiencing unrequited love.
It’s a bittersweet yet tender track that moves many listeners.
It’s a beautiful ballad you’ll want to hear while thinking of the person you love.
bow knotAimer

Aimer is a female singer who captivates listeners with a voice that conveys pride in her own sound and a resolute commitment to singing.
Her 11th single, “Butterfly Knot,” which was selected as the theme song for the information program Sukkiri!!, also drew attention for being produced and written by Yojiro Noda of RADWIMPS.
True to its title, the message that things only come together when both sides are present is deeply moving—whether you’re singing it or listening to it.
The melody and dynamics are challenging and require practice, but it’s a highly recommended karaoke number that we hope you’ll learn to sing.
Best FrendKiroro

It’s a song I want to sing with great care, with someone special in mind.
Sung by two artists from Okinawa, this song has been passed down from adults to children.
Their voices have a delicate yet dynamic power that reaches everyone’s heart and gently unravels even the most troubled ones.
flameLiSA

Demon Slayer saw a surge so great after its 2019 anime broadcast that it could be called a social phenomenon.
Following the anime’s opening theme, LiSA also handled the theme song for the film Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train.
As a fan of the original manga, she wrote the lyrics herself, and they closely mirror the film’s story, moving many Demon Slayer fans to tears.
It’s a song that draws you into the protagonists’ tale—one of facing a formidable enemy with courage while carrying countless partings and sorrows.
Shape of LoveMISIA feat.HIDE(GReeeeN)

It’s a love song whose grand vocals by MISIA strike the heart.
It was chosen as the theme song for the drama “Gibo to Musume no Blues,” starring Haruka Ayase.
MISIA’s songs are challenging, but when you hear her soaring voice, you can’t help wanting to sing along too.
It’s a moving track, thanks to MISIA’s vocals and the lyrics overflowing with love.
