Gather the starsotsumami feat.mikan
A warm winter song that gently accompanies people walking through a city in the cold.
otsumami feat.
mikan is a project by a production team with a proven track record in providing J-pop songs, featuring Yuka Togashi from the idol group “Title TBD,” who performs under the name mikan.
Released in December 2025, this piece was selected as the theme song for the “Kobe TOTTEI Christmas Market 2025,” held at TOTTEI PARK in Kobe.
The resonant sounds of live instruments—piano, strings, and wind chimes—are soothing, and its message, like a light for those quietly persevering, sinks deep into the heart.
Another appeal is that it doesn’t rely too heavily on Christmas imagery, making it a universal anthem of encouragement that resonates in any season.
Though a gentle ballad, it has a distinctive forward momentum, and if performed in the latter half of a karaoke session, it will softly wrap the listeners’ hearts.
Wonderful HolidayTakeuchi Mariya
“A Wonderful Holiday” was written for a Kentucky Fried Chicken commercial and has been beloved since 2000.
In Japan, chicken is strongly associated with Christmas, and thanks to that, this song has become quite a Christmas staple! Its light, breezy melody and charming yet grand string arrangement are delightful, making it a great pick for Christmas karaoke!
Merry XmasBoA
Meri Kuri is a classic Christmas song by BoA, a singer from South Korea.
The chorus is beautiful and catchy—you’ve probably heard it before.
When you think of the feel of a Christmas song, this track embodies it perfectly! The falsetto parts in the chorus aren’t easy for everyone to sing, but it’s a masterpiece—give it a try!

My lover is Santa ClausMatsutōya Yumi
It was used as an insert song in the film “Take Me Out to the Snowland,” starring Tomoyo Harada.
If you sing it while chatting with your girlfriends about love—like, “What would a boyfriend who’s like Santa Claus be like?”—the song becomes even more fun! It’s an enjoyable number to sing on your own or together with a few friends!
HappinessAI
Familiar from Coca-Cola commercials, AI’s “Happiness” is perfect for Christmas.
Its melody makes it easy for everyone there to sing along and clap their hands, making it an ideal pick for a fun Christmas karaoke session! Not only does the tune overflow with the holiday spirit, but the fact that everyone present can enjoy it together is a big plus.
WINTER WITHOUT YOUXG
A classic song about the bittersweet feelings of winter love is captured in XG’s December 2023 release.
Set against a wintry electric piano tone, the distinctive vocal effects leave a strong impression.
It reveals a more emotive side that feels different from XG’s typically edgy sound.
The lyrics express the ache of thinking about a loved one far away at Christmas, conveyed through warm sensibilities and sweet harmonies that truly resonate.
In a season when the city is wrapped in a full-on Christmas mood, this is a song we especially recommend to anyone feeling the loneliness of not being able to spend the time with someone special.
Wonderful DayTwice
This song is set against a winter backdrop and centers on themes of bittersweet feelings, wishes, and hope.
Amid falling snow, it expresses the hope that dreams and wishes will come true through classic winter imagery like illuminations and snowflakes.
It was released as the second track on TWICE’s Japan-original single “Doughnut” in December 2021.
With a gentle melody and lyrics that evoke the season, it’s a heartwarming piece for listeners.
It’s a perfect song to sing at karaoke during the Christmas season, conveying feelings for someone special.
