Winter StoryOkamura Takako

Takako Okamura “Winter Story” (Official Full ver.) Takako Okamura

Akiko Okamura’s winter classic “Winter Story,” released in 1996.

It was used as the ending theme for TV Asahi’s program “Kinkin no Tokoton Kōkishin,” and was also included on the album “BRAND-NEW.” Its lively arrangement and heartwarming lyrics are especially appealing.

The song portrays lovers in a snowy winter town, conveying feelings beyond words through the warmth of their hands.

Try singing it while emulating Okamura’s clear, translucent vocals, and let yourself sink into a nostalgic mood.

KAN’s Christmas SongKAN

Kan No Christmas Song

This song, released by KAN in 1992 as the B-side to the single “Shinu made Kimi o Hanasanai,” is characterized by its beautiful, almost a cappella harmonies.

That same year, it was used as the Christmas campaign commercial song for Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Modeled after Billy Joel’s “The Longest Time,” it was produced through KAN’s own multitrack recording.

It’s a perfect choice for anyone who wants to sing a warm, gently moving song.

Somewhere in a distant town…Nagayama Miho

Miho Nakayama / Somewhere in a Distant Town…

This was Miho Nakayama’s 23rd single, released on November 1, 1991.

It was used as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Aitai Toki ni Anata wa Inai…” in which Nakayama herself starred.

The song poignantly sings of a Christmas spent thinking of a loved one from far away.

I imagine many people have similar Christmas memories.

It’s a mid-tempo, very singable track, so why not try singing it while reminiscing about those nostalgic times?

God of RomanceHirose Kōmi

Kohmi Hirose – God of Romance (Official Video)

Kohmi Hirose entertains us with her powerful vocals and down-to-earth personality.

“God of Romance” is the song that really put her on the map! Its use in commercials for the ski-goods brand Alpen may be one reason it became such a big hit.

With lyrics reflecting the times—like group dating, a five-day workweek, and flex time—people in their 50s will likely feel a nostalgic tug at the heartstrings.

It’s an irresistibly bright, catchy pop tune, so it’s also perfect for blowing off steam by singing it at karaoke during a Christmas party!
