Just by you being herekome kome CLUB
The 13th single by Kome Kome Club, released in May 1992.
Helped by its use as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Sugao no Mama de,” it became a massive hit, selling over 2 million copies in total.
As a hit from the early ’90s, the heyday of J-pop, many people who are now in their 50s likely enjoyed singing this song at karaoke back then.
Watching the video again now, you can feel the “bubble-era vibe” everywhere—from vocalist Carl Smoky Ishii’s hairstyle and costumes to various elements of the song.
If you recall that atmosphere while singing it, you might find it even more enjoyable.
Embracing SummerTUBE
With a sound that evokes clear blue skies and a shining sun, this is a quintessential summer song from TUBE.
It expresses a love so intense it keeps you up at night, conveyed through passionate lyrics and melody.
The protagonist’s once-in-a-lifetime feelings are sure to awaken bittersweet memories of love that many have experienced.
Released in May 1994, it was a massive hit, reaching No.
1 on the Oricon charts and selling 940,000 copies.
It was also featured in a Toyota Corolla Ceres commercial and has become a karaoke staple beloved by many.
It’s the perfect track for reminiscing with close friends or colleagues as you look back together on life’s milestones.
Goodbye DayKisugi Takao
Takao Kisugi is one of the composers who defined the 1980s.
He wrote numerous classic songs such as “Silhouette Romance” and “Slow Motion,” and for a time he was also active as a singer-songwriter.
Among Kisugi’s many works, the one I especially recommend is “Goodbye Day.” It’s a piece where his signature ‘Kisugi style’ is in full bloom, but on top of that, it has a smooth finish and a very singable vocal line with a narrow range.
There are plenty of long tones, but the melodic contours are very gentle, so a man in his 50s should be able to sing it without any trouble.
Christmas songback number
This is back number’s 14th single, released in November 2015.
It was chosen as the theme song for Fuji TV’s Monday 9 p.m.
drama “5→9: The Monk Who Fell in Love with Me” and won the Best Drama Song at the 87th The Television Drama Academy Awards, so many of you have probably heard it.
Sung by vocalist Iyori Shimizu, whose high notes are wonderfully beautiful, it may intimidate some people into hesitating to try it at karaoke after just one listen—but there’s no need to worry! It’s true that, for a male-vocal track, the original key is set quite high, but the vocal melody itself is relatively simple.
If you adjust the key to suit your range, many people should be able to aim for a high score.
There are sections with some pitch leaps, such as in the latter half of the chorus, but if you prepare in advance—practicing transitions between chest voice and falsetto and paying attention to vowel and consonant articulation in the lyrics—you can take on the challenge with confidence.
The Summer Without YouDEEN
This is DEEN’s 12th single overall, released in August 1997.
It was also used as the fourth ending theme for the Nippon TV anime Detective Conan.
As you’d expect from DEEN, who scored a string of big hits in the ’90s when “being often sung at karaoke” was a key condition for a song to become a hit, this track is also crafted to be very easy to sing and remember.
To aim for a high score, you’ll likely need to study the vocalist’s subtle phrasing in detail, but there aren’t any difficult parts, so definitely give it a try.
If you place the resonance so the sound hits the upper palate inside your mouth, you can produce a voice with lots of high-order overtones—a slightly sparkling tone—similar to the original singer.
