Included on the 1985 album “Play Deep.” A four-piece rock band from London that debuted in 1985.

The track features a mid-tempo, gently flowing rhythm and prominent guitar tones, yet retains a catchy pop sensibility—quite memorable.

The vocalist’s high tenor also adds a refreshing touch.

Released in 1986.

A hit song that reached No.

1 on the Billboard charts.

The lyrics are great, so I definitely recommend checking out the Japanese translation.

It has been covered by Phil Collins and The Gospellers.

With its slow tempo, it’s a soothing ballad that’s perfect to choose when the atmosphere starts to feel a bit tired.

Last ChristmasWham!

Released in 1984.

Even ten years after it became a hit, this song could still be heard around town during the Christmas season.

In the UK, it even re-entered the charts at No.

7 in 2016—an enduring classic.

In Japan, many artists, including EXILE and Seiko Matsuda, have covered it.

At the time, this was a popular Western song often used for wedding entrance music and during candle-lighting ceremonies.

Since it’s a male-female duet, it might be nice to try singing it with a woman.

It might be less familiar to people in their 20s, but among those in their 40s, many will probably know it.

Amid the Eurobeat craze, the top-selling class of artists was undoubtedly Bananarama.

Their songs were so talked about that even Japanese artists covered them.

This track is a danceable love song, but the lyrics are surprisingly serious, making it a bittersweet love song.

It’s a great choice for everyone to sing together and have a lively time.

Boys Town Gang – Can’t take my eyes off you

Originally released as a solo single by Frankie Valli in 1967, this song was covered in 1982 and became a massive hit in Japan.

It was a staple track when disco started to boom and really got the crowd going.

I also recommend singing and dancing to it at karaoke for a fun time.

You’ve Got A FriendCarol King

Carol, who can sing acoustic love songs with aching poignancy.

The difficulty level is quite high, but it’s a perfect choice to challenge yourself—a masterpiece among masterpieces.

Her voice is a bit husky, so it might be hard to get close to her sound.

Still, if you lean into the mood, you might be able to bring out that sense of bittersweetness.
