Ring the bell!DREAMS COME TRUE
This is DREAMS COME TRUE’s (hereafter, DCT) 50th single, released on July 10, 2013.
Since it was also used as the theme song for Fuji TV’s “Emergency Room 24 Hours” (Season 5), many of you may have heard it there.
DCT’s vocalist Miwa Yoshida is widely praised for her vocal ability, so some of you might wonder, “Can someone like me, who isn’t good at singing, really sing this?” However, the vocal melody doesn’t cover a particularly wide range and is relatively even, making it quite approachable even for those who aren’t confident singers.
The tempo is a bit on the heavy side, so be careful not to rush ahead when you sing.
The One and Only Flower in the WorldSMAP
A classic hit by SMAP, the beloved national idol group.
This song offers an uplifting affirmation that each person is special.
Released as a single in March 2003, it topped the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.
It was also used as the theme song for the drama “Boku no Ikiru Michi,” starring Tsuyoshi Kusanagi, earning widespread support across generations.
With a melody that doesn’t require a wide vocal range, it’s easy to sing at karaoke and cherished by people of all ages.
For those leading busy lives, we hope this song helps you reconnect with your true self—sure to lift your spirits.
Turn the roulette of fateZARD
A supreme song woven from lyrical lyrics that capture the subtleties of life and a light, buoyant melody.
While questioning the role of fate’s coincidences and the meaning of our choices, it gently reminds us of the importance of facing forward and living on.
Composed by Seiichiro Kuribayashi, it beautifully harmonizes ZARD’s heartwarming message with a fresh, breezy sound.
Since its release in September 1998, it has been beloved as an opening theme for the anime Detective Conan and was also included on the album ZARD BEST The Single Collection: Kiseki.
It’s an encouraging anthem recommended for those who, even amid uncertainty, want to take a step forward and for anyone who wishes to move ahead without fearing change.
Dancing HeroOginome Yōko
Thanks to the success of the Tōmioaka High School Dance Club, the song “Dancing Hero” has come back into the spotlight.
For those in their forties, it’s likely a nostalgic tune you remember from childhood.
While its upbeat disco sound is striking, the vocal line is actually quite simple.
That’s because the song never ventures into high notes and is sung entirely in the mid to low range.
It can be hard to project your voice at drinking gatherings, but this is a song you can sing comfortably even in those situations.
Blue WaterMorikawa Miho
Miho Morikawa is an artist who gained popularity for her cool vocal timbre and stable vocal performance—so much so that it’s hard to believe she started as an idol.
Her signature song “Blue Water” is famous as the theme song for the anime Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water and has attracted a great deal of popularity.
Although it’s a powerful piece, the vocal range is actually narrow, and the melody line has relatively few ups and downs, making it easier to sing than it sounds.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.
Green Que Sera SeraOka Midori
It’s a fun, upbeat Reiwa-era rhythm kayō masterpiece that makes any Japanese person want to clap along and start dancing! “Midori no Que Sera Sera” is a song released by Midori Oka in 2021, and as the title suggests, you can sing it comfortably with a carefree “que sera sera—whatever will be, will be” feeling.
The instantly catchy chorus sticks after one listen, and if everyone in your karaoke group sings it together, it’ll definitely liven up the room.
The signature enka vocal flourishes—like heavy kobushi and wide vibrato—are kept modest, and the more natural delivery makes it approachable even for those who feel unsure about singing traditional enka.
First and foremost, have fun and sing along to the cheerful rhythm!
Fade OutKoizumi Kyoko
Among those in their early 50s, many may have admired Kyoko Koizumi’s looks and personality.
In that case, I recommend Fade Out.
This work is characterized by the heavy synthesizers that were common in the late ’80s.
You might perceive it as dance music, but the vocal line is gentle, like a blend of kayōkyoku and jazz, so it should be easy to sing.
The very long rests also make it easy to perform.
