1 on the Oricon singles chart with this song.
It’s a slow-tempo track that’s very easy to sing, yet unforgettable once you hear it.
It carries a slightly lonely feeling, but I think it’s a wonderful song that brings to mind someone special.
Poem of SunlightLe Couple
This is Le Couple’s “Hidamari no Uta,” which left a strong impression on many people after being used in the hugely popular TV drama Under One Roof 2.
The lyrics’ sense of modesty perfectly matches the song’s atmosphere.
Please sing it with a delicate, heartrending touch!
EverythingMISIA
A female singer known as one of Asia’s leading vocalists, armed with an emotional voice and expressive power spanning five octaves—MISIA—released this as her seventh single.
Chosen as the theme song for the TV drama “Yamato Nadeshiko,” it became a massive hit and the best-selling single by a female artist released in the 2000s.

For women in their 40s, it’s an immortal classic that will likely bring back scenes from the drama as they sing.

Song of LifeTakeuchi Mariya
This song was created in 2009 as the theme for the NHK drama “Pioneers,” with lyrics written by Mariya Takeuchi under the pen name Miyabi.
“Inochi no Uta,” which includes spoken-style elements, is a ballad designed to be sung expressively without straining the vocal range.
The tempo is a relaxed 136, making it nice to sing each phrase carefully.
In particular, for the A section, if you connect the words smoothly and articulate the final vowel sounds clearly, the storytelling quality becomes stronger and the song improves as a whole.
There is a brief high note before the last chorus, but if you belt it you’ll end up using your throat, so try singing it lightly, almost like humming.
for a long timeKiroro
Kiroro’s major-label debut song “Nagail Aida.” It’s a gentle ballad where the clear vocals blend beautifully with the soft tones of the piano.
With little dynamic variation throughout and a calm tempo, it’s an easy piece to sing at karaoke.
The lyrics, which express tenderness and frustration, speak directly to the feelings of being in love.
Since karaoke displays the lyrics on the screen, listeners can easily immerse themselves in the song’s world, too.
Wrap everyone in that gentle atmosphere.
