thrillHotei Tomoyasu

Included on the 1996 album “King & Queen.” Born in 1962.
A guitarist and singer from Gunma Prefecture.
Although it’s used as Egashira 2:50’s theme on a TV show, it’s by no means the kind of song you’d just play for laughs; I think it’s a masterpiece where the aggressive guitar sound and Hotei’s shouted vocals fit together remarkably well.
KISS MEHimuro Kyosuke

Included on the 1993 album “Memories Of Blue.” Used in a commercial for Boutique JOY.
Born in 1960, a musician from Gunma Prefecture.
It’s a cool-sounding track, featuring an up-tempo, aggressive rhythm and a melody grounded in a lyrical, melancholic rock sound.
Hold Me TonightTahara Toshihiko

Included on the 1988 album “Dancin’.” Theme song for the drama “Kyōshi Binbin Monogatari.” Born in 1961.
An idol singer from Yamanashi Prefecture.
With its upbeat, briskly unfolding rhythm and pop, danceable melody, this is the kind of song that naturally makes your body move as you listen.
Plan for the Indianization of JapanKinniku Shoujo Tai

Included on the 1989 album “Neko no Tebukuro.” Used as the CM song for Cheerio Corporation’s “Cheerio.” A four-piece rock band formed in 1982.
You can’t help but wonder why lyrics like these are set to such a cool rock melody with an up-tempo rhythm and hard-edged guitar sound.
Still, it’s fine because it’s fun to listen to (lol).
Can’t Stop the RomanticC-C-B

Included on the 1985 album “Suteki na Beat.” Theme song for the drama “Maido Osawagase Shimasu.” A four-piece rock band formed in 1982.
Daisuke Naito, the WBC world flyweight champion, used it as his entrance song.
This is the only song among their works that they did not perform themselves during recording.
Season in the SunTUBE

Included on the 1986 album “THE SEASON IN THE SUN.” Used in Kirin’s “Kirin Bin Nama” TV commercial.
A four-member rock band from Kanagawa Prefecture that debuted in 1985.
Set to an upbeat, open-flowing rhythm and a bright, cheerful melody line, the high-tone vocals make this a track brimming with summertime vibes.
It’s fine.Urufuruzu

Wulfuls is the rock band that gives everyone a boost, right? “Eenennen” was created to celebrate the return of John B.
Chopper, who had left the band for a time.
Its lyrics, which fully affirm who you are, give courage to everyone.
It’s guaranteed to hit home for men in their 40s in middle management! It’s a number that lets you blow off steam by singing it at karaoke while also encouraging those who listen.
If you’re unsure what to pick for karaoke, definitely add this song to your repertoire.
