Let’s trade kisses instead of talking about love.NEW!WANDS
This is the fifth single, released on April 17, 1993, and a signature song of WANDS’ second phase that reached No.
1 on the Oricon charts and sold over a million copies.
Lyrics by Sho Uesugi, music by Tetsuro Oda, arrangement by Masao Akashi.
It was used in a Boutique JOY commercial—a fresh, up-tempo rock number.
Since WANDS’ songs have parts that sit relatively high, be careful not to strain your throat by pushing your voice too hard.
Before singing, at the moment you inhale, lift your eyebrows and facial muscles.
It’s very important to keep that expression all the way through; doing so will help the melody transitions and high notes come out very smoothly!
FriendNEW!Ketsumeishi
A classic ballad that served as the ending theme for TV Asahi’s “JAPAN COUNTDOWN,” it sings of friendship and parting with friends going their separate ways, while looking ahead with hope for the future.
It resonated with many people during the end of youth and graduation season, and the music video features an emotional story starring model Kaito.
The song itself hardly goes into high notes, so you can likely sing it in a steady, understated manner.
Since it’s a hip-hop ballad, there’s rap as well.
If you focus on coming in clearly at the start and delivering the rap with intention, it’s easier to lock into the rhythm.
And then there are the high notes from around the last four minutes—keep time with your body and place your voice so it locks in with the melody!
I’ll walk home.NEW!Saitō Kazuyoshi
This is the opening theme of Fuji TV’s “Ponkikkies,” which I was also watching at the time.
It’s a classic from 1994 that’s loved by both kids and adults, depicting everyday scenes with a lively tempo and a bright melody.
It’s also known as the song from Suntory’s “Zen” commercial, and it holds a kind of motivational anthem position, cheerfully portraying people commuting to work and school.
The overall vocal range is F3–A4, which is quite modest, and if you can use falsetto well, it should be easy for anyone to sing.
If you take a breath between each phrase, you should be able to make it to the end without running out of air.
It’s a refreshing song, so definitely try singing it at karaoke.

thrillNEW!Hotei Tomoyasu
“Thrill,” also famous as Egashira 2:50’s entrance song.
Released in October 1995 as the fifth single, it’s one of Tomoyasu Hotei’s signature tracks that topped the Oricon chart.
Blending a driving rock sound with pop sensibilities, it enjoyed great popularity as the first release of his solo career after Guitarhythm ended.
You’ll want to avoid stumbling over the well-known opening lyrics.
In particular, the “h” sounds push out a lot of breath and become quite difficult when delivered like a tongue twister, so try singing with a smaller mouth shape to avoid over-enunciating.
Right before the first chorus, in the shout-like section, clearly articulating each word should help your voice come out satisfyingly.
Rose of PassionNEW!THE BLUE HEARTS
Released on July 25, 1990, this signature song—written and composed by vocalist Hiroto Kōmoto—became the band’s first to reach No.
1 on the Oricon chart.
It was used as the theme song for the TBS drama “High School Graffiti 2” and in commercials, and its driving punk rock sound and upbeat lyrics have continued to be loved across generations.
A distinctive feature is that the chorus appears only once in the latter half of the song, which I think really hits listeners hard.
I want to sing solidly building up to that chorus.
By the way, I always thought the beginning was the chorus, so I was surprised when I realized it wasn’t…! The opening is also very important, and it seems best to sing it clearly and crisply.
to youMONGOL800
It’s an upbeat band song, and thanks in part to being featured in a Lion “TOP” commercial, it’s become known across many generations.
The song expresses a strong desire to see the one you love, making it a classic often sung as a wedding performance.
The key isn’t very high, so it’s an easy song to sing at karaoke, too.
Like a white cloudsaruganseki
People who watched the TV show ‘Susume! Denpa Shonen’ back then were probably listening to Saruganseki’s ‘Shiroi Kumo no Yō ni.’ It was a hugely popular song by a comedy duo that became a million-seller.
With a fresh, folk-duo vibe and stable melody, it’s easy to sing! Let’s all sing it together while reminiscing about the ’90s.
