A single life for the two of usYamamoto Jōji
Speaking of Joji Yamamoto, he’s also famous for being a devoted husband, and he has released many classic songs that portray a man’s clumsy yet pure and gentle love for his partner.
“Futari de Hitotsu no Jinsei wo” (Two People, One Life) is one of them—a single released in 2016, featuring lyrics by Takashi Taka, composition by Tetsuya Gen, and arrangement by Toshiaki Maeda, the trio well known for Yamamoto’s works.
It’s a quintessential, straight-down-the-line enka number bursting with Yamamoto’s signature style, so experienced singers should have no trouble with it.
Beginners, however, may find the kobushi ornamentation and the sultry, powerful low notes challenging.
The difficulty level as enka goes is on the lower side, and if you want to impress your partner by nailing a performance, choosing this as your first practice song is a great idea!

For those looking for a classic enka song with a wistful vibe but in a bright major key rather than a minor one, I highly recommend “Fuurin.” It’s a single released by Joji Yamamoto in 2006, and everything from the song’s structure and melody line to Yamamoto’s slightly restrained vocal delivery exemplifies true enka.
The transition from the very low notes in the first half to the build-up into the chorus—and then the climb from the low register to the final, soaring melody—can make it easy to slip off pitch, so it’s worth practicing those sections consciously.
The overall difficulty is on the lower side, and I’d encourage enka beginners to give it a try.
RevengeMy Hair is Bad
This is a searing song that portrays the way the sorrow of a broken heart turns into resentment and anger.
Included on the album “mothers,” released in November 2017, the track tells a breakup story delivered with the raw emotion characteristic of My Hair is Bad.
It traces the emotional shift—from happy memories with a lover, to a sudden parting, and ultimately to a vow of “revenge,” as the title suggests—set against a propulsive melody.
The song vividly captures the subtle nuances of someone grappling with anger and bitterness after a breakup, leaving a strong impression of a complex state of mind where deep sorrow and love are intertwined.
When you can’t recover from a sense of loss, listening to this track may help you sublimate those emotions.
