When I turn around, the Sea of JapanItsuki Hiroshi
A gem of a song that portrays a person who, despite inner confusion and loneliness, still strives to face forward, set against the desolate winter scenery of the Sea of Japan.
Released in March 2005, this work features lyrics by Hiroshi Itsuki and novelist Hiroyuki Itsuki, from whom the singer’s stage name is derived.
Hiroshi Itsuki’s emotionally rich vocals harmonize beautifully with sentiments of longing for one’s hometown and the resolve not to forget past love, earning the song 14th place on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.
It was also performed at the 56th NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen, and the album “Hiroyuki Itsuki & Hiroshi Itsuki Song Collection ~If You Look Back, the Sea of Japan~” was released.
It is a song that offers comfort to those living away from their hometowns, inviting listeners to reflect on the places of their memories.
Wind cherry blossomSatō Akemi
This is a distinctly Japanese lyrical song that portrays ways of living through contrasts.
Akemi Sato’s clear, translucent voice deftly conveys the song’s delicate emotions.
Created by the renowned duo of lyricist Takahiro Maeda and composer Shunichi Makaino, the piece was released in February 2025.
While celebrating the importance of living true to oneself, it movingly captures the profound expressive power of depicting life’s opposing emotions—joy and sorrow.
It’s a perfect track for moments when you want to pause in your daily life and reflect on yourself.
The graceful melody, harmonizing the tones of traditional Japanese instruments with modern arrangements, is also part of its charm.
FragileKasamura Tōta
This choral piece is captivating for its gentle piano melody and vocals that feel like they softly sit beside you and comfort your heart.
Composed by Tota Kasamura, it’s a Vocaloid version of a song provided to Little Glee Monster.
The lyrics portray a protagonist who, while struggling with self-loathing and loneliness, still tries to find hope—a depiction that tightens the chest.
Through the scene of looking up at the setting sun, the song gently speaks to the importance of accepting our emotional wavering and weaknesses just as they are.
The fusion of lyrics that feel as if they tell your own story and the beautiful harmonies resonates deeply with anyone carrying worries.
Shiranui Love TaleYashiro Aki
Speaking of Aki Yashiro, she’s known for her delicate vocals that make the most of her distinctive husky voice, but “Shiranui Jōwa” stands out in her catalog for its unusually powerful singing.
The defining feature of this piece is, above all, the opening line: it begins with clear enunciation and a strong vocal delivery, then unfolds into an emotionally rich performance as it moves toward the chorus.
Because the song emphasizes strength, there are fewer instances of kobushi—ornamental bends that require delicate control—so the overall difficulty is relatively low.
To my hometown…Yashiro Aki
Aki Yashiro’s classic “To My Hometown…” features a melody that strikingly balances brilliance and depth.
True to enka style, kobushi appear throughout.
Songs with many kobushi are generally hard to belt out, but that’s not the case here.
The kobushi in this piece are less a specialized technique unique to kobushi and more like strong vibrato—extensions of vibrato, so to speak.
Since this type of kobushi is far easier than the typical kind, the overall difficulty of the song is naturally lower.
While it doesn’t call for outright shouting, singing with a bit of strength will make the song sound more radiant, so give it a try.

fluffyHatsuboshi Gakuen
It’s a love song that captures the heart-fluttering feelings of a girl falling in love.
Created by the familiar Hatsuboshi Academy from the mobile game “Gakuen Idolmaster,” it was included on their second single, “Yellow Big Bang!,” released in March 2025.
Kotone Fujita’s refreshing vocals and the catchy melody resonate pleasantly.
It beautifully expresses the sparkle of romance shining through everyday life.
Give it a listen when you want to get in a romantic mood!
trendMaekawa Kiyoshi
“Fūchō” is a single released in 2024 by Kiyoshi Maekawa, who celebrated his 55th anniversary in 2023 and continues to be as active as ever.
Written by singer-songwriter Ryuun Nagai, the lyrics lament today’s prevailing “trends,” as the title suggests, while emphasizing the importance of caring for one another—something many people, not just middle-aged and older listeners, can relate to.
Thanks to Maekawa’s careful, expansive vocal delivery, the song conveys its message without feeling preachy, which is a real plus.
Although the key is low, making it approachable for those who struggle with high notes, the song actually spans a wide range; singing the firm, powerful low notes like Maekawa does can be surprisingly challenging.
If the pitch feels too low, try adjusting the key to find a range that suits your voice.
