Zutto Mayonaka de Iinoni, a band with a catchy style that enjoys immense popularity among teenage girls, has released a new song titled “Binetsu-ma.” While the vocal range required is fairly broad, the real challenge lies elsewhere.

Most of the high notes in this track are sung using a whisper voice, a breathy vocal technique.

Producing it momentarily isn’t an issue, but singing in whisper voice throughout demands substantial diaphragm control, making this a song with a high overall level of difficulty.

A song that gently portrays the sorrow of love and the changes of the heart strikes a perfect balance between wistfulness and resignation.

It delicately depicts two people who were once close gradually growing apart, using everyday scenes like pro wrestling and ramen as a lens.

Chosen as a theme for au’s Santaro commercial series and later included on the 2018 album HOUSE, the track is further brought to life in its music video, which features actor Ryuya Wakaba and conveys a cinematic atmosphere that beautifully captures the song’s world.

Embracing the hearts of those who try to look forward while carrying the pain of heartbreak, it resonates as a quintessential yonige coming-of-age song.

Drop’s’ “Kowashite” is characterized by a guitar sound with a mature, understated cool.

The tones from their Telecaster and Les Paul add just the right flavor.

Sung in a low register with a husky edge from the rhythm section, this is a song that both women and men can sing—and it’s guaranteed to fire up the crowd at karaoke.
