An addictive up-tempo track themed around lovesickness, this song reveals a new side of Takanori Iwata.

Featured on his second album ARTLESS, it was released on March 5, 2024, with a colorful, artful music video dropping the day before.

The lyrics, which portray love’s dependency and madness, strike deeply at the listener’s heart.

Iwata reportedly created this piece by pouring in his “unadorned, genuine feelings.” Its rhythmic groove and addictive lyrics are a perfect match—sure to light up any karaoke session.

It’s a must-listen for anyone troubled by love or looking for fresh music.

Aimyon’s song “I Want to Tell You I Love You.” It’s a pop track with an urban, stylish vibe.

Its slightly languid atmosphere comes from a chord progression known as the “Maru-Sa progression,” which became famous through fellow female singer-songwriter Sheena Ringo’s “Marunouchi Sadistic.” Incidentally, the “Maru-Sa progression” is said to originate from the jazz classic “Just the Two of Us,” so dropping this bit of trivia might make you seem even more musically savvy!

Love SongUru

A song written as the theme for the drama “My Prince,” starring Manami Higa.

It’s a love song that paints the feelings in one’s heart dramatically, and it also sounds like a cheering anthem for those who devote themselves earnestly to each day.

Uru’s tender, enveloping voice and the warm, soothing melody resonate deeply, creating a number that leaves both the singer and the listener feeling comfortable and at peace.

If you sing it with your feelings for someone special, there’s no doubt your emotions will come across.

A Bouquet for YouUtada Hikaru

Since her debut in 1999, Hikaru Utada has been a driving force in the J-POP scene.

The song she released in 2016, which was also used for the NHK morning drama series Toto Nee-chan, is Hanataba o Kimi ni (A Bouquet for You).

It expresses a sincere feeling for someone you can no longer meet.

Her clear, translucent vocals convey that emotion over a sound that blends strings and synth tones.

As a song that gently sings to a cherished person, it’s perfect for events like ceremony wrap-ups.

Infuse the everyday-life-inspired lyrics with feeling and deliver a supple, graceful performance.

DRESSING ROOMnatori

Born in 2003, Natori began posting songs on TikTok in his teens, and his 2022 release “Overdose” became a massive viral hit that quickly raised his profile as a much-anticipated singer-songwriter.

Whether it’s a stylish city-pop-inspired track or an intense, rock-tinged number, his unique low register—rich with a distinctive allure—anchors his vocals and melodies, creating a world that’s unmistakably his.

For those who want to sing like Natori, I recommend “DRESSING ROOM,” released in February 2025.

It’s a chic track with a characteristically danceable, groovy production and sultry melodies—perfect for a nighttime drive.

Because the pitch sits low, it’s especially great for people who struggle with high notes and want to give it a try.

The rapid phrasing and the way the lyrics fit the melody, as well as the rhythmic feel, aren’t exactly easy, but if you listen to the original repeatedly and let both the melody and rhythm sink into your body, you’ll be well-prepared for the performance!
