Remioromen – March 9th (Music Video Short ver.)

Remioromen, who captivates many fans with heartfelt lyrics and melodies.

This song, created as a gift for a friend who had a wedding, was released in March 2005 as their seventh single.

It carries a message for those graduating or embarking on a new chapter in life, and it gained nationwide recognition after being used as an insert song in the drama “1 Litre of Tears.” The lyric “standing at the entrance to a new world” gently gives a push to those at a turning point in life.

With the warm tone of acoustic guitar, it’s the perfect song for anyone who wants to express gratitude to someone dear.

Above all, it’s an ideal choice for a long-awaited wedding.

Kana Nishino 'Torisetsu' MV (Short Ver.)

It’s such a truly adorable song.

If there’s a bride who relates to the lyrics, I’d love for her to sing it.

It would also be exciting to perform while playing footage of that kind of scene.

This is a song I’d prefer to be sung by a woman rather than a man.

Ring ~ I’m getting married today. ~ Wedding ver.Sawai Miku

Miku Sawai – Ring: “I’m getting married today.” (Wedding ver.)

This is an answer song to navy&ivory’s “Yubiwa” (“Ring”).

It feels like a song about a wonderful girl—strong, yet somehow delicate.

The lyrics as a reply to “Ring” are also very lovely, so I think it would be beautiful for the two of you to exchange them back and forth.

A surprise from a woman to a man like that might be wonderful, too.

Best FriendKiroro

Best Friend – Kiroro (Full)

Since it’s a song for friends, I think it will create a wonderful atmosphere if the bride and groom’s friends sing it.

It’s originally for a female vocalist, but I think it’s fine for a man to sing it too.

Rather than a solo singer-songwriter style, if you can play guitar, it would look cool to have several people do a guitar-accompanied performance together.

ButterflyKimura Kaera

Kaela Kimura “Butterfly” [short ver.]

This is a heartfelt song said to have been written by Kaela Kimura for her best friend when she got married.

The melody and tempo make it easy to sing in an acoustic style.

It’s a perfect song for the bride’s friends to sing to her.

Oh, and I think it would sound wonderful sung by a man, too.

Whenever. – Noriyuki Makihara (Full)

Makkī’s songs are loved by people of all ages and genders, and many of them are famous.

“No matter what, I want to hold on to the feeling that I can say I love what I love.” It’s a song I’d love the groom to sing to express his gratitude to the bride.

I think singing it with a steady, upbeat strumming pattern would be wonderful.
