[Duet Harmony Songs] Songs That Feel Great to Harmonize To (81–90)
March of the LivingShiina Ringo to AI
The song “March of the Living” by Sheena Ringo and AI.
It’s based on jazz but features a somewhat irregular structure, with a feel reminiscent of Afro-Cuban music.
The vocal line, rich in semitones, may sound unfamiliar, but since it stays within the low-mid to high-mid range, it isn’t difficult to produce.
The harmony is clearly divided into two parts, making it relatively easy to practice.
Because there are many off-beat accents, be sure to sing with a strong sense of groove.
High-Purity RomanceKinKi Kids
This single was released in 2022, the year KinKi Kids celebrated the 25th anniversary of their debut.
Its sound is centered on piano, with brass and strings layered in, creating a gently soothing atmosphere.
It feels like a warm, encouraging song that cherishes human connections while teaching us to keep moving forward.
The arrangement showcases each of their voices, and at key moments like the chorus they progress in harmony, making their mutually enhancing vocals a beautiful highlight.
UFOpingu redii
This was Pink Lady’s sixth single overall, released in December 1977, and it’s their biggest hit.
As of December 2022, anyone in their fifties or older has almost certainly heard this classic Showa-era hit! The song is performed by Pink Lady’s duo, Mie and Kei.
Most of it is structured in unison, with both of them singing the same melody, but only the beginning of the B section features their harmony, which gives the song a sense of expanded breadth.
That harmony part is just a very simple lower-harmony line, so most listeners can probably pick it up from the original and sing along.
Of course, the best way to enjoy it is not to overthink it—just learn the choreography too, sing and dance, and have fun.
Surely somewhereTUBE
This is TUBE’s 28th single, released in August 1998.
It was used in the drama “Sekai de Ichiban Papa ga Suki” and reportedly sold over 400,000 copies.
While TUBE is often associated with songs that evoke images of “summer” and “the sun,” “Itsuka Dokokade” is crafted as a beautiful ballad with a very poignant tone.
As for the harmony parts in this track, starting from the second chorus, a very simple harmony a third above the main vocal is added to the chorus.
The harmony itself isn’t particularly difficult, but the main melody is already quite high for a male vocal song, and the harmony goes even higher.
If the key is challenging, consider lowering the key in karaoke, and be careful not to strain your voice by forcing the high notes.
blue skyTHE BLUE HEARTS
This is THE BLUE HEARTS’ eighth single, released on June 21, 1989.
It’s also a re-cut track from their third album, TRAIN-TRAIN.
Many songs by THE BLUE HEARTS feature clear, catchy melodies, making them great for singing along—not just this one.
In terms of harmonizing, this song is structured so that it works simply by adding a straightforward upper harmony to the main melody.
So it’s a perfect piece for anyone who’s hesitated to try harmonizing—give it a shot.
You’ll surely discover how fun harmonizing can be!
At the End of the Cloud PathCocco
This is Cocco’s fourth single, released on October 7, 1998.
The harmony part appears in the chorus, and at first listen the overall sound production makes the arrangement seem very complex.
But if you listen closely, it’s actually a two-part chorus with a lower harmony under the main melody.
If you can pick out and copy the harmony part, it shouldn’t be too difficult to harmonize.
If your goal is simply to recreate the feel of the original track, I think even having two or more people sing the main melody in unison could be quite effective.
Depending on the situation, that might be a fun way to enjoy it too!

At that timeyuzu
Released as a digital-only single by Yuzu on May 25, 2020.
It’s a very refreshing track that feels quintessentially them, with a pleasant, up-tempo acoustic guitar strum.
Yuzu are known for their highly sophisticated harmony work, but the harmonies in this song are arranged mainly around relatively simple upper harmonies against the main melody, making it perfect for enjoying harmonizing at karaoke.
You might find it a bit challenging to pick out the harmony parts, but I hope you’ll give it a try at karaoke and recreate those lovely harmonies.
It could also be fun to enjoy it with just an acoustic guitar in hand instead of karaoke!
