Oath of the EyesImori Miyuki
Miyuki Imori is well known for her cheerful persona on variety shows, but her career began as an idol singer from Shimonita, Gunma Prefecture.
In 1984, she won the Grand Prix at the 9th HoriPro Talent Scout Caravan, which had about 120,000 participants—a true Cinderella story! She made her debut in April 1985 and helped color the idol pop scene of the 1980s.
One of her signature songs is Hitomi no Chikai, for which she received a commendation in the Newcomer Emerald Award.
For those who only know her as a TV personality, I hope you’ll experience the fresh charm of Miyuki Imori, the singer!

Snowsheep is a solo unit centered around vocalist SAHO, who hails from Gifu Prefecture.
It was formed in 2009 with composer and arranger Yusuke Mochida.
Their music is characterized by an organic feel.
They made their major debut in 2010 with a digital single, releasing tracks such as “Yomikake no Hon” (Half-Read Book) and “Polaroid.” The greatest appeal lies in SAHO’s clear, expansive vocals—unexpected from her slender frame—and lyrics that resonate with listeners.
It’s perfect for those seeking comfortable, intimate music that would fit right into a café setting.
Soliloquy LonlinaONE OK ROCK
A masterpiece where Taka’s expressive power truly shines, “Hitorigoto Lonelina.” The vocal range spans roughly mid1 F to hi C#, so it isn’t especially wide.
For women, it falls within a comfortable range.
Even for men, it’s not impossible since you can lower the key to some extent.
The vocal line is fairly monotonic throughout, making it generally easy to sing.
However, near the end of the opening chorus, there’s a shouted sustained note an octave higher.
Because it’s taken up an octave, it’s hard to nail the pitch, and it also demands vocal endurance, so this section definitely requires solid practice.
Emergency exit — I tried running away.natori
A thrilling track where the urgency of being chased collides with a desperate wish to break free.
It’s a song by singer-songwriter Natori, released in August 2025.
The track expresses the theme of escaping a suffocating reality, set to a dark yet fast-paced sound.
The horror-tinged animated music video is another highlight.
It’s a song you’ll want to dive into on nights weighed down by a sense of confinement.
soliloquyhachiwari
Chiikawa is a popular anime loved by a wide range of people, from elementary school children to adults.
The song “Hitorigotsu” is sung by Hachiware, a character in the series.
Given the time slot it airs in, most elementary schoolers have probably heard it at least once.
The piece is characterized by a very simple vocal line.
The pitch movement is very gentle and the range is quite narrow, so even upper-grade students whose voices may be unstable due to voice change can sing it without any problem.
Human beingmarashii
An energetic number that races by like a whirlwind of piano.
This piece is by Marasy, who is also widely known as a pianist, and it was released in August 2025.
The arrangement is by Akita Horie, known as kemu.
With Kagamine Rin’s edgy vocals, it powerfully sings of the struggles and hopes of “being human,” delivering a message that affirms one’s existence and deeply resonates with listeners.
It’s a Vocaloid track that gives a strong push to anyone striving with all their might.

Written specifically for them by singer-songwriter Motohiro Hata, this medium-tempo ballad weaves hopes for growth and heartfelt feelings for a loved one—like a small bud dreaming of the day it blooms in its own color.
Serving as the theme song for the film “Mt.
Fuji, Coffee, and the Equation of Happiness,” it warmly accompanies the story.
It’s a gentle work that softly lights a lamp in your heart when you take a new step forward.
