I want to get drunk aloneIshihara Junko

Junko Ishihara “Hitori Yoitakute” (I Want to Get Drunk Alone) — first chorus
I want to get drunk aloneIshihara Junko

Ishihara Junko’s heartbreaking masterpiece “Hitori Yoitakute” portrays the pain of lost love.

Like Hitomi Ishikawa’s “Amagi-goe,” it features a melody that is both wistful and passionate.

In contrast to the passionate melody, however, the vocal line in this piece is crafted to be very simple.

There are few kobushi (ornamental turns) and no drastic rises and falls in pitch.

With careful attention to pitch control, you should be able to aim for a high score.

For those who want to sing it even better, try adding a breathy quality to the K-row consonants to emphasize dynamics.

God Does Not Play Dice “Spark” - [Official Lyric Video]
sparkKami wa saikoro o furanai

The band Kami wa Saikoro wo Furanai, known for their pop-rock-centered sound, has been gaining popularity.

In recent times, they’ve shifted toward a somewhat louder, heavier sound, and that characteristic is evident in Hibana as well.

This work leans toward a slightly Japanese-style modern rock reminiscent of Tsubakiya Quartet, exuding a sensual atmosphere throughout.

Because falsetto appears, it’s not the easiest song to sing, but its mid-tempo pace and orthodox, Japanese-style vocal lines that evoke the lineage of kayōkyoku make it perfect for aiming at a top score.

sunflowerFukuhara Miho

Miho Fukuhara is a singer whose main genres are soul and R&B.

Her warm, profound voice captivates listeners.

“Himawari” is a moving ballad filled with the longing to meet a childhood friend who has already passed away, just one more time.

Tracing memories of playing together as children, the lyrics tighten your chest as each passing season brings those moments back.

And as time moves on and you grow through various experiences into adulthood, there’s a bittersweet ache in wondering how that childhood friend would see the person you’ve become.

Along with a cute, gently soothing tune, “Himawari Sun Taiso” is an exercise routine that lets even small children move their whole bodies without strain.

The lyrics and call-and-response shouts like “Good morning,” “Yoo-hoo,” and “Ready, set, go!” are fun for everyone to say together, making it easy for both kids and adults to join in with smiles.

The choreography begins with actions like peekaboo and is full of movements that make children look especially adorable.
