Because the sun will rise againRyokushokushakai
This is Ryokuoushoku Shakai’s fifth single, released on April 20, 2022.
It was written as the theme song for the Toho-distributed animated film Crayon Shin-chan: Mononoke Ninja Chinpūden.
At first listen, it may come across as an upbeat, catchy pop song, but if you dig deeper into the composition, you’ll notice that the melody—especially in the chorus—features sharp jumps in pitch throughout.
Many people might realize it’s quite a formidable challenge for casual karaoke.
It could be a good idea to thoroughly review the original track—focusing on the high notes in particular—and plan out your vocal approach, such as which techniques to use and where, before you sing.
Keep the delivery bright and energetic from start to finish.
