HoshiaiRefutī Monsutā P
Hoshi-ai is a song I want to listen to when Tanabata comes around.
I think many women can sing it in the original key.
Of course, if some parts are in a difficult range, it’s best to adjust to a key that’s comfortable for you.
When you sing, don’t just blast it out with your voice—use your breath well, and aim for about 60% breath and 40% voice to let the sound flow; that will suit the vibe.
The start of the chorus tends to get tense, so use your hands to guide the sound upward as if you’re resonating in your head.
If you raise your hands above your head or in front of you and wave them lightly to the rhythm while singing, your voice will start to resonate where your hands are, and it should feel easier to sing.
If you tend to get tense, give it a try.
Seriously Only You (Let’s Get Married)Takeuchi Mariya

It’s also well known that Ryuichi Sakamoto took part in the intro performance, and that it was used as the image song for Kagome’s “Libera” in 1984 and as a Nissan “Cefiro” commercial song starting in August 1994.
