Hong Kong taxiCRAZY KEN BAND
When it comes to Japanese funk bands, many people are likely to think of them.
This is Crazy Ken Band, formed in 1997 with vocalist Ken Yokoyama at the center.
They have produced numerous stylish, mature songs with a touch of Showa-era retro flair.
In 2005, Tiger & Dragon, which was used as a TV drama theme song, became a major hit.
Their passionate, masculine vocals seize listeners’ hearts and never let go.

Holy Snowy NightKobukuro
Kobukuro’s Christmas song “Holy Snowy Night” evokes a classical atmosphere.
It’s included on their 2003 album Straight.
It was supposed to be a Christmas spent with a loved one, but things don’t quite go as planned… Even so, the way they try to make it a wonderful Christmas for just the two of them leaves you with a warm feeling.
It may also reflect a forward-looking resolve to keep going together, no matter what happens.
It’s a recommended song for spending Christmas with someone special.
White TreeShido
Even when you know it’s coming, it’s the kind of chorus that makes you want to sing.
The melody is steady and very easy to sing.
If a bold, spirited boy sings it coolly, it could really set a great vibe in the moment.
But the lyrics are actually about a heartbreaking breakup.
For the sake of the two who parted, I want to shout “Merry Christmas” at the end of the song.
Hollowshiyui
It’s a track that blends a futuristic, dark sound with deep emotion.
Released in October 2024, it was chosen as the opening theme for the anime “Demon King 2099.” Shiyui’s transparent, luminous vocals pair perfectly with Keina Suda’s delicate sound design.
With a cyberpunk-inspired worldview, the lyrics strongly express themes of loss and salvation.
If you listen when you’re feeling weighed down, it might give you courage.
HometigilistJanīzu WEST
Hometigirisuto, with a touch of kayōkyoku flavor, is a fun, high-energy track that’s quintessentially Johnny’s WEST, released in January 2019.
It showers praise on people who work hard every day! The members’ Kansai-dialect talk woven into the instrumental break is also absolutely top-notch! It’s highly recommended when you want to spend your time feeling happy.
Let’s all heap on the praise together!
fireflysupittsu
Spitz’s classic song “Hotaru.” Although it tends to be overshadowed because they have so many big hits, this track also became a nationwide success just like their other famous songs.
As a Spitz song, the key is inevitably high, but the vocal range is set relatively narrow compared to many of their tracks.
You don’t need to mimic Spitz’s singing style—one option is to lower the key and sing with a gritty, shouted delivery like Takeshi “Pistol” Takehara.
The vocal line itself is extremely catchy, so feel free to add an arrangement that suits you.
Ho! SummerTakkī & Tsubasa
The idol duo Tackey & Tsubasa, who gained popularity for their outstanding looks.
Their catchy musical style and overwhelmingly good visuals are still talked about as legendary even after their breakup.
Among their songs, one I especially recommend is Ho! Summer.
It’s a track built around a guitar riff that evokes Yosui Inoue’s Yume no Naka e and a vocal line reminiscent of ZIGGY’s GLORIA, giving the whole piece a bright atmosphere that makes you feel the blue summer sky.
