Wish Upon a Star (2018 Summer Samba Version)doriimingu

This is an arranged version of a fan favorite, “Hoshi ni Inoru” (“Praying to the Stars”).

The original is a moving ballad sung tenderly, evoking a winter night sky and Christmas.

In contrast, this one boldly transforms it into a lively summer samba arrangement with a fun, sunny beat.

Even so, the lyrics and parts of the arrangement still evoke winter, making it a rather unique track.

“Leave Me Alone” resonates with a unique sound that crosses over rock and electronica.

Created in 2022 by Nanahoshi Orchestra, a Vocaloid producer who is also active as a guitarist, the track features GUMI’s light, agile vocals layered over an urban-tinged soundscape.

Many listeners may relate to the honest feeling of wanting to be alone while also yearning for someone to stay close.

The trick is to sing along rhythmically, leaning into the rhyme scheme! Why not try singing this cute yet heartrending Vocaloid song?

Let’s go see the stars.Namioka Koutarou

If you’re looking for a song that gently speaks to a friend, I recommend “Hoshi o Mi ni Ikouze” by singer-songwriter Kotaro Namioka, released in 2018.

It delivers a warm message to friends that fits perfectly with natural scenery and emotional moments.

With just acoustic guitar and vocals, it’s also great for focusing on a lyric video.

It’s a track overflowing with feelings for friends who’ve been with you through both good times and hard times.

Let the buoyant acoustic sound take you back through the memorable moments you shared with your friends.

A heartwarming ballad that offers comfort to those in long-distance relationships.

Vickeblanka’s soft yet powerful vocals evoke both the chill of winter and the warmth of the heart.

Released in October 2021, it was written as the theme song for NHK General’s Drama 10 series “Gunjō Ryōiki” (Ultramarine Territory).

Inspired by the Big Dipper, the song expresses deep feelings for a lover far away.

Even when apart, your hearts are one—this track makes you feel exactly that.

If you’re in a long-distance relationship, be sure to give it a listen.

Hoshimachi Suiseibibideba

Popular VTuber Suisei Hoshimachi.

Not only is she active as a streamer, but she’s also a major Hololive talent who enjoys immense popularity with both her videos and her song covers.

Many teens and people in their twenties these days primarily listen to VTuber music, don’t they? With that in mind, I’d like to recommend “Bibideba.” It’s a somewhat challenging piece, but it blends coolness and cuteness, so you could say it lets you showcase both with a single song.

If you find the falsetto sections difficult, try lowering the key when you sing.

White ChristmasBingu Kurosubī

It’s a classic that blends lyrics longing for a snowy Christmas with Crosby’s warm baritone.

First featured in the 1942 film Holiday Inn, it gave hope to soldiers and families during the war.

It was so popular it topped the Billboard chart for 11 weeks, and reached No.

1 again in 1945 and 1946.

The 1947 re-recorded version remains widely cherished today.

It’s a song we’d love seniors who look forward to Christmas to listen to while reminiscing about the past.

Why not spend a special moment with this work, overflowing with nostalgia and warmth?

When the night is filled with falling starsFujifaburikku

On a Tanabata night when the stars shine beautifully, Fujifabric’s “Hoshifuru Yoru ni Nattara” makes you long to see the one you want to meet.

Included on the 2008 album TEENAGER, this song is packed with an overwhelming desire to be with someone precious.

If only I could see such a beautiful, breathtaking view together with that person… Isn’t that what anyone with someone dear to them can’t help but wish for? Once that thought takes hold, no matter what situation you’re in, you’ll want to rush out from where you are and go meet them, just to share that scenery together! It’s a song that captures the momentum of acting on impulse while letting you feel the bottomless love that drives those actions.
