Starry Sky OrchestraMizuno Atsu
When you want to liven up the mood with a happy Vocaloid song, “Stellar Night Orchestra” is perfect.
This piece was written by Vocaloid producer Atsu Mizuno for the in-game unit Wonderlands×Showtime in a smartphone game.
Since it’s a song about the joy of meeting your friends, it’s also great for expressing gratitude.
And because it was originally sung by multiple people, it’s fun to sing together with friends at karaoke.
Give it a try and sing it with energy!
Akiko of the Starry SkyHikawa Kiyoshi
The song Akiko Under the Starry Sky was released in 2002.
It came out as the fifth single, but since the B-side, Denden-mushi, was used as the ending theme for an NHK drama, I imagine not many people remember this A-side track.
Despite that somewhat unfortunate fate, it’s actually a very easy enka song to sing.
The tempo is mid-tempo for enka, but it features an unusually large number of long tones, and those long tones are simply held with vibrato, making them very easy.
There are no complex kobushi that move up and down by three or four notes, so anyone familiar with enka should be able to sing it with ease.

It’s a pop song that contemplates one’s existence and shine while gazing up at the city night sky.

The lyrics, co-written by Masato Nagai and Ryutaro Sumi, carry a powerful determination to shine through one’s own strength, resonating deeply.
Its driving melody and passionate vocals are also captivating.
Perfect for those moments when you want to embrace the feeling of “living true to yourself.”

The following year, she won the Grand Champion title at the Kachinuki Kayō Championship national tournament, after which she began studying under composer Akihito Shikata, who had served as a judge, and made her debut in 2000.
Her greatest appeal is, above all, her exceptional vocal ability.
Unlike idol-style enka singers, she possesses solid technique, allowing her to effortlessly deliver even highly complex kobushi (ornamental vocal turns).

Theme of Honda Construction CompanyShibusa Shirazu
This is live footage of Shibusashirazu, a funk band born from Japan’s underground that keeps creating freely and joyfully, unbound by anything.
Their passionate beats possess a primal beauty expressed through the entire body, and the real allure of their performances is that you should hear them with your ears, feel them with your body, and receive them with your heart before trying to understand them in words.
They are a band that embodies the idea that what moves people is not logic, but the heart.
