Recommended ballad songs for junior high school students. Classic and popular Japanese songs (91–100)
Beautiful worldAimer

Singer-songwriter Aimer, known for her distinctive vocal style, has won widespread popularity.
In the Japanese music scene, isn’t she the queen of ballads? From her ballads, the song I especially recommend for middle schoolers is “Utsukushii Sekai” (“Beautiful World”).
It’s a classic J-pop ballad without complex melodic leaps, and the overall range is relatively narrow.
If you try to imitate Aimer’s vocal production, you might run out of breath, so try singing in your own natural style while focusing on keeping your pitch steady.
SakuraCrystal Kay

As her first single of 2016, Crystal Kay released her very first “sakura song.” The track portrays the tender, bittersweet romance between a high school boy and girl on the brink of graduation.
Its wistful, gentle melody slowly resonates in the listener’s heart.
A Little Love SongMONGOL800

The classic song “Chiisana Koi no Uta” is still loved by many people today.
Although it’s an older track released in 2001, it’s a curious song that continues to be highly popular among younger generations.
I think many current junior high school students also know this song.
The opening part sits very low in the register, so many people may feel it’s difficult.
However, that low delivery is primarily a vocal choice to make it sound good; if you’re aiming for a high score in karaoke, songs like this one with lots of low notes can actually be easier to sing.
Find the key that suits you and give it a try.
SunnyThe Back Horn

As you move through junior high and high school, I think you start becoming more aware of those around you.
There will be times when you can’t accept society’s rules or can’t reconcile things with yourself, and times when you can’t make good use of time alone.
I hope you listen to this song during your school years and remember it from time to time after you become an adult.
Bengal Tiger and Whiskey ~ everything is my guitarandymori

A song I recommend to help people realize that we’re being put into a box called “school” every day.
Do you feel like you’re not allowed to have your own opinions because you’re bound by school rules and unspoken norms? I believe the world is more than just “school,” and that it’s a place where self-expression is recognized.
This is a track filled with the rebellious spirit of youth.
