Let It BeThe Beatles

Let It BeThe Beatles

It’s a song everyone knows, but when I first listened to the Beatles, I was so blown away that I binge-listened to all their tracks.

Among them, I still can’t forget their signature masterpiece—the one that truly says “the Beatles”—and nothing has ever topped it for me.

It’s also an easy, memorable song, even for middle schoolers.

I Will Always Love YouWhitney Houston

This was a song used in The Bodyguard, and I remember watching it when I was in middle school.

It was so heartbreaking, and the song fit the movie perfectly—it moved me so much.

Even now, I’m brought to tears when I think about it.

I also remember it being played at a relative’s wedding.

Among Michael Jackson’s songs, this one is relatively easy to catch and has a relaxed melody, so it’s easy to remember and a good song.

Even junior high school students should be able to understand it well.

The chorus is especially easy to remember, so it’s recommended for singing.

Have a nice dayBon Jovi

Bon Jovi is easy to listen to and I really love them.

Even a junior high school student can enjoy their music and end up loving it.

As a junior high student, you feel like you’re listening to slightly grown-up rock, which makes you a big fan.

The melodies are easy to remember.

They’re a very famous rock band, and the moment I heard them I thought they were geniuses.

The phrase “god of rock” might even suit them.

Once you listen, you become captivated by him.

My bandmates in middle school often covered their songs.

It’s difficult, but I love it.

Yesterday Once MoreCarpenters

The Carpenters – Yesterday Once More (INCLUDES LYRICS)

It’s one of my favorite pieces, and I became a huge fan after performing it in my middle school wind ensemble.

It’s a very old piece, but the melody feels nostalgic and still sounds fresh even now.

It was also in our music textbook, and it really brings back memories of that time.

I Want It That WayBackstreet Boys

This one is famous too, and I really love the chorus and the part right after it—it’s so cool, and I used to listen to it a lot.

There’s a time when you start admiring bands, and as a middle schooler you end up loving this kind of music and can memorize it quickly.

You really get into Western music.

It’s slow and easy to sing.
