Ballads That Always Make You Cry at Karaoke (21–30)
YOUYUI

This song is also the ending theme for the film Paradise Kiss, and since it was written specifically for it, it fits the movie perfectly.
It honestly expresses a girl’s frustration and heartache, and it brings back memories of an unforgettable love that brings me to tears.
NAOHY

This work, which vividly portrays the pain of unrequited and unattainable love, is a ballad that brings listeners to tears.
The lyrics are based on the real-life experience of vocalist Izumi Nakasone’s close friend, and the aching feeling of not being noticed by the one you love comes through painfully clearly.
Included on the album “Confidence,” released in April 2006, it’s a timeless classic that has long been cherished by many fans.
It is also featured on the best-of album “STORY ~HY BEST~,” and has become established as a signature heartbreak song by HY.
Set to a piano accompaniment that lets you sing your heart out, it’s perfect for those times when you want a good cry to feel refreshed.
If there’s someone you just can’t forget, why not sing this song at karaoke and let all your feelings out?
Give me a gentle kiss.DREAMS COME TRUE

It’s a short piece of about three minutes, but it’s packed tightly with a range of emotions.
It makes you once again feel how precious it is to fall in love with someone and to spend time with that person, and at the same time it’s sorrowful and heart-wrenching.
Before our feelings overlap…Hirai Ken

From the very beginning, Ken Hirai’s beautiful singing voice resonates in this song.
It’s a 2004 track that was used in a TOYOTA Corolla Fielder commercial and also served as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “The Truth of Tsugumi Kuzushi.” The lyrics make it a ballad that feels both like singing and like speaking to someone, so it’s a song you can really get into and sing calmly.
I often point out Ken Hirai’s singing characteristics to my students, so please use them as a reference! First, while it’s memorable that he sings with his eyes closed, in reality, closing your eyes can cause unnecessary tension and make it harder to stay on pitch.
However, Hirai raises his eyebrows and uses his hand to track the pitch while he sings.
He compensates in other ways so that singing becomes more natural and easier.
This gesture also makes it much easier to produce falsetto, so definitely give it a try!
DOLLSJanne Da Arc

When I first listened to DOLLS, I imagined a woman who had been dumped, clinging on.
But since it’s based on vocalist yasu’s real experience, I was moved to realize that men, too, honestly express their fear of being alone and their desire not to lose someone like this.
Love StoryAmuro Namie

While it’s also the theme song for a drama, the music video is incredibly poignant and beautiful, and deeply moving.
Even when you’re in love, there can be things that matter even more, or reasons that force you to let go, and the struggles of such a woman are portrayed very clearly.
OverMr.Children

Among love songs from a male perspective, this one is so wonderful that it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call it my top recommendation.
I can’t speak for women, but while part of me thinks it would be nice if someone felt this way about me, imagining a man in such a vulnerable state also makes me feel a deep sadness.
