A wonderful, moving song

[Moving Songs] A collection of touching Japanese pop classics that are easy to sing at karaoke.

There are lots of songs that move you when you listen to them, right?

But when it comes to singing them yourself at karaoke, have you ever found the notes surprisingly high or the melody harder to pitch than you expected?

This time, I’ve gathered some comparatively easy-to-sing songs among the moving ones!

There are emotional songs for various situations—departures, farewells, expressions of gratitude—so I think you’ll find ones that resonate when you relate them to your own experiences.

I’d be happy if you discover a new favorite among the songs I’m introducing.

Let’s get started!

365 Days' Paper AirplaneAKB48

A song by the hugely popular idol group AKB48 that cheerfully and optimistically sings about “hope” and the “future” in life.

Many people may know it since it was used as the theme song for a morning drama series.

It’s not too sentimental, and it’s something everyone can sing together.

The Toilet GodUemura Kana

A song based on the real-life experiences of female singer-songwriter Kana Uemura.

It was widely featured on TV a few years ago, so it’s quite well-known and many people can probably hum along.

It’s recommended for a calm, mellow mood.

Welcome back.ayaka

A song by female singer-songwriter Ayaka that reflects on her hometown.

When your environment changes—like transferring schools, advancing to the next stage, or setting off on a new journey—listening to it will fill you with gratitude for where you come from.

As it was also a TV drama theme song, it’s well-known and an easy choice to sing at karaoke.

Words of FarewellKaientai

A hugely popular hit by the well-known band Kaientai.

Though it’s a farewell song, it carries a powerful message.

Since it was the theme song of a beloved national TV drama, it’s no exaggeration to say that everyone knows it.

It’s a song that people of all generations can sing.

Believe Be:leaveAimer

The song “Believe Be:leave,” included on the 3rd album DAWN, was chosen as the ending theme for the music program ONCHIKA.

Its airy, transparent ensemble really lingers in your ears.

While the key is a bit high, the restrained vocal style makes pitch control easier, and the melody has relatively gentle dynamics, so it should be approachable even for those who aren’t confident singers.

It’s a soft pop tune that will draw everyone in if you sing it at karaoke.
