(J-pop) EXILE ~Chapter 1~ – Eternity (2006) (Lip Sync MV)

The song “Eien” (“Eternity”) is included on the fourth album “ASIA,” released in 2006.

It drew attention when it was chosen as the theme song for the drama “Machiben,” which features a female lawyer as the protagonist.

It’s a slow ballad that colors a band sound with beautiful strings and piano, and its grand composition and vocals can truly move you to tears.

The romantic lyric, “We met so that we could leave love behind,” is also really wonderful.

While the vocal range is easy to sing, the key to conveying its world lies in how much feeling you can put into it.

Keep that in mind as you give it a try.

Harmony of DecemberKinKi Kids

KinKi Kids「Harmony of December」Music Video

Released in 2006 as their 24th single, “Harmony of December” is a winter ballad with the gentle sound of bells ringing.

The two voices are so tender that it makes you want to close your eyes and listen.

The lyrics, which portray the preciousness of time spent with a loved one, are also romantic and captivating.

There’s a falsetto part, but that doesn’t mean the pitch of the phrase is particularly high.

Try singing it while carefully following the melody.

I can’t love anyone but you anymore.KinKi Kids

KinKi Kids “I Can’t Love Anyone But You - YouTube Original Live -”

The 10th single “Mou Kimi Igai Aisenai,” released as a double A-side with “Natsu no Ousama.” It was used as the opening theme for the TV drama “Tenshi ga Kieta Machi,” starring Koichi Domoto, and its contrast between love-filled messaging and delicate piano sounds is truly heart-wrenching.

As a ballad, the tempo is quite relaxed, making it easy to sing, but be careful with the high notes that appear in the latter half of the chorus.

Its simple song structure makes it easy to memorize, and it’s a recommended karaoke pick to keep in your repertoire as a clutch “go-to” song when it really counts.

I want to love rather than be lovedKinKi Kids

KinKi Kids “I Want to Love Rather Than Be Loved” Music Video

Released as their second single in 1997, this song served as the theme for the drama “Bokura no Yuuki: Miman City,” which also drew attention for featuring Koichi and Tsuyoshi in dual leading roles.

It’s a sophisticated electronic tune, and perhaps thanks to that style, the chorus phrases really stick in your head.

The lyrics, which carry the message “I want to find true love,” are another appealing point.

With a four-on-the-floor rhythm, it’s easy to groove to, and the highest notes are low, making it easy to sing.

Try aiming for a slightly wistful vocal tone.

The power of loveSEVENTEEN

SEVENTEEN ‘Power of Love’ Official MV

One of SEVENTEEN’s winter songs is “Aino Chikara.” It’s an original track written for the Japanese market.

This ballad likens the pain of being separated from a loved one to the cold of winter, and the eventual reunion to the warmth of spring.

Because it carries a gentle, healing message, it’s the kind of song that could comfort listeners when you sing it.

Overall, it’s slow and easy to sing, but be careful with the high notes at the end.

Keep practicing them repeatedly!

HAPPY BIRTHDAYback number

back number - “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” Music Video (Theme song for the TBS Tuesday drama “A Story to Read When You First Fall in Love”)

An emotionally moving medium-tempo ballad that portrays the complex feelings of unrequited love—from the faint expectations on the eve of a birthday to the ache of emotions that never reach their destination.

In contrast to the happiness of a birthday, the loneliness and the sorrow of being unable to express one’s feelings straightforwardly resonate with a delicate melodic line.

Released in February 2019, the song was featured as the theme for the TBS drama “A Story to Read When You First Fall in Love,” and was also included on the album “MAGIC.” With vocals that gently embrace the bittersweet emotions of love that everyone has experienced, it’s a song well-suited for karaoke, where it can be performed in a calm, composed manner.
