Since their debut in 2021, the seven-member male idol group Naniwa Danshi has expanded their activities beyond music, with each member appearing on variety shows and more.

This is their third single.

Its refreshing sound and ensemble evoke the liveliness of winter and feel pleasant, don’t they? It’s catchy and easy to remember, and because the melody is relatively relaxed compared to the song’s tempo, it should be easy to sing even for those who aren’t very confident at karaoke.

If you feel too shy to sing alone, try singing it with someone.

It’s a winter song that will liven up year-end and New Year karaoke.

A four-piece rock band, Spitz, known for their unforgettable high-tone vocals and catchy ensemble that have produced numerous hit tunes, releases their 40th single.

This song was newly written as the ending theme for the TV drama “Inconvenient Convenience Store,” and it is the band’s first number themed around snow.

Its relaxed tempo makes it easy to sing, but because it features many leaps in pitch and a wide vocal range, practice is necessary before performing it at karaoke.

If you find it difficult to hit the high notes, try adjusting the key on the karaoke machine to suit your voice, and give it a shot.

When it comes to Arashi’s winter-themed songs, many people probably think of “WISH,” don’t they? It’s a track that evokes Christmas, with catchy lyrics and a memorable melody.

This piece is also very easy to sing.

Many Johnny’s songs from that era are low in difficulty and can be sung by anyone, and this one is crafted as orthodox pop music that’s easy to sing without requiring a particular vocal timbre.

Kaela Kimura “A winter fairy is melting a snowman” [short ver.]
A winter fairy is melting a snowmanKimura Kaera

This is the 16th single by Kaela Kimura, who studied piano and Electone from childhood and decided to pursue a career as a singer after the shock she felt when taking her university entrance exams.

The song was used in an NTT Docomo commercial, and its synth-driven, fast-paced arrangement really amps up the energy.

Although a rapid English phrase is repeated from the very beginning, the melody itself is simple, so once you get used to it, it’s quite easy to sing.

It’s a winter song recommended for women that will liven up your winter karaoke sessions.

Snow’s waymarkerMatsutōya Yumi

A digital-only single by Yumi Matsutoya, who debuted as a composer at 17 and continues to lead the J-POP scene as a singer-songwriter.

The song was written for House Foods’ “Hokkaido Stew” commercial and is also included on her 39th album, “Shinkai no Machi” (City of the Deep Sea).

Set over a slow, piano-featured ensemble with a not-too-high key, it’s easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident at karaoke.

However, because it’s packed with Matsutoya’s distinctive melodic lines, we recommend listening closely before performing it at karaoke.

Sorrow like snowHamada Shogo

Sadness Like Snow (ON THE ROAD 2011 “The Last Weekend”)
Sorrow like snowHamada Shogo

It’s one of Shogo Hamada’s signature songs and a staple of the winter season.

Based on Hamada’s own experience of learning that his mother had collapsed—and in the depths of that sorrow and despair suddenly feeling a gentle compassion toward others—the song carries a warm atmosphere.

While it’s straightforward and easy to sing, a closer look at the lyrics reveals a message that hits you deep in your heart.

Please cherish the lyrics and sing it gently, yet with strength.
