TRAIN-TRAINTHE BLUE HEARTS

[Official] THE BLUE HEARTS 'TRAIN-TRAIN' [3rd Single (1988/11/23)] THE BLUE HEARTS / TRAIN-TRAIN
TRAIN-TRAINTHE BLUE HEARTS

TRAIN-TRAIN, the major-label 5th single that was used as the theme song for the TV drama High School Graffiti and is known as one of their signature tracks.

Its straightforward, not-just-pretty words message proves how THE BLUE HEARTS earned overwhelming support from junior high and high school students nationwide.

The tempo is fast, so you need to be careful not to fall behind the rhythm, but because the melody doesn’t have big ups and downs, it’s easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident singers.

It’s a rock tune everyone knows, guaranteed to fire up any karaoke session.

The creator unit HoneyWorks produces the idol mona.

She’s also known for being sung by voice actress and singer Shiina Natsukawa.

Speaking of mona’s signature songs, it has to be Fansa, which has blown up on social media.

The song conveys an idol’s perspective of wanting to give fan service.

It’s fun to join in with the short, catchy call-and-response parts.

Ikimono-gakari is a three-member rock band.

Their song Joyful, included on the 2009 single YELL/Joyful, became a huge hit as the theme for a Pocky commercial.

With a bright, dance-inducing vibe, it’s perfect for cranking up the energy at karaoke.

In the chorus, it feels even more exhilarating if one person takes the harmony part and you sing it as a duo.

And when you go with a big group of friends or coworkers, belting out the entire chorus together—rather than harmonizing—can be a great way to blow off steam!

His song Ao no Sumika, chosen as the opening theme for the TV anime Jujutsu Kaisen: Hidden Inventory / Premature Death, was released as the title track of his third EP.

The finely rising and falling melody and rapid-fire phrases are challenging, but karaoke fans and confident singers will likely enjoy it.

It’s a dramatic rock tune with a driving ensemble that energizes live settings.

Known for its unforgettable, catchy phrase that sticks after a single listen, “MEGA SHAKE IT” is a song by the rock band Kyuso Nekokami, released in 2015.

It’s also familiar as the commercial song for House Foods’ Mega Shaki.

You’ve probably heard the chorus with its almost screaming vocals.

Dejavina (Japanese ver.)risaitaruzu

Recitals – “Dejavina (Japanese ver.)” [Official Music Video]

Recitals is a group consisting of three members from Tokai On Air: Tetsuya, Shibayu, and Toshimitsu.

Their catchy melodies paired with Shibayu’s outlandish lyrics create a perfectly quirky charm.

Among their works, the one I especially recommend is “Dejavina (Japanese ver.).” While it features a stylish, K-pop-inspired melody, Shibayu’s over-the-top lyrics create a striking contrast that makes it truly unique.

Definitely try singing it at a drinking party or get-together.
