Star‑mineHatsuboshi Gakuen
Gakuen Idolmaster is popular among teens and people in their twenties.
Many of my students play this game, and a lot of them have sung its songs in lessons.
This time, Star‑mine isn’t a solo track but a unit song! Overall, the key is comfortable for female voices, but the highest note is a high G# (G#5), which appears at the end of the chorus.
Hitting a high G# after continuous singing is quite challenging, but aim to produce it entirely in head voice—imagine sending the sound thinly upward, as if from above your head straight up—and make sure to support it with solid breath flow.
If it’s hard to do within the song, first practice producing just this note on its own.
Since it’s an idol song, it could be fun to gather fans of Gakumasu and split the parts! Enjoy singing it!
As the gods say!≠ME
This track was included on the double A-side single released on April 30, 2025, and was selected as the ending theme for the second season of the TV anime “A Galaxy Next Door.” With a sparkling, upbeat vibe, the lyrics—depicting the flutter and heartache of love—fit perfectly.
It’s a classic idol song you’ll want to listen to over and over again.
A fresh, vibrant musical experience awaits you!
S, M, L☆Afilia Saga
It’s a song that was used as an anime theme.
The slightly “2D” vibe of the lyrics is really cute.
The choreography is simple, so you can sing along while copying the moves.
I think it can satisfy not only idol otaku but anime otaku as well.
UNITpuranime
Planimé, currently active under a different name, is known for having great songs.
Rather than typical idol-style cuteness, their tracks are cool and can impress even dedicated music fans.
It’s also fun to invite another person and sing as a duo.
Tonight is a Hearty PartyJuice=Juice
This work, a cover of Mariya Takeuchi’s classic song, is brimming with fun and warmth.
It portrays how people forget their everyday worries and gain energy for tomorrow through parties with friends.
It’s included on a single set for release in February 2025 and has also been chosen as a TV program theme.
When it was first performed at the Nippon Budokan in November 2024, the Christmas party–themed production reportedly brought the house down.
It’s the perfect track for when you want to enjoy time with friends or when you need a boost of energy.
