Summer TriangleNICO Touches the Walls

NICO Touches the Walls 'Summer Triangle'

When you think of summer, you think of Calpis, right? The song used in Calpis’s 2012 commercial was “Natsu no Daisankakkei” by NICO Touches the Walls.

It’s their 10th single, and after its release it reached No.

16 on the Oricon Weekly Chart and No.

9 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100.

The intro’s sound is so emotional—it brings back those youthful memories, doesn’t it? The chorus has a great sense of release too, so definitely try singing it at karaoke!

Sparklers ~An August Promise~Sonar Pocket

Sonar Pocket “Sparklers: August Promise” [MV Short]

Sonar Pocket’s “Senkou Hanabi ~August’s Promise~” is a love ballad themed around senkou hanabi, a classic symbol of summer.

Its lyrics depict a couple’s fleeting summer romance set in Enoshima.

By likening the scenes to senkou hanabi, the song amplifies a distinctly summery atmosphere.

Brimming with happiness, it’s a great pick for a romantic vibe when you go to karaoke with your partner.

The inclusion of a rap part adds just the right amount of excitement, which is another charm of the song.

HOT LIMITT.M.Revolution

T.M.Revolution – HOT LIMIT | Official Music Video

Takanori Nishikawa’s solo project T.M.Revolution has produced numerous hits, powered by his overwhelmingly commanding high notes.

“HOT LIMIT” is the ultimate summer song that feels like the very essence of summer freedom distilled into sound! In particular, its message—“embrace your desires without hiding them and enjoy a true summer”—is sure to send your energy soaring.

It’s perfect to sing right in the midst of summer, but I also highly recommend it as a track to blow away the muggy air when spring turns into summer.

tropical nightTHE YELLOW MONKEY

THE YELLOW MONKEY – Tropical Night

Tropical nights where the stifling heat won’t let you sleep—that’s the theme of the love song “Nettaiya.” It’s a track by THE YELLOW MONKEY, weaving together the swelter of a tropical night with the rising passion between two people.

Coupled with an intense rock sound, singing it might just blow the heat away.

Since it repeats memorable phrases, it’s also perfect for getting everyone hyped and singing along.

It seems great for clapping or adding a tambourine, too.
