A gentle feelingChara

A song featuring an artistic, distinctive singing voice paired with feminine, adorable lyrics.

Many people may have heard it because Moka Kamishiraishi’s cover was used as the theme song for a Kirin Afternoon Tea commercial.

Let it touch your sweet maiden’s heart and put you in a gentle mood.

“How should I express gratitude to my parents?” This heartwarming song by the five-member band wacci offers one answer to that bashful dilemma.

It sings about the struggles our parents faced that we didn’t recognize until we grew up, and the deep love that accepted and forgave us unconditionally no matter what.

It expresses an overflowing “thank you” in song, like presenting a beautiful bouquet.

The track is included on the album Gunjō Refrain, released in November 2018.

In 2020, a music video made from about 400 fan-submitted photos was produced, moving many people.

Sing it at a wedding or a family celebration, and it will warmly embrace listeners’ hearts and bring the whole venue together.

Why not sing it with all your heart, thinking of the people you hold dear?

budKobukuro

One of Kobukuro’s signature songs, Tsubomi, was written by Kentarō Obuchi in memory of his late mother.

Released in 2007, the song was used as the theme for the drama Tokyo Tower: Mom and Me, and Sometimes Dad.

Not only is it well-known and easy to remember, but its gentle, flowing pace also makes it comfortable to sing.

Because the melody has a fairly wide range, you should pay some attention to the key.

If your voice is on the lower side, try lowering the key a bit; if you’re good with higher keys, singing in the original key might be best.

Sing it with your heart, thinking of someone dear to you.

DearMrs. GREEN APPLE

DearMrs. GREEN APPLE

Released in June 2024, this song was chosen as the theme for the film “Dear Family.” Its lyrics are filled with love for family, trust, and kindness, making it a theme song that ties in very strongly with the story.

With a tempo of 124, it’s relatively easy to breathe and ride the rhythm.

In the A and B sections, let your breath flow as if you’re speaking.

Start each phrase with a slightly accented, firm attack, but let the endings trail off lightly with an airy feel.

Sing the chorus grandly, and give the end of the chorus a light, bouncing touch.

Also, in the melody after the second chorus, the first syllable is “na,” which tends to sit in the nose, so project more clearly and firmly than you think.

That way you won’t get stuck, and your voice will come out comfortably and easily.

It’s a song over five minutes long, so take your time and sing each part with care!

A Little SongJUJU

JUJU is also an artist who brings out a gentle low register, and she has lots of easy-to-listen-to songs! The A and B sections have a calm feel based on the mid-to-low range, so sing carefully, one phrase at a time.

Also, the final chorus modulates and goes higher—the top note reaches D5—so it might be a bit tough for lower-voiced women, but be careful not to strain your throat or belt.

Sing with the sensation of a soft hum, imagining the sound resonating in your forehead and the top of your head.

Doing this may expand your vocal range and help you sing a wider variety of songs!

biscuitYU-KI

It’s a feminine, pop, and cute song.

With biscuits as its theme—something adults don’t usually associate with—it evokes a childlike spirit and a playful mood.

At karaoke, I hope you’ll let loose and sing it as if you’re baring your true self.

beetle (specifically, a rhinoceros beetle)aiko

A timeless classic that evokes gentle, slightly bittersweet feelings and a sense of mature femininity.

Although kabutomushi (rhinoceros beetles) are known as summer insects, aiko thought they were winter insects, so it’s actually considered a winter song.

It’s also easy to sing, so I hope you’ll give it a try.
