The vocal line is simple enough that even children could sing it.

Thank youikimonogakari
This is Ikimono-gakari’s 18th single, released in May 2010.
It was reportedly written as the theme song for the first half of NHK’s 2010 morning drama series Gegege no Nyobo.
The piece has a slightly ballad-like feel and has been crafted into a very gentle and beautiful song.
Perhaps because it expresses a “tender feeling,” the vocal melody is also very straightforward and beautiful, making it quite easy to sing—especially for many women choosing it at karaoke.
If you try singing by placing the resonance toward the upper palate inside your mouth, you’ll likely get a brighter, sparkling tone with rich high overtones similar to the original singer’s.
Give it a try!
somedayyuzu
A song that probably every J-POP fan knows, right? “Itsuka,” released in 1999, has a powerful appeal that resonates across generations.
At first listen it may seem difficult, but it actually has a relatively singable melody line and is one of Yuzu’s easier songs to try.
It’s especially recommended if high notes aren’t your strong point.
On top of that, the harmony where the two voices intersect is highly satisfying.
You can enjoy it solo, of course, but singing it with friends and harmonizing makes it an even more compelling karaoke song.
Fragments of an EncounterKetsumeishi
This is a gem of a medium-tempo ballad that gently depicts growth through encounters and farewells.
Released in January 2008, it marked Ketsumeishi’s first time providing a theme song for a film, beautifully capturing the world of the movie “Flowers Blooming in the Shade” (Kage Hinata ni Saku).
Also included on the album “Ketsuno Police 6,” the song garnered wide support, reaching No.
2 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.
Seamlessly blending mellow rap with a catchy melody, the track is distinguished by its richly emotive piano lines.
It’s a perfect choice for karaoke with friends or for moments when you want to reflect on memories with someone special.
