sign; mark; symbol; omenMr.Children
Mr.Children’s classic “Shirushi” is perfect for anyone who wants to sing comfortably at karaoke.
Released in November 2006, this single runs over seven minutes, inviting listeners on a rich musical journey.
Featured in the drama “14-year-old Mother,” the song opens with a piano-and-vocal intro, and its heartwarming lyrics—written by Kazutoshi Sakurai while picturing his beloved pygmy marmoset—are particularly memorable.
The chorus, born naturally from the flow of the melody, continues to captivate many fans.
In the lyrics, Sakurai’s deep affection and the subtle fluctuations of everyday emotions shine through, expressing the profound weight of a bond built on living together.
Highly recommended for those who want to savor blissful solo karaoke sessions or special moments with close friends.
FACES PLACESglobe
A track released as an advance single from the album “FACES PLACES.” KEIKO’s overwhelmingly high vocals make a striking impact.
It’s also fun to split up Marc Panther’s parts and sing it as a male-female duet.
The repeated English lyrics are pleasant and linger in your ears.
BirthOzaki Yutaka
Yutaka Ozaki, who still enjoys enduring popularity as a rock singer.
The song “Tanjou” (Birth) is included on his fifth album, also titled “Tanjou,” released in 1990.
Up until around 8 minutes and 20 seconds from the start, it has a breezy rhythm and powerful lyrics from the first-person perspective using “ore,” so it seems like a track that would get people fired up at karaoke.
After 8:20, it shifts to a mid-tempo feel, and the lyrics are woven in sync with the music as if he’s speaking to someone.
While many of the lyrics deal with life, it seems this particular song was a gift to his son, Hiroya Ozaki.
If you’d like, together.KAN
A single released in 2010.
It’s a lively 8-beat tune, which is unusual for KAN.
The lyrics depict two people walking side by side, and the gentle melody naturally lifts your spirits.
With few instrumental breaks and around eight minutes packed with vocals, you’ll need stamina to sing it all the way through.
Rain of Hazukiyuzu
Hazuki no Ame is a ballad included on the 2000 mini-album Yuzuman no Natsu.
It portrays the romance of two people, set in summer—Hazuki meaning August—with the irresistible scene of rain that perfectly suits a ballad.
From the 7-minute mark, there’s a 50-second music box passage that’s utterly enchanting.
The acoustic tones are laid-back, the rhythm is pleasant, and it’s the kind of song you’ll want to keep listening to.
Highly recommended for couples who want to sing a duet!
My Father’s Longest Daysadamasashi
This is a long-form piece that portrays a father from the birth of his daughter until she leaves the nest, told from the viewpoint of his son.
It’s a song by singer-songwriter Masashi Sada—who has produced numerous classics such as “Kampaku Sengen” and “From the North Country: Theme of Hotaru”—and it was released as a single in 1979.
The story-like lyrics are moving even just to read.
If a father with a daughter were to sing it, I think he would be in tears by the latter half.
That’s how deeply it resonates.
