With Mr.
Niihama’s powerful vocals and a blend of enka and pop, the track feels approachable for younger listeners as well.
The pitch is relatively low overall, and the range isn’t particularly demanding; since it leans toward pop, it’s a great recommendation for enka beginners or anyone looking to try a new style of enka.

Old Testament Generalization StreetHiiragi Magunetaito
It’s a song with a captivating cyberpunk-inspired worldview.
Composed by Hiiragi Magnetite and released in October 2020, it evokes a world that repeatedly collapses and regenerates, a mechanized future society, and abstract lyrics that leave a strong impression.
The dark, heavy beat and Hatsune Miku’s vocals deepen that atmosphere.
I want to aim for a singing style that brings out this cool vibe.
Since the musical genres and moods vary across Hiiragi Magnetite’s works, it might be good to look for pieces that suit you.
Feeling refreshedMoritaka Chisato
Chisato Moritaka’s signature song, which wraps the pain of heartbreak in a refreshing vocal tone, also drew attention as an Asahi Beer commercial song released in January 1994.
While it gives a bright and energetic impression on the surface, its lyrics compellingly portray the complexities of a woman’s emotions.
The feelings of the protagonist, who loses her crush to her best friend, are beautifully conveyed through Moritaka’s clear, transparent voice.
The song gained further attention when Moritaka herself appeared in the Asahi Beer commercial, and it was embraced by a wide audience—being used as background music when Hideo Nomo made his Major League debut, among other occasions.
It’s a perfect track for livening up a karaoke session or for helping you overcome the pain of a broken heart.

I’m sure it’s a wonderful piece that will stay close to your heart.
