Polaroid Love is a gem packed with the charm of ENHYPEN’s music.

Included on the 2022 repackage album DIMENSION : ANSWER, it’s a pop-tinged R&B track that sings about single-minded love.

Beyond its wistful, stylish mood, you’ll be drawn in by the members’ sumptuous vocals.

With lots of falsetto and high notes, it’s quite challenging, but if you sing it as if it’s spilling straight from the heart, you can capture the vibe.

The melody is so pleasant you’ll want to hum along, and it’s perfect for softening the atmosphere of any setting.

A classic, catchy cheer song that shines with TWICE’s signature upbeat energy.

Among their Japanese tracks, this one is especially beloved and a must-pick for karaoke! While the pitch is high, the overall range is relatively narrow, giving it that familiar Japanese-pop feel that makes it easy to jump into.

It should be especially easy to sing for people with higher voices or those confident in their singing.

Above all, the super groovy rhythm makes it perfect for getting the crowd hyped! Splitting the parts like the members’ line distribution would make it even more fun to sing together.

A song that depicts feelings of love gradually swelling.

It likens romantic emotions to a bomb, singing about feelings growing so big you can’t hold them back yourself.

The key when singing is that in this song, the emotions don’t suddenly go boom.

Rather, it’s like a balloon with a tiny hole, letting air slowly escape.

From that uncontrollable mass of emotion, tenderness seeps out little by little.

If you grasp this, it becomes easier to add dynamics to your singing.

An emotional love song that expresses a yearning so strong that every day turns monochrome without someone to have feelings for.

It’s a track by NewJeans, a leading figure among 4th-generation girl groups that shines with a fresh, unprecedented charm, and it ranked 6th in the 2023 JOYSOUND first-half K-POP category.

The R&B-tinged melody, reminiscent of Western pop, is easy on the ears and irresistibly singable.

Beyond its huge popularity, it’s very much a vocal-driven song, which makes it highly recommended for karaoke as well.

NewJeans are an emblem of aspiration too, and there’s something to admire about casually nailing this refined song.
