Singer-songwriter TOMOO, who showed her musical talent from a young age by transcribing film and anime music on the piano by ear.

The lead track “Super Ball” from her major debut album TWO MOON features a colorful sound that matches its title and a cool vocal performance that leaves a strong impression.

The lyrics, which celebrate the importance of keeping a childlike heart even as an adult, may soothe a spirit weighed down by the busyness of daily life.

With its stylish, urban ensemble, it’s also a great pick as background music for drives and other outings.

Singer-songwriter Natori, whose 2022 track Overdose released on social media drew a huge response and gained strong support especially among younger listeners.

This is singer-songwriter Wanuka’s third digital-only single, released in June 2021.

The melody and rhythm, which carry a subtle Japanese flavor, make the song quite memorable.

The vocal melody centers on a mid-range that’s easy for most people to sing, so range likely won’t be a stumbling block for karaoke.

To aim for a high score in karaoke, the key point is how well you can reproduce the song’s overall airy, nonchalant vibe and its light, buoyant feel—without pushing ahead of the beat.

The vocal expression isn’t particularly difficult, so study the original carefully and give it a try.

Heart ForecastEVE

It makes you want to clap along to the beat.

This track by Eve—famous both as a vocalist and a Vocaloid producer—is included on the 2020 album “Smile.” It was also used as the theme song for Lotte Ghana Chocolate’s “Pink Valentine.” Eve’s singing style here is adorable and wonderful.

Many listeners will relate to the lyrics’ straightforward feelings for someone they like; it may especially resonate with junior high and high school students.

Try singing it while feeling the light, lively rhythm in your body.

“Ratpark feat.

Kei Sugawara,” which puts a duo’s chemistry to the test, is also highly recommended.

This is a collaboration between the rock band PEOPLE 1 and singer-songwriter Kei Sugawara.

Set to an intense sound, it channels anger and inner conflict toward the world.

A key feature of the track is how the vocals switch in slightly early handoffs and how callouts are timed to the other’s singing.

Because of that, it requires tighter coordination than a typical duet.
