Dream FireworksNovelbright
You know those songs where, as soon as you hear the chorus, you go, “Oh, that one!”—even if you don’t know the title? Novelbright’s “Yume Hanabi” is one of those.
It was used in a mobile game app commercial featuring Kanna Hashimoto, so lots of people have probably heard it.
With its crystal-clear vocals and soaring high notes in the chorus, you might think it’s a bit challenging—but if you can sing it, you’re sure to stand out! It’s a love song packed tightly with a bittersweet, aching feeling.
A Naked Heartaimyon
When it comes to female singer-songwriters who command overwhelming popularity in the J-pop scene, Aimyon immediately comes to mind! Her songs span a wide range of styles—from breezy, upbeat tracks like “Marigold,” to catchy, high-energy numbers like “Anata Kaibou Jun Aika ~Shine~,” and even eerie, atmospheric pieces like “Midsummer Night’s Smell.” But among them, this one is a rather rare, straight-down-the-middle love ballad! It lays bare an uncontrollable feeling of love, and it would be so cool to sing it with the same smooth, graceful touch as the artist herself.
Brain Narcotics Remix feat. CHEHON, MAKA, Ku-Jun, POWER WAVE, CIMA & keithRAY
The track “Nounai Mayaku Remix feat.
CHEHON, MAKA, Kujun, POWER WAVE, CIMA & keith” is currently blowing up in the hip-hop and reggae scenes.
Born from DJ RAY’s entry into the battle scene, it features verses that transcend the boundaries between hip-hop and reggae.
The hook in this piece has a very narrow vocal range by RAY’s standards, so many people should be able to sing it comfortably in the original key.
Heads, be sure to add it to your repertoire.
Latest episodewanuka
This song portrays the unique embarrassment and courage of adolescent love with true-to-life emotions.
It serves as the ending theme for the TV anime “A Star Brighter Than the Sun,” and it perfectly marries Wanuka’s distinctive word choice with the sound arrangement crafted together with Hyakkai Outo.
The lyrics delicately express the feelings of being unable to be honest precisely because you care about the other person, and they’re sure to resonate with many listeners.
Released in October 2025, this fresh and vibrant anime song is one you should definitely check out.
Kaikai KitanEVE
You’ll get hooked on its stylish sound! This is a work by Eve, a singer-songwriter who also produces Vocaloid tracks, released in 2020 as his fourth digital single.
It drew attention for being chosen as the opening theme for the anime Jujutsu Kaisen, based on the Jump manga.
With its fast-paced sound and razor-sharp vocals, it’s packed with cool elements! Plus, the lyrics reflect the story’s worldview, so if you listen after watching the anime, you might get a different impression.
Sing it with full energy!
ultramarineYOASOBI
It’s the commercial song that became a hot topic through its collaboration with the manga Blue Period, which depicts a protagonist aiming for art school.
The refined track, so characteristic of YOASOBI, pairs beautifully with ikura’s straight, crystal-clear vocals.
It’s an upbeat, rhythmic track, yet the vocal phrasing flows smoothly and effortlessly over it—the contrast is incredibly cool! I think many people will be moved by the lyrics, which speak both to the beauty and the anxieties of single-mindedly pursuing what you love.
heartaimyon
A singer-songwriter with a devoted fan base across generations for her moving vocals and lyrics, Aimyon released “Heart” in 2021, which was used as the theme song for the drama “Only Just Married” (Konin Todoke ni Han wo Oshita Dake desu ga).
The lyrics candidly portray the feelings of falling in love, making them impossible not to relate to.
Its warm, rich sound gently soothes anxious hearts.
This slow-tempo ballad also suits karaoke well and is perfect for singing tenderly.
Try singing it while thinking of someone special.
