Duet love song ballads (1–10)
AM11:00HY
A song by HY, a band from Okinawa composed of both male and female members.
It’s included on the album Street Story, which achieved their first No.
1 on the Oricon charts, and it was used as an insert song in the NHK morning drama Jun to Ai.
As one of HY’s signature tracks, it’s also popular for karaoke.
Since the band has both male and female members, the song has parts for each, making it perfect for a duet.
Right after the male vocal’s rap, the male vocal’s regular part comes in immediately, so instead of sticking strictly to the original division of parts, it’s fine to have the other singer cover that section to make it easier to perform.
Embrace the presentNOA
If you want to sing something gently and heartfelt, I recommend “Ima wo Dakishimete.” It’s a single released in 1993 by NOA, a duo formed by Atsuko Sendo and Eisaku Yoshida, who starred in the drama “Tetteiteki ni Ai wa…,” with music composed by YOSHIKI.
This beautiful piano ballad was created in response to a request to make a “classic duet song that young people can sing,” and it truly adds color to any duet.
It’s not too long and has a calm melody, making it approachable for anyone.
With lyrics that echo a sincere, earnest love, it’s sure to resonate with your own romance.
Surely more than anyone else in the worldNagayama Miho & WANDS
It’s a love song released in 1992 by Miho Nakayama and the rock band WANDS.
It was also used as the theme song for the drama “Dareka ga Kanojo o Aishiteru,” starring Miho Nakayama.
Since it has been covered by various artists, it’s a classic widely known even among those who weren’t of that generation.
With its refreshing romantic vibe, it’s a go-to duet song that fits any scene!

Song of PointillismMrs. GREEN APPLE
Mrs.
GREEN APPLE is known for their bright, pop-leaning songs, but this track—featuring Sonoko Inoue as a guest vocalist—unfolds into a sweeping ballad that portrays a fleeting summer romance.
The lyrics, filled with deep mutual feelings yet foreshadowing an inevitable end, are heartbreakingly beautiful, almost to the point of tightening your chest.
Written as an insert song for the film “Ao-Natsu: Kimi ni Koi Shita 30-Nichi” and included on the single “Ao to Natsu,” released in August 2018, this piece is also a staple duet sung by a man and a woman.
Why not try blending your voices with someone special?
to UBank Band
This is a classic song by Bank Band, the star-studded supergroup famous for performances and vocals by many renowned musicians, including Kazutoshi Sakurai of Mr.Children and GAKU-MC.
“to U” features Salyu as a guest vocalist in a duet style.
Its beautiful melody and powerful lyrics are deeply moving, and the message gives you something to think about.
LOVERSWakadanna feat. Katō Miriya
This song features Wakadanna and Miliyah Kato.
Right from the start, Wakadanna’s powerful, husky voice feels like it jumps straight into your ears.
That’s exactly why Miliyah Kato’s clear, beautiful vocals shine even more.
It’s a track where two distinct personalities support each other.
Try singing this solid, heavy-rhythm number as a duet—man and woman—in an emotive, passionate style at karaoke.
You idiot.riria. feat. arekun
Original song “Baka” by singer-songwriter Are-kun.
This is the 2020 collaboration version with Riria.
It portrays a girlfriend who brings up breaking up to test the feelings of her boyfriend, who’s always wrapped up in himself and doesn’t pay her enough attention, and a boyfriend who panics when his beloved girlfriend says she wants to break up.
It’s a love song that tugs at the heartstrings and leaves you feeling warm in the end.
If you’re heading to karaoke as a couple, why not try singing it together?
