Tie a ribbon around my affectionLittle Glee Monster

Perfect for getting into the Christmas spirit.

It’s a song by the female vocal group Little Glee Monster, included on their first EP released in 2019, “I Feel The Light featuring Earth, Wind & Fire.” Chosen as a Coca-Cola commercial song, it became a hot topic.

Carried by their characteristically beautiful choral work, the lyrics sing of childhood Christmas memories and the realization that this special day is filled with love.

Just listening to it makes you feel happy.

At karaoke, I’d love to see a few girls split the parts and sing it together.

The season of farewellSHISHAMO

A youthful number from SHISHAMO, who keep delivering breezy Japanese pop.

Their old band name actually wrote shishamo as “柳葉魚.” The heart-fluttering level of this song is just… it honestly makes you ache.

The lyrics, which trace a one-sided crush that ends with graduation, are pure youth! It’s perfect for student farewell parties and send-offs.

I’d love to hear a lively woman—especially someone with a “I’ll go first as the leadoff batter!!” vibe—sing this upbeat track.

And don’t miss the music video—you’ll definitely want to recommend it to everyone!

Sky-blue DaysSHISHAMO

When graduation season comes around, this is a song I’d love for women to sing: “Mizuiro no Hibi” by SHISHAMO, a hugely popular girls’ band among the younger generation.

Its lyrics, which depict everyday scenes at school and the bittersweet feelings of a girl before graduation, are sure to resonate with any student.

I’m sure many men would love to hear such a lovely, cute-lyric song sung! It’s a song that’s perfect for this time of year, so if you have a chance to go to karaoke before graduation, definitely give it a try!

It was released in 1997 as SPEED’s fifth single.

With total sales exceeding two million copies, it’s their biggest hit.

The song was used in a commercial for Shiseido’s Tissera Angel Drop, and it served as the turning point that transformed SPEED from a bright, energetic image to a more feminine, dance-oriented one.

It’s a song you’d want to sing with heartfelt emotion.

For a man with whom you have a more-than-friends, not-quite-lovers relationship, a song women should sing is “Cinderella Boy.” It was released in 2021 by Saucy Dog, a band known for popular songs that depict realistic romance.

The song portrays the bittersweet relationship of a couple who are close yet can’t seem to come together.

Deliver an emotional vocal performance over the simple yet passionate band sound.

It’s a love song filled with a heart-wrenching sense of longing.

Try singing it with your genuine feelings for the one you love.

Superfly, who keeps delivering a rock groove that feels anything but typical for Japan.

It might be a bit tough to sing well, but even so, this is one song I really want women to sing: “Like a Shining Moon.” The lyrics—like speaking directly to someone, saying “Because you’re here, I can be me.

Thank you”—really stir a man’s heart… If she sings it with a smile, you can’t help but fall for her, right? It was also the theme song for the TV drama “Summer Rescue: The Sky Clinic.” It always starts playing in those moments when you feel relieved.

If you’re unsure what to sing, definitely choose this one!

If you call it loveUru

If you call it loveUru

If you call it love by Uru is a gentle song about the resolve to “never lose again the things you only realize are precious after they’re gone.” Rather than dwelling on the pessimism of loss, it puts forward a positive feeling—reaffirming what’s truly important through the experience of losing it.

A man hearing it sung right in front of him would probably be startled, thinking, “Does she not want to lose me!?” Because it isn’t a straightforward love song, you can sing it without feeling embarrassed.

Why not casually sing it to someone you like?
