My parentsCatch Up
This is a ballad by Catch-Up that strikes the heart with its earnest wish to carry unspoken feelings through song.
It conveys both gratitude toward one’s parents and the frustration of not being able to express it well.
Those delicate emotions are rendered with a slightly gritty sound reminiscent of US indie and Minakumari’s warm vocals.
The track appears on the album Aaji, released in March 2000.
You may find it hard to be straightforward, but deep down you want to say “thank you.” This song will surely offer gentle comfort to anyone carrying that feeling.
Why not listen to it on a night when you want to savor your feelings for someone important?
Man & WomanMy Little Lover
Released in May 1995, this was My Little Lover’s debut single, and despite being newcomers, it became a hit with total sales of about 917,000 copies.
Its light, stylish sound reminiscent of French pop blends beautifully with Akko’s translucent vocals.
The song seems to depict the subtle emotional shifts between men and women—the missed connections, and yet the irresistible pull toward one another.
Later included on the classic album “evergreen,” which went on to sell over two million copies, this track captured many hearts.
It’s a song that gently accompanies that slightly sentimental feeling where hope and anxiety mingle just before love begins.
MIND CIRCUSNakatani Miki
Produced by Ryuichi Sakamoto, this work is notable for its urban, weightless sound.
Miki Nakatani’s cool, translucent vocals resonate like a kaleidoscope reflecting inner landscapes, instantly drawing listeners into its world.
Many will likely find themselves deeply absorbed by the song’s almost philosophical lyrics.
Released as a single in May 1996, the track colored the story as an insert song for the drama “Watch Out for Us,” in which Nakatani herself played the heroine.
Its 11-week run on the Oricon charts stands as proof of its appeal.
Why not listen to it on a night when you want to step away from the city’s clamor and have a quiet conversation with your own heart?
Mysterious Adventure!Tokyo Burasu Sutairu
This is a boldly arranged track that transforms a beloved, nationally famous anime song into a powerful big band sound! It’s included on the major-label debut album “Blasta Heaven,” released in August 2007.
The original song is the opening theme from the anime Dragon Ball.
The performance by a 10-piece ensemble is exhilarating just to listen to.
You can feel the adventurous spirit of leaping into the unknown and Goku’s excitement in chasing his dreams coming straight through the energetic horn tones.
It’s the perfect song to listen to when you want to start a new challenge or take a step beyond your everyday routine—it’ll give you a strong push forward!
Until My Babe-kun falls asleepSha ran Q
Sharan Q is a band that gained popularity for its original musicality, combining the essence of kayōkyoku with rock.
They’re well-regarded for their ballads, and among them, “My Babe Kimi ga Nemuru made” is especially recommended as an easy song to sing.
The vocal range is quite narrow, from mid1 C# to mid2 G#.
They frequently use a technique called ‘hiccup’ at the start of each phrase, so mastering this will quickly elevate the overall quality.
Give it a try for reference.
Mad HopeHoshino Gen
This song was written as the theme for the Netflix talk show “LIGHTHOUSE: Two Troubled Souls, Six Months of Conversation.” It’s included on the album “Gen,” released in May 2025, and drew major attention when its music video—directed by web writer ARuFa—was released in July.
The track is characterized by a thrilling sound that seems to distill seemingly reckless hope straight into music.
It’s the kind of song that can make you feel your mental boundaries falling away.
Perfect when you want creative stimulation or need a change of pace!
Mine or YoursUtada Hikaru
Hikaru Utada is known for her attractive low register, but the song I’m introducing today, “Mine or Yours,” features a lot of falsetto as well.
The overall vocal range is G3–E5, which is fairly wide, but the tempo is very relaxed, so you should be able to sing it without rushing.
You can take solid breaths at each phrase, and since the melody steps upward phrase by phrase, the song itself is easy to memorize.
Points to watch when singing are preventing your pitch from dropping and keeping your falsetto stable.
The first verse starts on the lower side, so if you begin with a throaty sound, you won’t be able to transition smoothly into falsetto.
From the start, try lifting your facial muscles and eyebrows, and aim the sound forward as if resonating in front of your eyebrows.
Just keeping this in mind will help you maintain pitch and let your falsetto come out very smoothly.
Also, to keep falsetto from feeling strained, engage your lower abdomen firmly and release your voice without hesitation!
