An ambitious electronic dance-pop work included as the lead track on the 2011 album “Beautiful World.” Created as a message of hope and renewal for Japan after the Great East Japan Earthquake, it also marked the first music video for an album track in about eight years.

Its powerful beats and synthesizers weave a near-futuristic soundscape that resonates deeply with lyrics about pushing forward while facing hardship.

This is a profound love song that contrasts money and affection.

Released in October 2024 by KEIJU and Awich, the track centers on the emptiness that material wealth cannot fill and the redemption found in true love.

Premiered before an audience of 8,000 at the finale of KEIJU’s first nationwide tour, it sparked major buzz as the pair’s first eagerly awaited collaboration in seven years.

The lyrics candidly express the mindset of modern people grappling with loneliness, questioning the true value of love that money can’t buy.

It’s a recommended listen for anyone struggling in a romantic relationship or reflecting on the essential richness of life.

Mi Amore of the Gazekoyuri

Titled “Mi Amore,” which means “my love” in Italian, this work passionately portrays a mature romance.

Released by Nippon Columbia in March 2025, it is studded with striking Spanish phrases and envelops the listener in a melody rich with exotic flair.

The joys, heartaches, and inner conflicts felt in love are depicted with delicate nuance.

Koyuri’s translucent vocals blend beautifully with Minoru Maruo’s emotionally rich arrangements.

It’s a gem of a love song that resonates with the heart—perfect for a romantic evening with someone special.

MY MARINE MARILYNYamamoto Tatsuhiko

Tatsuhiko Yamamoto, a singer who gained popularity in the city pop scene in the 1980s.

Among the city pop of that era, many of his works leaned heavily toward mainstream pop, and he even released some American pop-style tracks.

Of all his songs, the one I especially recommend is “MY MARINE MARILYN.” It starts off with a city pop vibe, but as it builds toward the chorus, it takes on an American pop feel.

The vocal range is very narrow in every section, so it seems like a safe choice to sing at an after-party karaoke session.

Magical Cooking ~From You to You~BUMP OF CHICKEN

BUMP OF CHICKEN “Magic Cooking ~From You to You~”
Magical Cooking ~From You to You~BUMP OF CHICKEN

It’s a song that begins with a folk-style guitar and gradually layers warm strings.

Based on the real experiences of BUMP OF CHICKEN’s vocalist, Motoo Fujiwara, it conveys the message that memories of receiving love through cooking continue to support him even now as an adult.

Released on April 21, 2010 as their 17th single, it was also broadcast on NHK’s “Minna no Uta” from April to May of the same year.

It’s a perfect track for looking back on memories with family or reaffirming your gratitude to someone important.

Midsummer FruitEXILE

This is EXILE’s cover, a modern arrangement of a classic by Southern All Stars.

The harmonies of ATSUSHI and TAKAHIRO revive the original’s late-summer wistfulness and yearning for love with a fresh allure.

While honoring the emotion of the original—also beloved as the theme song for the film Inamura Jane—this version reconstructs it with EXILE’s signature dynamism, giving voice to nostalgia for seasons past and the ache of a lost love.

It’s a song that resonates deeply when you want to linger in summer memories or when you’ve said goodbye to someone dear.

Magic MirrorRADWIMPS

It’s a song titled with the kanji for “magic mirror,” read aloud as “Magic Mirror,” included on RADWIMPS’ fifth studio album, “Altocorony no Teiri” (Theorem of Altocorony).

It’s a fast-paced track marked by a straightforward guitar sound, and while the message in Noda’s lyrics carries a sense of pain, it also somehow conveys hope.

Compared to other famous songs, it may be relatively less well-known, but if you like aggressive yet wistfully emotional guitar-driven tracks, I’d love for you to try singing it at karaoke.

Aim for a singing style that emphasizes the contrast between the restrained verses and the explosive chorus—add clear dynamics to bring that contrast to life.
