Macaroni Empitsu “Someday, In a World With Nothing” MV

In addition to general rock, Macaroni Empitsu is a band with a wide musical range, from psychedelic to hard rock.

For men who like Japanese rock, you could say they’re an extremely popular band.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is Itsuka Nani mo Nai Sekai de.

Although the song sits in an easy-to-sing range of mid1 A to hi A, it still builds excitement properly, and in the chorus you can let out a big voice with a near-shouted feel.

The scat-like section at the end of the chorus starts with a shout, so it’s good to aim for a slightly more vigorous, rough vocal style.

Working Womanmakaroni enpitsu

Working Woman

Despite its light, stylish sound, this track grips you with a sudden, aching poignancy that’s irresistible.

It’s a work by Macaroni Empitsu, a powerhouse band formed by music school graduates.

The song is included on their mini-album “LiKE,” released in February 2019.

It portrays people pushing forward as they find small joys, even while feeling the futility of working days and the constrictions of society.

From a secret stash of sweets in a desk to sigh-inducing everyday moments, anyone will find their own story reflected there.

The city-pop-inspired, sophisticated arrangement blends perfectly with vocalist Hattori’s emotional delivery.

It’s a song that gently stays by your side in spring, as new beginnings start and your heart feels a little tired.

Macaroni Enpitsu also has a wide vocal range, and many of their songs might feel “high” for male singers, but for low-voiced female singers, I think there are plenty of comfortable keys.

The song’s range is fairly contained at E3–B4.

Hattori’s vocals blend a gentle, talk-like delivery with some raspy moments, making it a track packed with the best of Macaroni Enpitsu.

The song is short—about three minutes—so it’s easy to learn; definitely consider adding it to your repertoire! By the way, I’m a Macaroni Enpitsu fan too, and I’ve posted a video on Instagram of me singing “Young Adult,” so please check it out if you’d like.

Stormbound Pair of Birdsmakaroni enpitsu

This is a playful duet that evokes the mood-kayō style of the Showa era, showcasing the wide musical range of Macaroni Enpitsu.

The song features poignant lyrics that liken the uncertain fate of a difficult love to a pair of birds trapped and unable to move in the midst of a storm.

The interplay between vocalist Hattori and the guest vocalist—including spoken lines—creates a dramatic atmosphere, as if watching a short film.

This track is included on the acclaimed album “Otona no Namida,” released in August 2023.

For anyone who has suffered through an intractable love and found themselves frozen in place, listening might bring a bit of solace, as if the song understands that helpless feeling.

It’s a Macaroni Enpitsu number that sparkles like a summer festival and stirs up memories of a tender first love! With scenes of yukata and fireworks, it captures the sweet-and-sour beginning and end of a romance in a catchy melody that really amps up the excitement of summer.

Released in August 2017 as their first CD single, the track is also included on their album CHOSYOKU from the same year.

Why not give it a listen on your way to a festival or when you want to savor the lingering afterglow of summer?

Macaroni Enpitsu "NOW LOADING" Music Video

A sweet and bittersweet love song by Macaroni Empitsu that traces the journey of conveying feelings that are hard to put into words.

It beautifully captures the awkwardness of love and the dilemmas of emotion, carried by a gentle yet powerful melody.

Included on the album “Ima Dakishimeru Tarinai Dake o,” released in March 2025, the song was produced as the theme for the film “My Love Story With Yamada-kun at Lv999.” In collaboration with the movie starring Mizuki Yamashita, it perfectly matches a story that portrays modern romance sparked by gaming.

This track gently stands by those troubled by love or frustrated by unspoken feelings, giving them a soft, encouraging push forward.

This is a song by Macaroni Empitsu that looks back on a radiant youth and sends cheers to those who are living theirs right now.

It was chosen as the theme song for MBS’s broadcast of the 95th Commemorative National High School Baseball Invitational Tournament.

The gentle atmosphere of the sound and the vocals that evoke smiling faces are striking, conveying a positive feeling toward youth.

The brass tones, which seem to evoke a marching band cheering from the stands, are another highlight, and both the lyrics and the overall mood express a heartfelt cheer for high school baseball.
