HANABIMr.Children

Mr.Children「HANABI」 Tour2015 REFLECTION Live

“HANABI” by Mr.Children is a song that has been loved for many years.

It was chosen as the theme song for the popular drama “Code Blue: Doctor Heli Emergency Lifesaving,” which aired as a series and was even released as a feature film.

Besides the quality of the music itself, the fact that Tomohisa Yamashita starred in the drama also made it widely known among many women.

This song could be called an anthem for life—it’s something you’ll want to listen to when you’re tired or when you need to push yourself.

Sing it for those who are worn out, such as people studying for entrance exams or job hunting.

A self-destructive, self-centered (adolescent), self-reliant boyRADWIMPS

RADWIMPS – A Boy with Adolescent Self-Destructive, Self-Centered, Self-Dependency Disorder [Japanese Translation] [With Lyrics] [Spanish Sub] [Romaji]

These lyrics show a different side from the current RADWIMPS.

In that moratorium period of changing from a child to an adult, you feel like straying from society, and you can sense the desperate feelings of young people who don’t want to be ordinary.

Give it a listen when you’re feeling self-destructive.

SHE’S – Letter【MV】

Many men might recognize this song, which was also used in a commercial for Nintendo Switch’s Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

It’s a bittersweet yet warm ballad that portrays connections with loved ones.

The track was included on the 2020 album Tragicomedy.

Because it’s a quiet ballad with a strong atmosphere, it can be a bit challenging to sing, but it’s well-known and likely to be appreciated by women!

back number – Horizon

In August 2020, back number’s song “Suiheisen” was surprise-released on YouTube.

It’s a cheer song created for the high school students who were organizing the Inter-High School Championships, which had been canceled.

Knowing that background makes the song all the more moving, but it’s also a highly recommended number that resonates as a karaoke song for male singers.

For those enduring hardships or going through tough times right now, it really hits home—some might even be moved to tears.

I’d love to hear someone sing a song like this coolly; I really want to listen to that.

Atonement

This song is well-known, isn’t it? The lyrics are based on a real experience of a woman I know.

They express the feelings of not knowing how to accept an apology from the person responsible after she lost her husband in a traffic accident.

It also seems the offender is a very sincere person and has been sending compensation without fail.

Summer Colorsyuzu

Natsuiro – Yuzu (Full)

When I think of refreshing songs that men can sing, Yuzu’s tracks come to mind.

Their bright, poppy, refreshing melodies pair beautifully with the duo’s pleasant vocals.

Even from a female perspective, I think few people find Yuzu’s songs hard to get into.

Among their tracks, the most popular “Natsuiro” is one that almost everyone knows, and its upbeat vibe makes it easy to groove to, so I recommend it.

If a man is going to sing it, the key is quite high, so lowering it a bit in the settings might make it easier to sing.

Yuzu “Sakuragicho” Music Video

While it’s a bittersweet song, it still has that uplifting Yuzu quality.

Since it’s set in Sakuragichō, Yokohama, listening to it at a date spot there might leave you feeling a little wistful.

It’s a soothing track, highlighted by Yuzu’s beautiful vocals.
