RainSEKAI NO OWARI
This is SEKAI NO OWARI’s 11th major-label single, released in July 2017.
It was written as the theme song for the animated film “Mary and The Witch’s Flower.” I felt it’s a fine piece that conjures up a refreshing sky after the rain.
The string arrangements you can hear throughout the track are lovely, too.
Fukase’s vocals have a slightly high-pitched quality, so some people might hesitate to pick this song at karaoke.
However, the vocal melody itself, like the overall mood of the song, is very gentle, easy to remember, and easy to sing, so please give it a try.
If you aim the resonance toward your upper palate inside your mouth as you sing, you may get a bit closer to his voice, which has a rich presence of higher overtones.
sasanqua (Camellia sasanqua)SEKAI NO OWARI
An encouraging song from SEKAI NO OWARI for those striving toward their dreams.
This track served as the broadcast theme song for NHK’s coverage of the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics and Paralympics.
In the music video, the story follows a younger brother dreaming of his future and an older brother who supports him.
Vocalist Fukase plays the older brother, while actor Ryunosuke Kamiki portrays the younger brother—a pairing that became a hot topic.
It’s a ballad that resonates with anyone working hard, regardless of age.
If you sing it at karaoke, you might end up encouraging someone without even realizing it!
budKobukuro
It’s one of Kobukuro’s biggest hits, released in 2007! The famous story behind this song is that Kobuchi wrote it for his late mother.
With its gentle, soothing melody and lyrics filled with gratitude toward a loved one, it’s so moving that you might find yourself in tears as you listen.
It’s also perfect for karaoke—if two confident male singers perform it, they’re sure to captivate the room.
