Shizuka Kudo / Mizore [Official Video] from “Meikyō Shisui”

A poignant song that likens lingering feelings for a past love to sleet, neither quite rain nor snow.

Shizuka Kudo’s “Mizore” was released in July 2024 and is included on the album Meikyō Shisui.

The track was created by the popular band wacci.

The music video, featuring Koki, her younger daughter, and actor Junki Tozuka, drew attention.

With delicate vocals, it captures emotions wavering between being “someone special” and “part of everyday life.” It’s a ballad you’ll want to hear if you’ve ever related to the ache of a love that just won’t work out.

Ken Hirai, one of Japan’s leading singer-songwriters, released the single “Missin’ you ~It will break my heart~” on January 30, 2002, which drew attention as a collaboration with internationally renowned producer Babyface.

The song conveys lost love and deep sorrow through Hirai’s unique sensibility.

In particular, the pain of parting and the strength to keep holding on to love resonate deeply with listeners.

Hirai’s warm vocals and piercing melody may offer comfort to those mourning a lost love.

As the song also touches on the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in the United States, it carries an even deeper message.

It is a track I strongly recommend to anyone overwhelmed by grief or unable to forget a love they have lost.

me+youHirai Dai

“me+you,” with its seaside-inspired sound design and sweet lyrics, is lovely.

It’s included on the 2019 album THE GIFT.

The song averages around mid2F and tops out at hiD.

Because the overall range is on the higher side for a typical female vocal range, it’s recommended for women or people with higher voices.

The talk-like singing style leaves a strong impression, so keeping that delivery in mind may work well.

With its gentle, easy-to-sing mood, it should help ease nerves and fit not only in karaoke settings but anywhere you perform.

A hill with a view of the harborHirano Aiko

A postwar masterpiece that gently sings of a beautiful port town.

With its wistful melody and emotionally rich lyrics, Aiko Hirano superbly conveys the stirrings of love and the ache of parting.

On a hill overlooking the harbor, as cherry blossoms fall, the delicate feelings of someone thinking of a departing lover are vividly depicted, giving the song a universal appeal that anyone can relate to.

Since its release in April 1947, it became Victor’s first hit of the postwar era, selling a total of 450,000 copies.

Many artists, including Naomi Chiaki, Mina Aoe, and Hibari Misora, have covered it.

It’s a perfect song for the season when spring is in the air, offering a heartwarming moment filled with nostalgia.

It is a wonderful piece for seniors to share a calm, reminiscence-filled time together.

This song by Lila Ikuta, who is also active as a member of the popular music duo YOASOBI, was released in July 2023.

It was selected as the commercial song for Topvalu’s “Mogu Mogu Ajiwau Soup.” While Ikuta often sings complex, Vocaloid-style melodies in YOASOBI, in this solo track she performs a relatively simple melody, retaining the appeal of her slightly impersonal vocal tone.

Because of that, it should be easier for the general public to aim for a high score if they choose it for karaoke.

However, the vocal range used in the melody does extend fairly high, so if you’re not comfortable singing in the upper register—particularly with falsetto—please keep that in mind when you try it.

For rhythm, sticking as closely as possible to the beat of the backing track and aiming for precise timing is, I think, the quickest path to a high score.

“Mia’s Doll Manor” is a song woven with Gothic elements.

The lyrics, which portray the dollmaking protagonist’s complex emotions, are striking, conveying a growing yearning and a frustration with their own powerlessness.

No matter how many they craft, they cannot instill life… yet they remain fixated on dolls—what lies in that heart? Released in April 2024 as Ren’s 19th work, it pairs beautifully with the world envisioned by Hitokomoru.

Be sure to listen to the companion piece told from a doll’s perspective, “Doll’s Abyss,” as well.

Everyone, everyone is shining.Yugeda Kensuke

Riding on a cherry-blossom-colored breeze, this heartwarming song by Kensuke Yugeda gently sings of the hopeful arrival of spring.

It carries a message of encouragement for children taking their first steps forward, conveying a sense of anticipation for a shining future.

Its melody, expressing both endearing freshness and the courage to walk toward one’s dreams, tenderly nestles against the listener’s heart.

The piece is included on the album “Shiawase ni Naare” and is a beloved song performed at entrance ceremonies and welcome events for new students in elementary schools across Japan.

Since June 2018, it has been passed down in schools nationwide, and through more than 2,000 school concerts, Mr.

Yugeda has delivered it directly to children.

It is a springtime song brimming with joy, one we hope new students, teachers, and families will listen to.
