Holy Hold MeMISIA

MISIA – Holy Hold Me （Official HD Music Video）

This is a song composed by Toshinobu Kubota with lyrics by MISIA.

MISIA sings the lead vocals, and Kubota joins on backing vocals.

It’s a Christmas love song for thinking of someone on a holy day, carried by powerful vocals.

I want to see you nowMISIA

MISIA – Aitakute Ima (Official HD Music Video)

Released in 2009 as MISIA’s 23rd single.

It was used as the theme song for TBS’s Sunday drama “JIN,” and MISIA wrote it specifically for the show with the theme of life.

This masterpiece conveys the weight of life, the bonds between people, the joy of having someone you wish to see, and the feelings you have for that person.

I miss you nowMISIA

MISIA – Aitakute Ima (Official HD Music Video)

Those days when we were in a long-distance relationship.

Every night, I lay in bed crying, wishing I could see you.

There were times when I couldn’t bear the loneliness and just kept crying.

But in those moments, this song gently supported my heart.

This song is my treasure.

MISIA’s songs add a chic and romantic touch to weddings.

“Happiness Forever” and “Everything” are popular, but this song is also recommended for a Japanese-style entrance.

It brings a sophisticated feel to the moment when entering in a kimono with a Western-style hairstyle.

It’s also great for night weddings.

Butterfly ButterflyMISIA

MISIA – Butterfly Butterfly （Official Music Video）

MISIA has worked on a wide range of songs, including some uptempo dance tracks.

Among them, the one I especially recommend is “Butterfly Butterfly.” Inspired by electro swing—a modern style of jazz popular in Belgium and France—it’s arranged with an overall catchy, groovy feel.

While it does require some attention to a slightly staccato delivery, it doesn’t demand foundational vocal skills like sustained notes or vibrato, so among her works, it can be considered relatively easy to sing.

EDGE OF THIS WORLDMISIA

MISIA – EDGE OF THIS WORLD （Official Music Video）

When it comes to MISIA, her serene yet grand ballads are especially memorable.

However, she has also released some electronic dance numbers.

Among them, the one I particularly recommend is “EDGE OF THIS WORLD.” It begins as a conventional ballad, but once the chorus hits, electronic sounds come in and the mood shifts to a cybernetic feel.

With fewer long sustained notes and an easy-to-follow rhythm, it’s one of the most singable tracks in MISIA’s catalog.

Be sure to check it out.

HOPE & DREAMSMISIA

MISIA – HOPE & DREAMS (TOKYO RAINBOW WEEK 2014 PV)

When people think of MISIA, many probably imagine richly expressive, heartfelt songs.

Of course, it’s true that she has many such tracks, but she also has some up-tempo dance numbers.

Among them, the one I especially recommend is “HOPE & DREAMS.” Crafted as an up-tempo dance tune with a Eurobeat feel, it’s easy to groove to despite the fast pace.

It’s a perfect choice for those looking for a song that’s light and easy to sing.
