SUPER RAINBOWMISIA

Original video of the Japan national table tennis team (MISIA “SUPER RAINBOW”)

A bright, radiant sound that’s incredibly catchy and sticks in your head—this is a classic cheer song.

As you can see from the video, it was specially written as the official support song for Japan’s national table tennis team.

The energetic synth brass, bouncing guitar chops, and springy bassline all give it a sporty feel.

MISIA is strongly associated with R&B and bluesy ballads, so listening to this track will likely give you a fresh, different impression of her.

Love’s Form feat. HIDEMISIA

MISIA – Shape of Love feat. HIDE (GReeeeN) (Official Music Video)

This is a heartwarming song that warmly expresses the depth of love and the bond with someone special.

Written and composed by GReeeeN and arranged by Seiji Kameda, the piece features MISIA’s expansive, powerful vocals that beautifully convey the mutual feelings of caring for one another.

Since its release in August 2018, it has garnered attention as the theme song for the drama “Gibo to Musume no Blues,” and later, in 2020, it was also chosen for a SUBARU commercial.

When reflecting on the bonds with loved ones who share life’s joys and challenges, MISIA’s gentle voice resonates like a reassuring push on your back—making it a song you’ll want to listen to with family, a partner, or dear friends.

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.

Fleur de la PassionMISIA

Fleur de la Passion

A passionate song performed by MISIA cheers on athletes in their pursuits.

With a powerful voice that ignites the listener’s heart, she sings of the courage and hope needed to venture into the unknown.

The grand musical arrangement, embodying the spirit of the Olympics, and the moving lyrics are compelling.

Released digitally in July 2024 as the Nippon TV network’s 2024 Athlete Support Song, the track carries aspirations for the Paris Olympics, featuring outstanding performances by an orchestra of over 40 members and a gospel choir.

It’s perfect for pumping yourself up before a match or finding encouragement when you feel like giving up—give it a listen.

AngelMISIA

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.
