Over the Rainbow is a song composed by Osamu Sakata, who served as NHK’s “Uta no Onii-san” (the singing big brother) for eight years starting in 1985.

It has been loved for a long time, so many parents may already know it.

It’s an uplifting song that feels like a blessing for bright days ahead.

It’s also recommended to add simple hand and body movements when performing it for children.

Not only does it work as a cheer-up song for kids, but it also makes a great, energizing gift for parents.

The classic song Niji no Mukō ni, also featured on Okaasan to Issho, is another great recommendation.

This pop-style children’s song, with a hint of Showa-era kayōkyoku, should fit well for slightly older preschoolers.

Haida-san also praised it in a video site comment: “Osamu Onii-san’s songs are all warm and deeply moving.” Although the tempo is on the faster side, it might be worth taking on the challenge! There are moments in the song where children hold hands and do the “Kono yubi tomare” (everyone gather here) call, and using these well could make for a fun performance opportunity!

Niko Niko Happy SongSakushi: Mine Katsumasa / Sakkyoku: Okada Rikio

The unit Katsuriki, made up of male childcare workers Mine Katsumasa and Rikiho Okada, performs the song “Nikoniko Happy Song.” Written and composed by the two of them, this piece is perfect for entrance ceremonies where new children gather! In the nerve‑wracking setting of an entrance ceremony, it brightens the mood and helps ease the children’s tension.

It’s a song that transforms those nervous jitters into excited butterflies, as they imagine all the fun that awaits them after starting school.

The cheerful melody will have hearts and bodies dancing before you know it!

As a heartwarming song that’s fun to sing, “Ningen tte Ii na” is a great recommendation.

It’s known as the ending theme of the anime “Manga Nihon Mukashibanashi.” In recent years, it has been gaining renewed attention thanks to reruns and DVD releases.

The lyrics, which depict human life from the perspective of animals, are not only comforting but also a chance to rediscover the happiness in everyday life.

When singing it as a chorus, try getting everyone excited by focusing on the final phrase.

The song “Niji,” which everyone can sing together, is a simple, warm piece that evokes a sense of nostalgia.

When it rains, we sometimes feel sad because we can’t hang out the laundry or the events we were looking forward to get postponed.

But when a beautiful rainbow stretches across the sparkling sky after the rain, those sad feelings just blow away.

Even children who don’t like rain will surely start looking forward to the clear skies after singing this song.

Be sure to try singing it on a rainy day.

Even If I Quit Being Human (solo) / Yoeko Kurahashi
Even if I quit being humanKurahashi Yoeko

This is quite a heavy love song, isn’t it… A track that says it will keep loving you, whether you’re a person or even a bug.

Passionate words of love are delightful at first, but when you realize in the latter half that the affection is unhinged, doesn’t it send shivers down anyone’s spine? Rather than wishing, “Come with me when I die,” the outright declaration, “I’ll take you with me,” is rather frightening, isn’t it? It may be better to think of this not as affection, but as being cursed by a woman’s love.

Rebellion at 22Kasamura Tōta

Vocaloid producer Tota Kasamura sublimates the stinging parts within the heart into beautiful melodies.

The 2019 song “22-year-old Rebellion” is a track that sings about feelings on what it means to become an “adult.” True to Kasamura’s style, the delicate choice of words pairs beautifully with the piano accompaniment.

The highest note in this piece is hihiA, A5.

Because the range is quite high, it’s safe to say this is a difficult song.

It will likely be right on the edge of whether you can hit the notes or not.

Please give it a try.
