Over the RainbowDaikoku Maki

Released in 2001, “Niji o Koete” portrays someone striving to move forward after a painful breakup.

Its lyrics convey the strength to overcome sadness, and when combined with the catchy melody and Maki Ohguro’s uniquely powerful vocals, the result is an irresistibly singable, captivating track.

The midsection features sustained high notes and is fairly challenging, but once you clear that part, the rest should let you sing freely.

Rather than focusing solely on vocal technique, try savoring the lyrics as you sing.

Me at 22Abe Natsumi

This is the solo debut single of Natsumi Abe, one of the most popular members of Morning Musume.

Abe herself wrote the lyrics, capturing the genuine feelings of a 22-year-old.

It was also used as the theme song for the film “17-sai: Tabidachi no Futari” (Seventeen: The Two Who Set Out).

Her voice is incredibly soothing.

mermaidAmuro Namie

This is a cover by Namie Amuro of a song released in 1994 by NOKKO, the vocalist of Rebecca, after the band disbanded.

The cover was released in May 2006.

Compared to NOKKO’s original version, which features a relatively high and bright vocal tone, Amuro’s cover is particularly interesting for how it makes use of her slightly lower and fuller voice.

If you’re interested, it’s fun to listen to NOKKO’s original and compare the two.

In a sense, the two singers have highly contrasting vocal qualities, so comparing both versions is also very useful as karaoke study material.

Be sure to choose the one that suits your own voice and give it a try!

When you want to run awayAdachi Yumi

Beloved by a wide range of ages from children to adults, this song is a heartwarming message tune sung by Yumi Adachi.

While portraying the desire to escape from everyday life, its lyrics—which encourage the courage to take a new step—leave a strong impression.

Released in December 1995, it also drew attention as a tie-in with the CX program Ponkikkies.

For many, it’s a nostalgic song they heard in childhood, and when you listen to it again as an adult, it can take on new meaning.

Highly recommended for listeners of all ages.

How about two of them?Miyao Susumu to Nihon no Shachō

Susumu Miyao and Japan’s Presidents: “How about two of them?”
How about two of them?Miyao Susumu to Nihon no Shachō

Miyao Susumu and the Presidents of Japan is a funk band formed in 1986 in a Waseda University music club.

They became the 10th Ikaten King on Miyake Yūji’s Ikasu Band Tengoku and later made their major-label debut on what is now Ki/oon Records.

Their signature song, “Nimai de Dōda,” is a mid-tempo funk track with a bouncy, rolling groove, known for its unique lyrics and lively stage performances.

The members still keep the band going alongside their day jobs, so if you’re interested, why not check out one of their live shows?

Please help us create a portrait.Ie no ura de manbō ga shinderu P

Please help create a portrait / Manbou is dead behind the house P
Please help us create a portrait.Ie no ura de manbō ga shinderu P

As the thumbnail suggests, please have paper and pen ready before listening.

This song is by the popular Vocaloid producer known for wildly unexpected story developments, “Ie no Ura de Manbō ga Shinderu P,” and it was released in 2020.

The idea is to use the lyrics as a reference to create a composite sketch of a purse snatcher who got away.

However, true to Ie no Ura de Manbō ga Shinderu P’s style, the song presents a slew of outrageous facial features.

So, what do you think… will it actually end up looking like a human?
