Sakura Weather and a Time Machine with Hatsune MikuAdo29rank/position

[Ado] Cherry Blossom Weather and a Time Machine with Hatsune Miku

This is a pop ballad in which a wistful piano melody and strings unfold dramatically.

Featuring the ethereal blend of Ado’s vocals with Hatsune Miku’s, the song was first performed at the National Stadium live concert in 2024.

Paired with a beautiful scene of fluttering cherry blossoms, the lyrics that long for an irretrievable past are deeply affecting.

The unfulfilled wish to turn back time perfectly overlaps with the poignant atmosphere of spring.

It’s a spring song that touches the heart, highlighting Ado’s delicate, carefully woven vocals—distinct from her more powerful singing style.

Ideal for posting a nostalgically toned story alongside treasured photos.

ValueAdo30rank/position

【Ado】Value

Ado’s new song “Value.” Lately she’s been releasing a lot of rock-leaning tracks, and this one also has strong alternative rock elements, with the chorus reaching quite a high level of intensity.

The toughest aspect of this song is, above all, the falsetto.

It’s not just that there’s a lot of falsetto or that the notes are high; the falsetto often comes right after a shout, demanding extremely precise vocal cord control.

Being able to sing it while maintaining vocal power is probably something only the top 1% of the population could do.

[Ado] Ibara

Ado’s “Ibara” was chosen as the theme song for 2023.

Released in May 2023 as her 20th digital-only single, the track also drew attention for being provided by Vaundy.

It’s a rock tune that showcases Ado’s powerful vocals, resulting in a compelling piece.

While it conveys the spirit of a challenge that’s anything but straightforward, its refreshing melody brings a sense of clarity to the start of a new day.

Why not kick off a crisp, invigorating morning by listening to “Ibara,” a song that can energize you from the moment you wake up?

DIGNITYAdo33rank/position

【Ado】DIGNITY

This piece was written as the theme song for the film “The Silent Service” and released digitally in September 2023.

It drew major attention for featuring a song provided by B’z, one of Japan’s leading rock duos, with lyrics by Koshi Inaba and composition by Takahiro Matsumoto.

Centered on the theme of “dignity,” it’s a weighty and grand ballad that showcases Ado’s mercurial vocal charm—from delicate whisper tones to powerful shouts.

Also included on the album “Zanmu,” the song is a challenging one that spans a wide vocal range and demands high expressive ability.

If you support the soaring long tones in the chorus with solid diaphragmatic breathing and sing them out, you’re sure to deeply move listeners.

Carefully trace the nuances of emotion and surrender yourself to the overwhelming sense of scale as you sing.

ChocolakatabraAdo34rank/position

[Ado] Chocolacadabra

This irresistibly addictive dance tune pairs sweet, melt-in-your-mouth highs with bitter, low-end contrast for a delightfully pleasing effect.

Produced as the commemorative song for Lotte’s 60th anniversary in the chocolate business, it whisks listeners away into a magical soundscape.

Released as a single by Ado in January 2024 and later included on the album “Zanmu,” the track drew major attention for the collaboration between composer TAKU INOUE and lyricist Camellia.

Ado’s shapeshifting vocals ride the rhythmic beat as if savoring one chocolate flavor after another.

It’s perfect for boosting that buoyant spring mood or giving you a push as you embark on a new chapter in life!

The Ten CommandmentsAdo35rank/position

[Ado] The Ten Commandments (1984) (Lyric Video)

When you think of Ado, her shouts in the mid-to-high range and the expressive high notes probably come to mind, right? While those aspects are certainly part of her appeal, her lower register actually holds a great deal of charm as well.

In her cover of Akina Nakamori’s classic “Jukkai (The Ten Commandments),” you can fully savor Ado’s rich low tones.

Since it’s an older song, the vocal line is very straightforward.

That simplicity leaves little room for the kinds of tricks you find in modern pop, but it also makes it easy to follow the pitch—so consider adding it to your repertoire.
