[MV] RED HILL / CHAGE and ASKA

When it comes to artists who enjoyed immense popularity during the peak era of CD sales in Japanese music in the 80s and 90s, CHAGE and ASKA come to mind! “RED HILL” is included on the album of the same title, “RED HILL.” In the lyrics, there’s a whispered “What should I do?”, expressing the inner conflict of choosing between options, with the fear that the choice might lead to hell.

Many people find CHAGE and ASKA’s songs hard to sing because of the high notes, but this one is mid-tempo, so I think it’s singable!

A wonderfully charming song by CHAGE and ASKA that, despite being a gently delivered ballad, topped the Oricon charts for two consecutive weeks.

The lyrics, which simply wish happiness for a loved one, are pure.

The gently moving ballad “Hajimari wa Itsumo Ame” by CHAGE and ASKA.

On streaming services you can only hear ASKA’s solo version, but on YouTube there are videos of the two of them singing together, so definitely check them out! The overall vocal range of the song is a relatively relaxed C#3–G#4, so it should be singable without too much strain.

Since the chorus goes a bit higher, lifting your facial muscles and resonating in your head can make it easier to hit the pitches.

Also, consciously articulating the vowels will add emphasis and make it feel great to sing!

[MV] Merry X'mas to the World / CHAGE and ASKA

It’s a classic Christmas song created by CHAGE and ASKA, where the warmth and emotion well up from just the way ASKA and CHAGE trade lines in the very first verse.

Released in 1992, when CHAGE and ASKA had become a top act both in name and reality with a string of record-breaking hits, this track closes out their masterful album GUYS.

Spanning over seven minutes, it’s an epic whose calm mood and dapper, refined arrangement give it the essence of an adult Christmas song.

The chorus sung by children in London, where the recording took place, fits perfectly.

The lyrics by the genius ASKA carry a deep message—not merely about enjoying Christmas.

Be sure to sing it while taking in the meaning of the words.
