DREAMS COME TRUE – “Nando Demo”

A “tear-jerking cheer song” known for Miwa Yoshida’s passionate lyrics and uplifting message, it was the theme song for the third season of the drama “Emergency Room 24 Hours” and was also used in a Sumitomo Life commercial.

It’s a classic and one of DREAMS COME TRUE’s signature songs, often sung by many people at karaoke.

In particular, “Nando Demo” has an upbeat feel and gives the impression that it should be sung clearly and briskly.

Since the vocal range is a bit high, I think you won’t hit the high notes unless you really lift your eyebrows while singing.

Try singing as if projecting into the distance, with your energy slightly amped up.

DREAMS COME TRUE – “Give Me a Gentle Kiss”

Yasashii Kiss o Shite has the vibe of an adult kayōkyoku song.

With Miwa Yoshida’s breathy, soft vocals and beautiful lingering endings, it’s perfect for practicing vibrato.

Start with clear, firm diction, then gently add a breathy, spoken feel and a light wobble.

If you keep too much tension, your throat will tighten on the high notes before the chorus, so relax and avoid tensing your body.

For the A melody, imagine placing the voice right in front of you as you sing; your tone will naturally start to shimmer.

DREAMS COME TRUE – Future Prediction Map II ~VERSION '07~ (from Live from DWL 2015 Live Ver.)

This is one of DREAMS COME TRUE’s signature songs, renowned as a landmark love ballad in the J-pop scene.

Released in November 1989, it closes out the classic album “LOVE GOES ON…”.

Its warm worldview—depicting everyday, unassuming scenes and hope for the future—and its gentle, beautiful melody are especially appealing.

In 1993, it was featured in a SONY “Handycam” commercial, and has since been widely cherished through numerous tie-ins and cover versions.

With its calm tempo and singable lines that build dramatically toward the chorus, it’s perfect for singing your heart out at karaoke.

It’s a classic known across generations, so you can choose it freely and enjoy it in gatherings with a wide range of people.

DREAMS COME TRUE – HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY (from ATTACK25 TOUR 2014 Live Ver.)

When it comes to DREAMS COME TRUE’s birthday songs, this is the one, right? This track, included on the album “MAGIC” released in December 1993, never fails to put you in a happy mood.

The heartfelt wish to be the very first to celebrate right after the date changes comes through so clearly.

The handclaps and chorus-centered sound really heighten the bubbly excitement.

If you sing this for a surprise for a friend, it’s sure to liven up the moment and make them happy!

Osaka LoverDREAMS COME TRUE5rank/position

DREAMS COME TRUE – "Osaka LOVER"

It’s a tie-in song for Universal Studios Japan’s attraction “Hollywood Dream – The Ride.” It’s said to be a love song that portrays the bittersweet feelings of a woman in a long-distance relationship, using Osaka dialect lyrics and a vibe described as “adorably silly with a touch of melancholy.” When you sing it, pay attention to the bouncy rhythm.

It would be a shame if the A-melody sounded flat, so it’s recommended to keep a solid sense of rhythm as you sing.

The chorus starts with the syllable “na,” so the pronunciation should have a slightly nasal quality.

It seems better to come in a bit earlier than you think.

Since the overall range is on the higher side, keep your pitch from dropping by lifting your eyebrows and facial muscles, projecting crisply as if resonating in your head at all times.

If you sing it cutely in Osaka dialect, everyone around you is sure to feel uplifted!
