ARASHI – Love so sweet [Official Music Video]

Arashi’s 18th single, released in 2007.

It became a major hit as the theme song for the TV drama Hana Yori Dango 2 (Returns), starring Jun Matsumoto.

Selling about 204,000 copies in its first week and approximately 429,000 copies over the year, this refreshing pop tune is marked by its bright, catchy melody that anyone can hum along to.

The vocal range isn’t too wide and the melody flows smoothly, making it a perfect choice for karaoke.

Sing it at a group mixer and it’s sure to lift the mood—give it a try!

A signature song by Ayaka that sings of feelings for a loved one far away.

The gentle ballad’s lyrics portray a poignant image of a woman living bravely while battling loneliness.

Released in September 2006, it topped the Oricon Weekly Chart and was featured as the theme song for NHK’s “Mirai Kansoku: Tsunagaru TV @ Human” as well as in an au commercial.

Keep a clear, composed vocal tone and pour your feelings into the simple melody as you sing.

If you perform it toward the end of a karaoke session, just when everyone’s in the mood for something a bit calmer, you might even captivate the men in the room.

StoryAI38rank/position

Known as AI’s signature song, this dramatic R&B ballad warmly celebrates the importance of bonds amid the meetings and farewells of life.

Carried by a piano melody, the lyrics portray a protagonist determined to move forward, gently resonating with listeners’ hearts.

Released as a single in May 2005, it was featured as the theme for Fuji TV’s “Flower Center” and in commercials for Morinaga’s Jelly Weider, earning love across generations.

It’s perfect for those mellow moments at a group karaoke outing, and with its easy-to-remember melody line, it’s a reliable, go-to classic.

Released in June 1992, this is Chisato Moritaka’s 16th single.

When she debuted, she arrived with the catchphrase “Declaration of Non-Talent!” Fittingly for one of her songs, you don’t need any great vocal prowess to sing this one (lol).

Keep it light, breezy, and cute, and you’ll be just fine.

This track was also used as the theme song for the Nippon TV drama “Matta Nashi!” The melody is very simple and easy to sing, and the lyrics are memorable and easy to learn.

It might be fun to compete on scores with friends by doing a one-take on this song!

travelingUtada Hikaru40rank/position

It was released in 2001 as Hikaru Utada’s ninth single.

The song was used in NTT DoCoMo’s FOMA commercial and was produced under the concept of being an “uplifting song.” It reached number one on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and achieved million-seller status.

Kimagure Romantic is a song that makes everyone want to sing along.

There’s a simple bit of choreography in the chorus, so it’s guaranteed to hype up a karaoke session, and it’s a song that’s fun for listeners too! The overall vocal range is A3–D5; the highest note only appears briefly in the chorus, so the range is manageable overall.

The A melody isn’t high, so it’s good to sing it lightly, almost like you’re speaking.

From the B melody it gets more rhythmic, so keep a solid sense of tempo and be careful not to rush.

If you calmly cut off notes where they should end, you’ll lock into the groove.

The chorus has choreography and is easy to get carried away with, so be careful not to speed up the tempo.

At a karaoke event held by the vocal training school I used to belong to, one of the students sang this song, and everyone started doing the chorus moves—it got super lively and was a lot of fun.

Definitely give this song a try!

PRINCESS PRINCESS opened the door for girls’ bands.

Many women in their 50s probably admired them.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is “The Hottest Summer in the World.” This track is notable for its extremely catchy vocal line.

While the range is relatively high at mid2A to hiD, it’s quite narrow.

Since there aren’t any difficult phrases in any section, if you can keep your pitch steady, it’s definitely possible to aim for a score in the 90s at karaoke.
