Effeminate / Golden Bomber – Music Video

It’s a bona fide heartbreak song.

But no matter how many times you listen, it never gets old.

I think it’s an eternal classic of breakup songs.

It’s a track where everyone can dance the chorus choreography together and wash away the pain.

Even though it’s a breakup song, it still gets you hyped.

TULIP “Kokoro no Tabi” (Lyric Video)

It’s a big hit by Tulip.

The melody line is gentle and the range isn’t high, so I think it’s easy to sing! By the way, “Kokoro no Tabi” has been covered by Masaharu Fukuyama and many others, so it can be fun to look for a version you like.

Tulip’s songs have a choral feel with a relaxed tempo, and there are parts that really draw listeners in when you sing them, which I find very appealing.

Since the range is easy to sing, be careful not to strain your throat.

If you keep your eyebrows slightly raised and project your voice into the distance, your vocal cords will resonate and it will be easier to stay on pitch!

BARBEE BOYS - Close Your Eyes and Come Here

The distinctive contrast of the male–female twin vocals and a guitar riff with an equally commanding presence really catch the ear.

The whirlwind, ever-shifting melody—made possible by the twin vocals—is guaranteed to boost your energy while driving.

It’s a powerful rock tune that’s sure to bring back memories of youth for those in their 50s.

SARD UNDERGROUND “Are You Sane About That Marriage?” MV

This is the fourth digital single by the three-woman rock band SARD UNDERGROUND, released in July 2023.

It was selected as the opening theme for the TOKYO MX drama “Sono Kekkon, Shouki Desu ka?” (Are You Sane to Marry?).

As SARD UNDERGROUND originated as a ZARD tribute band, the song strongly reflects ZARD’s style.

The vocal melody is very straightforward and easy to remember, making it a tune many people can casually hum along to.

Throughout the song, singing lightly and without tension is the key to making it sound good, so please give it a try.
