Season in the SunTUBE64rank/position
As a refreshing classic that evokes the end of summer, it continues to resonate with many people.
Known as one of TUBE’s signature songs, it was released in June 1986 and was also used in a Kirin Beer commercial.
It features an urban vibe that conjures images of the Shonan coast and a distinctive sound shaped by maj7 chord progressions.
The lyrics, expressing the bittersweetness of summer romance, poignantly capture a fleeting moment of youth and convey a desire to stop time and let a beautiful instant last forever.
Hanni from NewJeans delivered a stunning cover on a Japanese TV program, bringing renewed attention to this masterpiece not only among its original generation of fans but also younger audiences.
CHA-CHA-CHAIshii Akemi65rank/position
Akemi Ishii, a singer who was scouted while working part-time as a club vocalist, made her debut soon after.
Her first single, “CHA-CHA-CHA,” known as a cover of a Finzi-Contini song, was chosen as the theme song for the TV drama “Danjo 7-nin Natsu Monogatari” (Seven Men and Women: Summer Story).
Its atmosphere evokes the nightlife vibe, making it perfect for karaoke.
For those in their 50s—the generation who lived through that era—it’s a pop tune you’ll want to keep in your repertoire, one that lets you sink into the memories of the time.
Just by you being herekome kome CLUB66rank/position
Kome Kome Club is a nine-member band that rose to popularity with their glamorous live performances and now continues at its own pace while releasing new music.
Their 13th single “Kimi ga Iru Dake de,” released as a double A-side with “Aishiteru,” was used as the theme song for the TV drama “Sugao no Mama de.” Despite its catchy and refreshing melody, the overall key is low, making it relatively easy for men in their 50s to sing.
As a song that achieved double million sales and is widely known across generations, it’s a pop tune well worth adding to your karaoke repertoire.
UFOpinku redii67rank/position
This single by Pink Lady, released in 1977, became their biggest hit and was also used in a commercial for Yakisoba U.F.O., which had already been on the market at the time.
With outfits, choreography, lyrics, and overall vibe that were innovative for that era, every aspect was so striking that it became a social phenomenon—most children could sing and dance to it.
It’s the kind of song that would bring a group of people in their 50s together in a lively sing-and-dance frenzy.
Like tonight’s moonElefanto Kashimashi68rank/position
It’s a deeply moving masterpiece that powerfully sings of passion for the future while gazing into everyday feelings of emptiness and loneliness.
Set against the backdrop of a city at dusk, it portrays the solitude and struggles of people living in an urban landscape, yet conveys a strong will to keep looking forward and moving on.
The soulful vocals unique to Elephant Kashimashi and the melody that resonates with the heart are beautifully in harmony.
Released in July 1997, the song was used as the theme for the Fuji TV drama “Because the Moon Shines at Night,” and was also included on the album “Run Toward Tomorrow – Moonlit Songs.” In 2017, it was performed in the band’s first appearance on the NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen, winning over even more listeners.
It’s a track that will evoke deep empathy when you feel lost in life or spend a night thinking of someone dear.
Summer Days of 1993class69rank/position
A love song that beautifully blends a refreshing sense of the season with sweet feelings of romance, resonating deep in the heart.
Released by class in April 1993, this piece gently describes a man’s budding love for a longtime female friend, set against summer scenery.
From a male perspective, the nascent feelings by the water and the fresh surprises, paired with a calm melodic line, create an atmosphere that evokes nostalgic memories.
Featured on the album “Mellow Prism,” it was used as the theme song for Saison Card commercials and as the opening theme for the drama “Kimi to Itsumademo.” It’s a recommended track for those who want to renew their feelings for someone special with the arrival of a refreshing season, or simply spend time in a tranquil state of mind.
BOY MEETS GIRLTRF70rank/position
TRF, a five-member co-ed dance and vocal group that earned immense popularity with high-quality performances powerful enough to turn any venue into a disco.
Their 7th single, “BOY MEETS GIRL,” which was hastily produced at the request of Coca-Cola, is notable for its driving techno sound.
Because the melody is simple, it’s easy to sing even for people of that generation when choosing it at karaoke.
Featuring an ensemble that epitomizes the TK sound of the 1990s and elevates the mood, it stands as one of TRF’s signature songs.
