[Alexandros]’s “Wataridori” is a perfect fit for older kindergarteners who want to dance at the sports day! Released as a single in March 2015, it’s well-loved as the theme song for the film “Ake Garasu (Akegarasu)” and in several commercials.
Inspired by migratory birds soaring through the sky, the song’s exhilarating sound and high-tone vocals are incredibly appealing.
It conveys determination to move forward and a refreshing feeling, instantly boosting listeners’ excitement.
The chorus features a melody that feels like the view suddenly opening up, making the children’s energetic dancing shine even brighter and filling the entire venue with emotion.
Choose this track for an unforgettable, amazing dance performance!
dance hallMrs. GREEN APPLE23rank/position

A pop dance number by Mrs.
GREEN APPLE.
It became a hot topic thanks to its flashy music video where the members themselves show off their dance moves! The overall vocal range is A3 to F#5, and aside from the very last high note in the chorus, it’s a range most male singers can handle.
If you consciously keep your energy high, your facial muscles and eyebrows will naturally lift, making it easier to project your voice! The rhythm is distinctive—if you feel it with a bouncy swing or count it in double-time, you’ll likely find it easier to groove and sing along.
For the high notes at the end of the melody, don’t be afraid—charge in with momentum! Aim to let it all out and project your voice confidently!
Dancing HeroOginome Yōko24rank/position

Known as one of Yoko Oginome’s signature works, this up-tempo dance tune has been loved across generations.
Released as a single in November 1985, it is a Japanese-lyric cover of a disco song by British singer Angie Gold.
It was also used as an insert song in the TV Asahi drama special “Madonna-sensei wa Rock ’n’ Roller!”.
The vocal line is simple with few high notes, and its catchy groove makes it easy to pull off, so it’s a pleasure to sing at karaoke.
In 2017, it enjoyed a resurgence thanks to a high school dance team’s “bubble-era” dance, becoming a popular track for dance videos as well.
It’s a number that can get people of all ages excited.
PERFECT HUMANRADIO FISH25rank/position

RADIO FISH, the creators of an EDM party tune that’s a huge hit at school sports festivals, deliver confident, addictive tracks that blend playfulness and humor into a new era of dance music.
Their powerful performances by a uniquely individual lineup and the briskly flowing lyrics are full of charm that makes everyone—from kids to adults—want to dance.
Released in December 2015, this song was performed at the 67th NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen the following year and skyrocketed in popularity.
While portraying leader Atsuhiko Nakata as a flawless figure, it unfolds a poppy, comical world.
It’s the perfect track for getting a big crowd hyped at sports days or dance events.
Move your body with full energy together as one, and you’ll create wonderful memories filled with smiles!
Zunpa Ondo26rank/position

It’s a lively, cheerful festival song that spreads a bright, bustling atmosphere.
Packed with elements kids can connect with right away—like twirling their bodies and moving their arms and legs briskly—it features a light, upbeat tempo.
Drums and flutes boost the rhythm, and the continual development makes you smile as you move along.
You’ll also enjoy a sing-along-friendly melody that naturally makes you want to hum while matching the dance moves.
The changing sections keep things interesting, so it never gets dull to listen to.
It’s a perfect highlight for summer events or Bon Odori at preschools, bringing the whole venue together as one.
This energetic track, great for dancing with children, is also ideal for creating lasting summer memories.
Hyokkori Hyoutan-jima27rank/position

The puppet show Hyokkori Hyotan-jima, which aired in the 1960s.
This song of the same title, released as the show’s theme, has been sung by many artists—including Morning Musume—and is a timeless classic widely known across generations.
Let’s dance a Bon Odori to this song that everyone, from children to adults, knows! We recommend adding choreography that sways like an island drifting on the sea or like gently swimming through the waves.
Since the tempo is a bit fast, incorporating bigger movements and traveling steps rather than intricate motions will help you enjoy dancing without getting too caught up in the choreography!
Heavy rotationAKB4828rank/position

When it comes to songs from the Heisei era that represent Japanese idols, “Heavy Rotation” is the one.
Its choreography focuses more on arm movements than full-body action, so there aren’t many difficult dance techniques—its approachable, anyone-can-dance style is part of the charm.
In particular, the beginning of the chorus is a series of poses broken into several counts, making it easy for beginners to memorize.
For example, on the lyric “boku wa” (“I”), you point to yourself with your thumb; there are many moves closely tied to the lyrics, so beginners can enjoy dancing and learn it easily.
The difficulty level is low, and it’s a song you can have fun dancing to while riding the beat!
