[Alexandros] – Wataridori (MV)

This song is a classic loved even beyond rock fans! The band [Alexandros] enjoys immense popularity in the Japanese rock scene, but they’ve now won over people who don’t usually listen to rock as well.

I’d say this track was the turning point that earned them such broad appeal.

Above all, the chorus melody delivered with that expansive high-tone voice is exhilarating! It would feel amazing to sing, but it’s probably tough for the average male vocal range.

If you feel you can’t hit the notes, don’t hesitate to lower the key!

Hyokkori Hyotan Island Spring Bon Odori Festival in LaLaport Nagoya Minato AQULS

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!

Sakanaction / New Treasure Island -Music Video-

A five-member rock band, Sakanaction, whose name was chosen to convey a positive stance of not fearing change, released this as their 11th single.

Written specifically as the theme song for the film “Bakuman,” the track strikes a superb balance between retro and modern elements.

From the vintage variety-show atmosphere evoked in the music video to the contrast between the verses and the chorus, it’s the kind of song that would really get people going if recreated at karaoke.

Comical yet meticulously arranged, it’s an excellent pop tune recommended for karaoke.
