Ayumi Hamasaki / Aurora

For women in their late 30s, the most popular female singer was undoubtedly Ayumi Hamasaki.

I think many people listened to her songs during their youth.

Aurora is her new track.

While it features a more powerful delivery that differs somewhat from her past vocals, overall it’s shaped into an easy-to-sing vocal line that anyone can handle.

The range isn’t wide either, making it a song that’s easy to sing at a karaoke after-party and the like.

CAROLS, released by Ayumi Hamasaki in 2004, is a winter song known for its catchy chorus you won’t forget after hearing it once.

Among her songs, it features relatively many high notes, but its relaxed tempo keeps it from being too difficult.

By the way, the title is pronounced “Carols.” A carol means a celebratory song, so it’s a perfect choice for karaoke gatherings to celebrate something special.

Summer DiaryHamasaki Ayumi20rank/position

Ayumi Hamasaki / Summer diary (Short Ver.)

Ayumi Hamasaki’s “Summer diary” is a song about the bittersweet feelings of wanting to stay together with someone even after summer ends, yet realizing you can’t.

It’s included on the mini-album “sixxxxxx,” released in 2015.

While sensing the changing seasons and the shifting relationship between the two, the song expresses a strong wish to stay together until the very end.

But since they ultimately can’t be together, they carefully write down the beautiful memories they made in a diary so they won’t be forgotten.

It’s a diary that, truthfully, they wanted to fill with many more joyful memories they would create together from now on.

Why not write down your own summer love you never want to forget in a diary, too?
