Motohiro Hata – Raspberry Lover Music Video

Motohiro Hata’s 23rd single, released in November 2019.

While Hata is strongly associated with singing ballad-type songs using a beautiful mixed voice, in this track he effectively employs a mixed voice with a strong chest voice—more natural voice components—to deliver a fairly powerful high tone.

In the chorus, especially in the phrase where he sings the song title, the voice can get tight if you force it, so practice keeping your throat open to produce high notes without strain.

Motohiro Hata “Stellar Days” Music Video

Stellar Days by Motohiro Hata, famed as the theme song for the anime “A Star Brighter Than the Sun,” is a masterpiece.

While the anime centers on romance, the lyrics carry a somewhat grand impression, yet they mesh well with the show, making the song highly memorable.

It leans toward the emotional side, and the verses through the pre-chorus evoke a dreamlike atmosphere.

With so many facets packed into a single track, it’s a piece that grows richer the more you listen.

Be sure to check it out.

Motohiro Hata – “Sumire” Music Video

This is Motohiro Hata’s 20th single, released in February 2016.

It’s a very refreshing song that evokes the gentle sunshine of spring.

Hata’s light, lively vocals further enhance that effect.

If you sing this at karaoke, there are parts—such as the latter half of the chorus—where the melodic range is a bit wide, but once you get past that, it’s quite easy to remember and sing.

If you’re not comfortable with high notes, be mindful of the key setting and give it a try.

A good tip for making it sound nice is to avoid forcing your voice and sing softly.

Put magic in your pocketHata Motohiro18rank/position

Motohiro Hata “Put Magic in Your Pocket” Music Video

A message that “stands by” you, not seeking strength, but one where everyday, small words and memories gently push you forward—even if you pause while continuing to walk.

It’s the theme song for the TBS Tuesday drama “Mirai no Musuko: A Son Fell Into My Life After 10 Years Without a Boyfriend!” starring Mirai Shida, released for streaming on January 20, 2026—a warm medium-tempo ballad by Hata heading toward his 20th anniversary.

The A and B verses sit in a relatively calm range, but the chorus goes high.

If singing the high notes in chest voice is difficult, falsetto fits the song’s vibe perfectly.

Watch the lyrics and pitch bar closely and aim steadily as you sing.

Metro FilmHata Motohiro19rank/position

Motohiro Hata / “Metro Film” (Short Ver.)

The lyrics Hata Motohiro writes are so heartrending and sentimental—they really seep into your heart, don’t they? This song, too, is packed with imagery that conjures up all sorts of scenes, yet it carries a certain melancholy… it truly resonates.

I’m sure everyone who listens can relate to the lyrics that reveal so many regrets and doubts.

Its simple structure also makes it easy to sing at karaoke, don’t you think?

The Milky Way in MayHata Motohiro20rank/position

Gogatsu No Amanogawa

An achingly tender yet warm acoustic number that makes you want to listen while gazing up at the night sky in the season of fresh greenery.

Depicting the journey to visit a loved one who lives far away, this piece is included on singer-songwriter Motohiro Hata’s single “Dialogue Monologue,” released in April 2014.

Created for the live show “GREEN MIND,” which centers on solo performances, it captivates with a vivid, immersive sound born from sessions with fellow musicians.

The sense of distance entrusted to the Milky Way motif tugs at the heart, making even the long stretches of not being able to meet feel precious.

It’s a song that will gently accompany you on a quiet night drive or when you want to be alone with your thoughts.

Motohiro Hata – Afterimage (Official Music Video)

This is Motohiro Hata’s fifth digital single, released in July 2022.

It was used as an insert song for TV Asahi’s Thursday drama “Roppongi Class.” While the song is a ballad that conveys a gently melancholic mood throughout, what becomes crucial when singing it at karaoke ultimately comes down to vocal expressiveness.

It’s important to avoid rough or careless delivery even in the high notes, and I feel it’s also essential to fully understand the lyrics’ content before singing.
