Motohiro Hata – “Himawari no Yakusoku” Music Video

Himawari no Yakusoku, popular as a Doraemon movie theme song, gives the impression that a wide range of people sing it.

The overall vocal range is D#3 to A#4, so men should be able to handle it without strain if they sing calmly.

Since it’s a ballad, the melody line is simple and easy to remember, and the more carefully you sing, the more accurately you can hit the notes—making it a good choice for scoring systems.

There are many long tones, so if you focus on the pitch bar and sustain to the end, your score will go up.

For the chorus’s highest note, A#4, lift your facial muscles and aim to produce it easily without forcing or belting—think of delivering it lightly and gently.

Motohiro Hata “Icarus” Music Video - Film ‘Icarus: The One-Winged Town’ Ten Years and Eternity ver.-

Singer-songwriter Motohiro Hata has been active since the 2000s.

It’s truly remarkable that he has continued to thrive at the forefront for so many years with a musical style that resonates with young people.

I think many middle schoolers are fans of his as well.

Among Hata’s songs, the one that’s particularly easy to score high with at karaoke is Icarus.

Partly because it has a story-like feel, the overall vocal line is arranged to hold back on sheer power.

In other words, it’s a song that showcases the lyrics, so the melody isn’t very difficult.
