Official HIGE DANDism Popular Song Rankings [2026]

Stand By YouOfisharu Higedan Dism29rank/position

Official HIGE DANDism – Stand By You [Official Video]

The song “Stand By You,” where the strings provide a nice accent.

Although this piece is categorized as J-POP, it features a somewhat tricky rhythm and calls for a groove that takes the beat on the offbeats, similar to Black music.

That might sound difficult, but among Official HIGE DANDism’s songs, this one falls into the narrower vocal range category.

Aside from one spot in the chorus and the bridge (C section), there aren’t any sudden jumps in pitch, so if you can lock into a more Western-style rhythmic feel, you should be able to sing it without any problems.

Official HIGE DANDism – Morning of the Beginning [Official Audio]

This is a song that captures the arrival of spring with a refreshing touch.

It portrays the mingled feelings of excitement and anxiety that come with a new life, alongside scenes like the sky visible from a station exit and a tree-lined avenue.

The protagonist strives to move forward while staying true to themselves in a new environment, offering moments anyone can relate to.

The track appears as the first song on the mini-album “Report,” released in April 2017, and is one of the defining works from Official HIGE DANDism’s indie era.

Vocalist Satoshi Fujihara wrote and composed it based on his experience entering high school, crafting a pop-rock number that’s perfect for the start of a new school term or a new chapter in spring.

It’s recommended for those who feel both anticipation and unease before a fresh start, or who want a push as they embark on a new life in spring.

Its brisk rhythm and bright melody line will give you the courage to take that first step forward.

For beginner drummers who shy away thinking “Higedan’s songs seem hard!”, here’s one of their tracks I’d like you to try—it’s relatively easy to play among their catalog.

It consists of repeated patterns of three similar beats, and there are no complex fills or grooves, so with a bit of practice many people should be able to play it.

The kick drum in this song uses a lot of offbeat strokes, so start by getting comfortable with that.

Once you can play the kick on the offbeats, you’ll definitely expand your toolkit for future performances! One thing to watch out for in this song is that the three types of phrases are similar and switch frequently between sections.

Until you’ve grasped the details of each beat, it’s easy to get mixed up, so at first I recommend practicing while looking at the sheet music to understand the structure.
