Whimsical Romanticikimonogakari22rank/position

Ikimonogakari “Kimagure Romantic” Music Video

Kimagure Romantic is a song that makes everyone want to sing along.

There’s a simple bit of choreography in the chorus, so it’s guaranteed to hype up a karaoke session, and it’s a song that’s fun for listeners too! The overall vocal range is A3–D5; the highest note only appears briefly in the chorus, so the range is manageable overall.

The A melody isn’t high, so it’s good to sing it lightly, almost like you’re speaking.

From the B melody it gets more rhythmic, so keep a solid sense of tempo and be careful not to rush.

If you calmly cut off notes where they should end, you’ll lock into the groove.

The chorus has choreography and is easy to get carried away with, so be careful not to speed up the tempo.

At a karaoke event held by the vocal training school I used to belong to, one of the students sang this song, and everyone started doing the chorus moves—it got super lively and was a lot of fun.

Definitely give this song a try!

Ikimono-gakari HAPPY SMILE AGAIN LIVE

Written and composed by guitarist Mizuno, this is an irresistibly upbeat song that forces you to bounce back from heartbreak.

Even if you get dumped, it makes you feel like you can try your best from tomorrow so you can smile again.

I believe this song can encourage anyone, regardless of age or gender.
