Yoshimi Iwasaki Popular Songs Ranking [2026]
TouchIwasaki Yoshimi1rank/position
Touch features a catchy, refreshing melody.
It served as the first opening theme for the Fuji TV anime Touch and is also famous as a Koshien stadium cheer song.
It remains beloved today as a classic from the Showa era.
The song’s overall vocal range spans A3 to B5: while the first verse is sung quietly, the range climbs quite high toward the chorus.
When singing, be careful not to strain.
Using gestures or moving your body to the rhythm helps you stay relaxed, so you can produce sound even when singing lightly.
Especially in the higher parts, swinging your arms boldly can give you momentum and make it easier to project your voice.

In fact, it’s a “hidden Showa-era classic” beloved by many fans.
youthIwasaki Yoshimi3rank/position
A ballad by Yoshimi Iwasaki that etched itself into many fans’ hearts as the ending theme of the 1985 TV anime Touch.
The lyrics, sprinkled with symbols of student life—like the bench by the field and the buttons on a school uniform—delicately portray the ache of passing time and feelings too deep for words.
Hiroaki Serizawa’s calm melody layered with Iwasaki’s clear, transparent vocals creates an airy sense of nostalgia.
Released as the B-side to her 21st single, “Ai ga Hitoribocchi,” the single reached No.
10 on the Oricon charts.
In 1986, it was also chosen as the entrance march for the 58th National High School Baseball Invitational Tournament, gaining popularity beyond the realm of anime.
It’s a recommended track for those who want to quietly reflect during graduation season or gently awaken the emotions of days gone by.
Curious GeorgeIwasaki Yoshimi4rank/position
You might be a bit taken aback at first, since it starts off like a jazz tune, but once the singing begins it’s a fun anime song.
It has a vibe like children’s Western pop.
The melody naturally makes you keep time with your body, so it could be handy as a eurhythmics piece, too.
The lyrics, which invite you to head out in search of thrilling, heart-pounding adventures, are sure to delight children.
Red and BlackIwasaki Yoshimi5rank/position
It was released in 1980 as Yoshimi Iwasaki’s debut single.
About a month after her debut, she performed the song at the 9th Tokyo Music Festival held in 1980, winning the Grand Prize in the domestic competition and advancing to the world competition.
On the Oricon chart, it peaked at No.
19.
Sorry, darling.Iwasaki Yoshimi6rank/position
It’s come full circle and connects with today’s city pop boom, so I can’t help but hope young people now will give it a listen.
The slightly dance-like parts are plenty upbeat and easy to enjoy.
The song portrays a cute woman, but it gives a relatively light impression, and I even get the sense that the “darling” isn’t all that angry to begin with.
cool breezeIwasaki Yoshimi7rank/position
It’s a single released by Yoshimi Iwasaki in May 1980, which was used in a Shower Cologne commercial.
There’s an anecdote that because Iwasaki is shy, the cover photo was taken from a distance.
Its highest position on the Oricon chart was 18.
