TWICE’s “TT,” which expresses crying with its signature TT hand gesture choreography, is recommended because the chorus moves are relatively easy among their songs.

It’s of course cute when female employees dance it, but it would likely be a hit if male employees dressed in drag performed it too.

Like TWICE, if you coordinate outfits so that, while each is different, they share some common elements in color, shape, or overall vibe, it will create a sense of unity.

If getting together to practice is difficult, exchange videos of yourselves dancing and fine-tune things by comparing them.

Shake It OffTaylor Swift65rank/position

This is Taylor Swift’s hit song “Shake It Off.” It’s popular with people of all genders, but it’s especially beloved by girls.

The song is cute, and the dance is adorable and eye-catching, but since many parts of the choreography in the music video are quite challenging, let’s perform it with an original dance instead.

A uniquely catchy pop-rock tune with an irresistibly memorable melody and a dash of irony about modern society.

This message song from UNISON SQUARE GARDEN vividly portrays contrasts between sweet and bitter, the subtle discomforts lurking in everyday life, and the tension between individuality and equality.

The more you listen, the more you discover, and its charm will have you humming along again and again.

Released from the album “Ninth Peel,” recorded in May 2015, it was used as the ending theme for the TV anime Blood Blockade Battlefront.

It’s a song we especially recommend to anyone trying to keep moving forward, even while feeling lost amid hectic days.

When it comes to classic cute songs, it has to be this one! “Kabutomushi” is one of Aiko’s most popular tracks.

Comparing someone you love to a rhinoceros beetle is so quintessentially Aiko.

Something that could feel tacky without the right touch ends up utterly charming—so impressive.

The falsetto at the end of the chorus is known to be a tricky spot in karaoke, but it’s incredibly pleasant to listen to.

It’s a wonderful song that leaves you with a sweet, slightly bittersweet feeling!

If you’re looking for a mature love song, we recommend “Anata ni Koi wo Shitemimashita.” When it comes to chay, her husky voice is definitely the most captivating, right? You can fully savor chay’s husky vocals in “Anata ni Koi wo Shitemimashita.” The slightly retro, Showa-era style melody gives it a nostalgic feel.

That said, it’s basically modern at its core, so even teens can enjoy listening to it.

Be sure to check it out!

As for the opening theme of the anime “Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid,” the chorus dance is very cute.

It might be a great idea to try dancing in a maid outfit just like in the music video.

The choreography isn’t very difficult, so why not give it a light, casual try?

A song that’s already familiar on TikTok has been released.

It’s the first collaboration between Airi DX and Shinako, packed with a free-spirited worldview over a pop track.

Released in March 2024, this piece marks the debut of the popular TikTok creator Shinako.

Airi DX produced the project and also handled the choreography and music video direction.

With its unique touch incorporating dance and the chewy sounds of gummies, it’s trending across TikTok and other social media platforms.

It’s a must-listen for those who love free expression or want a boost of positivity.
