KANA-BOON is a rock band that has remained at the forefront of the scene for many years, working on anime theme songs and more.

Recently, their sound has grown more delicate, featuring a style reminiscent of early Unicorn.

Their new song, “Horarara,” showcases that soft musicality evocative of the early-2000s Japanese rock scene.

The vocal range is about average, and the melody line is extremely simple, so as long as the key suits you, anyone can sing it without trouble.

With recent collaborations with artists like HYDE, the rock band MY FIRST STORY has been gaining even more momentum.

They’re known for a hard style that’s essentially hard rock with a touch of heavy metal.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is their new track, “Merry-Go-Round.” It features a nostalgic tone with a hint of kayōkyoku (Japanese pop) essence.

The vocal line is simple, and the death-voice parts are used as chorus rather than the main vocal line, so even those who can’t do death vocals can sing it without any problem.

RADWIMPS is a band that boasts overwhelming popularity not only among teens but also among people in their 30s.

They keep releasing hit songs with catchy, memorable phrases every time.

Among their works, the song I’d recommend for those who aren’t confident singers is Kanata Haluka.

This track is arranged as classic J-pop.

While it’s on the longer side compared to typical songs, it doesn’t require belting, so I think you’ll be able to sing it without any trouble.

This is the theme song of the blockbuster animated film “Your Name.” Right after it became available for rental, it was often hard to get a copy.

As a romance film aimed at students, the song is currently very popular among junior high and high school students.

The film’s quality is a factor, of course, but it’s also a wonderful song with a timeless melody.

RADWIMPS, the popular rock band that has been consistently releasing hit songs since the 2010s.

Their new track, “Daidan’en feat.

ZORN,” is a number with strong hip-hop elements, featuring a collaboration with rapper ZORN, who enjoys tremendous support from heads.

That said, Yojiro Noda’s verse leans toward orthodox Japanese rock, so the vocal line isn’t too difficult.

Many people may not be confident in singing but are good at rapping.

If that sounds like you, definitely give this song a try.
