Koda Kumi / Dreaming Now!

This is Kumi Koda’s “Dreaming Now!”, which was chosen as the theme song for NTV’s 2013 Volleyball World Grand Champions Cup and became a hot topic at the time.

Eh YoKōda Kumi37rank/position

Kumi Koda gives first performance of HANAZONO official support song “Eh Yo” at the Rugby World Cup 2019 100 Days to Go Kickoff Event

The song table tennis player Kasumi Ishikawa loves listening to is “Eh Yo,” sung by Kumi Koda.

This track was written as a support song for the Rugby World Cup 2019 in Hanazono.

Since Osaka’s Hanazono was one of the host venues, the title “Eh Yo” is said to be a play on the Kansai dialect phrase “ee yo” (meaning “it’s good” or “sure”).

It’s a playful, Osaka-themed touch that’s pretty fun.

It’s a rock-style number that really showcases Kumi Koda’s cool, powerful presence.

Highly recommended when you want to get pumped up!

FREAKYKōda Kumi38rank/position

Kumi Koda / FREAKY (from the album 'SUMMER of LOVE')

It’s a cool song that’s very Kumi Koda.

The tempo is tricky, so it’s quite hard to sing at karaoke.

The lyrics express the feelings of a cool, confident woman.

The music video also feels unconventional for Japan—stylish like an overseas artist.

A refreshing track featuring Kumi Koda’s cool-yet-cute vocals and a samba-inspired melody.

Perfect for a drive.

Her powerful singing, together with the lyrics, inspires dreams for the future and the courage to take the first step.

It was the theme song for the 2006 film “Crayon Shin-chan: The Legend Called: Dance! Amigo!”

Guess Who Is BackKōda Kumi42rank/position

Kumi Koda -KODA KUMI- “Guess Who Is Back” (Lyric Video)

“Guess Who Is Back” is a popular song by Kumi Koda that was also used as an opening theme for the hit anime Black Clover.

It’s a cool, stylish track in a so-called rap-rock/mixture-rock style, featuring a somewhat heavy beat and distinctive distorted guitar.

The vocal melody is very simple, so even people who aren’t confident singers may find it relatively approachable.

I think the key to performing this song is how coolly you can nail the parts that are sung in a rap-like style in the original.

The chorus melody might be a bit tough for those who struggle with high notes, so be sure to check the key carefully before you sing.
