Kyoko Koizumi’s Most Popular Songs Ranking [2026]
Kyoko Koizumi, who debuted in March 1982 with “Watashi no 16-sai,” was the idol of idols in the 1980s.
She was widely supported not only by boys but also by girls, and she served as a leader for people of her generation at the time.
Not just a fashion icon, she was a trendsetter whose radio recommendations could shine a spotlight on authors—like a compass for the era—and her influence remains enormous today.

Kyoko Koizumi’s Most Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (1–10)
Fade OutKoizumi Kyoko8rank/position

Many people in their late forties may have admired Kyoko Koizumi’s looks and personality.
In that case, I recommend this song, “Fade Out.” It features the heavy synthesizers typical of the late 1980s.
You might think of it as dance music, but the vocal line is a gentle blend of kayōkyoku and jazz, so it should be easy to sing.
The very long rests also make it easier to perform.
witchKoizumi Kyoko9rank/position

A delicate, literary world of witches—quite different from the images of vampires or zombies.
Sung by Kyoko Koizumi, this song portrays a woman’s earnest wishes and inner conflict.
Released in July 1985, it reached No.
1 on the Oricon charts.
Despite having no tie-ins with TV dramas or commercials, it captured many hearts with a charm that transcended the idol pop genre.
The lyrics, expressing the feelings of a woman suffering in love, depict themes of love and jealousy through a longing to transform into a witch.
It might be the perfect song to listen to on Halloween night, as you think of someone dear.
Smile AgainKoizumi Kyoko10rank/position

It was released in 1987 as Kyoko Koizumi’s 23rd single.
When performing the song, Koizumi herself played the ocarina during the instrumental sections between the second and third verses and in the final outro.
It reached No.
2 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.

Magical of the WindKoizumi Kyoko11rank/position

This song, which conveys the warmth of spring, was used as the ending theme for the 1984 film Doraemon: Nobita’s Great Adventure into the Underworld.
It was released the same year as Kyoko Koizumi’s ninth single, “Elegant Mermaid of the Seashore / Magical of the Wind.”
First timeKoizumi Kyoko12rank/position
This is a song that was broadcast on NHK’s “Minna no Uta” from December 3, 1987 to January 1988.
The story—about someone who knows he’s not good at fighting but can’t stand by while the girl he likes is being bullied, and ends up confronting the bullies without thinking—expresses what true strength is.
Glamorous Tearful GirlKoizumi Kyoko13rank/position

The seventh single by Kyoko Koizumi, released in November 1983.
The song portrays a woman moved to tears by romantic feelings and anxiety, featuring an up-tempo yet wistful melody.
It peaked at No.
3 on the Oricon weekly chart, with total sales of 348,000 copies.
School HeavenFingāfaibu/Koizumi Kyōko14rank/position

Gakuen Tengoku is a legendary song that sparked a sensation when it was released by Finger Five, a group of five siblings from Okinawa.
It later saw a resurgence when Kyoko Koizumi covered it.
Even to this day, it’s a beloved track that gets covered from time to time and used in commercials.
If you pick it as the closing song, it might just hype everyone up enough to say, “One more place!”
