flumpool “Kimi ni Todoke” Music Video

flumpool’s “Kimi ni Todoke” is the perfect song when you want to light up the karaoke room—especially if you want to win over women’s hearts.

It’s a classic that dominated the charts for 11 weeks in 2010 and also drew attention as a movie theme song.

The lyrics overflow with honest feelings for a loved one, leaving an impression of the singer’s gentleness.

But be careful! Their songs demand emotionally rich vocals in a high key.

With proper practice to strengthen your upper range beforehand, you should be able to deliver a performance that elevates the mood on the spot.

SPYAIR “Orange” Music Video (Theme Song for Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle: The Movie)

It became a massive hit as the theme song for the 2024 film Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle.

The same track was also chosen as the theme song for TBS Television and BS-TBS’s Volleyball Nations League 2024, powerfully expressing the passion of young people who devote their youth to volleyball, and marking a revival of the long-standing collaboration between SPYAIR and Haikyu!!.

It’s a rock ballad characteristic of SPYAIR, with easy-to-catch pitches that help you score steadily in karaoke.

The melody is basically structured so you can sing each phrase carefully.

It builds toward the latter half, and the vocal melody changes slightly in the final chorus, so it’s a good idea to review that part thoroughly.

Fujifabric – Youth of Everything

It’s a hidden gem by Fujifabric that captures the melancholy of summer’s end and the sparkle of youth slipping away.

Lines like “When the last fireworks are over, will we change?” convey that inexpressible mix of anxiety and hope for the future, tightening the listener’s chest.

Released in November 2007 as an advance single from the album TEENAGER, the song was also featured as insert music in the drama SUMMER NUDE.

Its somewhat nostalgic melody will create a tender, emotional unity when sung at karaoke with peers.

Why not try it when you want to gently mellow the mood?

SUPER BEAVER “Gradation” MV (Theme song for the film ‘Tokyo Revengers 2: Bloody Halloween Arc -Fate-’)

This is SUPER BEAVER’s 17th single, released in April 2023.

It was selected as the theme song for the film “Tokyo Revengers 2: Bloody Halloween -Fate-.” It’s a very straightforward, up-tempo rock song with a relatively simple vocal melody, making it an ideal choice when you want to score high—aiming for a perfect 100—at karaoke.

There’s just one point to note: the key changes in the chorus, so be careful about that when you sing.

Also, if you can keep your voice from thinning out in the high notes of the chorus and deliver strong, powerful high tones, your performance will sound even better.

Try engaging your core around the solar plexus and avoid constricting your throat as much as possible; that’s the key to producing strong high notes.

Give it a try and see how it feels.

Banzai ~ So glad I loved you ~Urufuruzu40rank/position

Ulfuls – Banzai ~I'm Glad I Fell in Love~

This rock tune celebrating the joy of pure love is a fan favorite that showcases Ulfuls’ musicality to the fullest.

Its lyrics, which candidly express gratitude to a loved one, resonate deeply, and together with its bright, catchy melody, the song lifts listeners’ spirits.

Released in February 1996, it was included on the album “Banzai” and also drew attention as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Goddess of Victory.” Moreover, it won the Excellence Award at the 38th Japan Record Awards.

It’s a perfect track for getting pumped up at karaoke with friends or for reminiscing about special memories with someone important.

HONEYL’Arc〜en〜Ciel41rank/position

HONEY [15th L’Anniversary Live]

When it comes to artists that men in their 40s often listened to, doesn’t L’Arc~en~Ciel come to mind? This time, I’d like to introduce “HONEY.” One of my students practiced this song too.

L’Arc~en~Ciel’s vocal range is surprisingly on the lower side.

I think it’s easy to sing for people with a typical male range plus the ability to use falsetto.

The chorus is very clear and uplifting, so it’s easy to add dynamics, and rock fans will love it! On the flip side, the key might be how to keep the low notes from getting muffled.

If you’re not used to a certain range, both low and high notes can require a lot of breath.

When singing low notes, imagine releasing a slow, steady mass of air—your body will resonate more easily and you’ll hear your own voice better.

And above all, the groove matters! It also makes it easier to project your voice, so sing with energy and get into the groove!

The Zero Sense10-FEET42rank/position

10-FEET – The Zero Sense (Ending Theme Song of the Film 'THE FIRST SLAM DUNK')

Created as the ending theme song for the film THE FIRST SLAM DUNK, this track expresses the passion of pursuing dreams and the resolve to face hardships, all through the theme of basketball.

Its poetic lyrics skillfully weave in basketball terminology, and the signature high-energy rock sound of 10-FEET blends perfectly to heighten the film’s climax.

In December 2022, it was included on the album Collins and garnered major attention as the movie’s ending theme.

Symbolically portraying the doubts and traps players confront, the song vividly depicts the strength to overcome them and achieve one’s goals.

It’s a perfect addition to your playlist when you want to boost motivation during training or strengthen both mind and body.
